If USCIS says no

If USCIS says no, we do it again.

We only take cases we believe in, so we share the risk. If USCIS denies your O-1 petition and you have kept to the conditions on this page, we prepare and file it again at no additional legal fee. We do not refund the fee: a refund hands back your money and leaves you exactly where you started, without status. Doing the work again is the thing you actually need.

*The conditions below apply.

What is included

What comes back, and when.

What the fee covers, what happens on a denial, and what has to hold for the refiling to be included. Your engagement letter is the one that counts.

Your side of it

Six conditions.

They apply from the day you sign to the day USCIS decides.

  1. 01Show up to every government interview and appointment, and answer requests when they come in.
  2. 02Tell us the truth and the whole picture, with nothing left out.
  3. 03Keep your account with us paid up.
  4. 04Tell us in writing, within 30 days of the denial, that you want the refiling.
  5. 05Let us handle any RFE, NOID, or similar request. You can bring in other counsel for it, but that ends the included refiling.
  6. 06Meet the disclosure conditions below on prior denials, arrests, and immigration violations.

The terms

The guarantee depends on you having been truthful about your case and having given us what we asked for, when we asked for it.

It covers only the legal fee paid to Givance for the O-1 engagement described in your engagement letter. It does not cover government filing fees, premium processing, or any third-party cost. It is a promise about our fee, not about the outcome: USCIS decides, and nothing here changes that. We may change or withdraw these terms for future clients at any time; they do not change for anyone under an active engagement, including clients who signed under our earlier money-back plans, whose original terms continue to apply exactly as written.

There is no denial-based refund. The legal fee buys the work, and on a denial the work is done again rather than returned. The one thing we will not do is keep the fee and walk away.

The free re-file is one re-filing of the same O-1 petition, prepared and filed by us at no additional legal fee. Government filing fees and any premium processing fee for the re-file are yours. If, in our good-faith professional judgment, there is no valid basis to re-file, we will say so in writing rather than file something we do not believe. A re-file is a new petition, and USCIS decides it on its own merits.

You are eligible only if all of the following are true when we start and stay true throughout:

  • You have not been refused entry to the United States or denied a visa or other immigration benefit, unless you told us in writing before signing.
  • You have no arrests, charges, or convictions, including any that were expunged or sealed.
  • You have not violated U.S. immigration rules.
  • You have told us, in writing, every material fact about your case.

If USCIS sends a Request for Evidence, a Notice of Intent to Deny, or anything similar, we respond, and you give us what the response needs. You may hand that to other counsel instead, but doing so ends the guarantee.

One fee. One number. No menu.
