This is my 2nd applications within 4 years. The last case was also EB1-OR, but got RFE first, then got rejected.
This time, I got a long list of RFE. H1-B is in the 4th year. We are so frustrated. The attorney is not working hard on our case. And we were trusting her too much, and didn't do good job by ourselves. Now I have to completely rely on ourselves, not her any more. Folks, your help will be really appreciated.
The following is the attachment of RFE. For some items, I'm really confused, and no clue what to do. They were actually asking for everything. Comments/suggestions, please!

If the evidence includes participation as a judge of the work of others in the field, explain the criteria for selection as a panelist, reviewer, etc.
If the evidence includes original scientific, scholarly, artistic, athletic, or business-related contributions, submit evidence of the importance of such contributions to the field. Evidence that those outside the alien's circle of colleagues and acquaintances consider the work important is especially valuable.
If the evidence includes authorship of scholarly articles, explain the significance of the publications in which they appeared.
