ATTORNEY TESTIMONIALS:
– “NILA’s pleading review service gave us the extra confidence to challenge an unjust L-1A denial in federal court—and we won! Mary Kenney is a fantastic legal mind, litigator, and mentor. Any business immigration attorney ready to push back on USCIS’ unreasonable denials should work with NILA.” – Dominique Pando Bucci, Pando Bucci Law, PLLC, Miami Beach, FL
– “NILA provided invaluable advice on two different cases that both had favorable outcomes. I highly recommend utilizing their expert pleadings review. NILA’s Senior Attorney, Kristin Macleod-Ball, was knowledgeable, professional, and prompt.” – Professor Alexander T. Holtzman, Maurice A. Deane School of Law at Hofstra University, Hempstead, NY
