We recently connected with Virginia Ivañez and have shared our conversation below.
Alright, Virginia thanks for taking the time to share your stories and insights with us today. Can you share a customer success story with us?
I wanted to share one of my client success stories because it includes a graduate of a local university who obtained a green card through our law firm! Imagine obtaining a green card in the United States simply because the government considers your presence in this country to be in the national interest. It is simply amazing and rare!
The National Interest Waiver is a seldom known type of legal pathway to obtain a green card in the United States. This client, a young, talented graduate of the University of Houston, approached my office presenting his stellar resume including an advanced degree, a Master of Science in Space Architecture from the University of Houston. Being a graduate of the University of Houston myself, I was eager to take on the opportunity to prove the case to the U.S. government that this client’s advance degree was so special that it was in the national interest to provide him with a green card and welcome him to the United States with open arms!
The initial case filing took at least 30 hours of professional work and two years later resulted in a green card approval for our client! Now, the United States is permanently benefitting from the amazing skills of a Space Architect who is on a mission to help expand the private Space Industry, design next generation Space Stations, and help lay the framework for human exploration on the Moon and Mars.
As always, we appreciate you sharing your insights and we’ve got a few more questions for you, but before we get to all of that can you take a minute to introduce yourself and give our readers some of your back background and context?
I practice employment-based immigration. My law firm represents foreign individuals who are coming to the United States lawfully through their talent, skills, a job offer, advanced degrees, or to invest. The lesser-known side of immigration is that we received thousands of foreign nationals every year who bring amazing skill sets and businesses to our communities and enrich our economy. These are the clients LOVI LAW represents.
Can you tell us about what’s worked well for you in terms of growing your clientele?
The most effective strategy for LOVI LAW has been sincerity. Lawyers are unfortunately often known for glamorized promises in exchange for money, however, our firm maintains a strict policy of providing its clients with realistic expectations. We want the client to know whether the money that they are investing in their process actually has a good chance at receiving an approval. The firm’s reputation stays strong when the client is aware of truthful expectations.
What’s worked well for you in terms of a source for new clients?
Customer referral. There’s nothing like a happy client who will refer other clients your way! I highly recommend providing excellent service to all your clients whether a small or large case because they are all equally important and will always remember the attentive team that they can trust!
