Using an existing approved I-140, can a H-1B be renewed any number of times, with new/multiple different employers, even without restarting any paperwork for GC with the new employer?
Yes, as long as the I-140 is not revoked.

I got my I-485 approval on July 20, 2004, ending a long nerve wrecking wait of almost 4 years. I would like to thank Rajiv S. Khanna and his staff for their outstanding work to help me in this important process.
I had to have my EAD renewed 2 times due to immense backlog. But I was not charged for the unexpected extra work.
I would like to show my special thanks to Leila Lehman, who was always there to answer instantly to all my questions during the I-485 processing.
Also, I would like to thank the entire staff especially to Diane Lombardo (Labor, I-140 and other paper processing), Suman Bhasin (for all those complicated and subtle questions), and Rajiv S Khanna (for indirectly answering my convoluted questions) and every one else who helped me during the process.
I have a couple of colleagues who went through the permanent residency adjustment of status processed by the team from the Law Office of Rajiv S. Khanna, and I have never heard anyone complaining.
I would like to extend my gratitude to the entire staff and thanks them for their professional assistance. For without it I would not have seen this day.
Dear Rajiv, Suman, Diane and Leila:
I wish to thank all of you for your excellent co-operation and help at all stages of our GC application.
On 7/20 we saw the online notice about the APPROVAL of our I-485 petition. We/you had filed an RFE on 7/16. Me and my family are very happy that the decision process was so quick, and all this would not have been possible without your valuable guidance.
At this stage I have two requests: 1) Most likely the approval notice will be received by your good office and we would like to have a copy of the same. Could you please email us upon receipt of the Approval, so we could forward you a fax number? 2) What is the next step after receipt of the I-485 Approval notice?
Once again many thanks to you and your excellent team for all the help all the way.
With best regards,
The KUPs.
