Got GC in 18months (RIR Labor application to 485 approval). Rajiv Khanna (RK) helped me out of a mess that I thought was impossible to solve. He helped out an unknown emailer, spent hours analyzing the situation over the phone and devised a game-plan. Guess what, without signing a retainer or expecting compensation. I still remember when I called other “big lawyer” for help, first thing her office wanted was my credit card.
Story began in summer of 2003. When I found out that my earlier lawyer had screwed up the whole 140/485 application and was eventually denied, loss of 4years of waiting. I then emailed RK for help. He patiently heard the story and advised that I should redo the whole application from point A. Even though dread of going through whole labor application all over again was overwhelming, RK was absolutely correct that earlier labor was approved under incorrect language, mistakes many inexperienced lawyers make.
Best thing is that he sticks by the books, remains honest about the situation and never promises miracles. Apart from RK’s excellent competency and vast experience, he has excellent well-trained support team. That really makes a huge difference because game-plan is one thing, while organizational support & efficient execution is other.

FAQs: EB-1C (International Managers and Executives): Eligibility for H-1B managers in the USA
Rajiv and Diane are the best immigration lawyers I've worked with in my 12 years in the US, across the several firms I've worked with over the years. I worked with them on my O-1 visa. Processing timeline delays with my PERM application nearly threatened my work authorization in the US. Rajiv and Diane worked on a tight timeline expeditiously not only to get my O-1 visa approved but also to get my green card approved, all within 6 months. This is the fastest timeline I have seen - they are a great team!
I had a great experience dealing with Rajiv Khanna ji's office. My US EB1A petition received amazing support. Being proactive and meticulous, Diane in his office is a terrific expert to deal with. I-140 approval went through a smooth process from start to finish. Rajiv ji's accessibility made sure I could make the proper choices when I needed to. Although at first I thought Rajiv ji was being unreasonable in asking that I gather and submit all the documents for the petition, I came to see that his demands were there to ensure my success. Rajiv ji's office is unquestionably the best place to go if you want to meet your US Visa milestones on schedule. I'm grateful to you, thank you Rajiv Ji.
I wanted to thank you for all your help - I really loved the petition you had made for me for my I-140. I think the quality of the petition was great and given the complicated nature of my case, your efforts made all the difference.
Some background about my case - my I-I40 petition was earlier handled by another legal firm who filed my case under the wrong category and had screwed up. As a result, my I-140 petition got rejected.
One of my friends referred me to Savita and Rajiv and they did an EXCELLENT job with my case. Rajiv personally counseled me and advised me on the approach that was best suited. Savita prepared the I-140 petition and did a very good job. My case got approved.
