Selected client case studies

These anonymised summaries describe selected matters and the attorney’s contribution. A petition filing is distinct from an approval; each case depends on its own facts.

L-1 transfer through approval and consular processing

An employee transferring to a U.S. operation required support through the petition and consular stages. Neha Hemmad coordinated USCIS approval documentation, assisted with interview preparation and followed up after the appointment. The client subsequently confirmed that the interview had gone well and that the passport was being stamped and returned. The matter demonstrates her involvement from petition approval through the visa-issuance stage.

L-1A petition for a multinational employee

A multinational employer sought an L-1A petition for an employee whose record required careful coordination across related businesses. Neha Hemmad prepared the support letter, forms, exhibit list and filing package, then worked with the employer to clarify discrepancies concerning the petitioning entity, staffing figures and overseas employment history. Her preparation focused on making the corporate and employment evidence consistent before the planned premium-processing submission.

L-1A ownership evidence following a location change

A business owner preparing a U.S. expansion changed the proposed operating location while the L-1A case was being assembled. Neha Hemmad assessed the immigration implications and identified the updated corporate materials needed to demonstrate the relationship between the overseas business and proposed U.S. entity. She also advised on documenting investment and ownership, coordinating with the firm’s corporate attorney as the revised structure was considered.

E-2 consular application submission

An investor pursuing an E-2 visa required preparation and submission of a consular application package. Neha Hemmad handled the submission and confirmed that the embassy had acknowledged receipt. Her work brought the application to the consular processing stage, with subsequent communications providing for follow-up as further updates became available.
