Lost H1B approval.. Help Please !

Unfortunately, I lost my original H1B approval notice which is sent to me. I enquired through my attorney to file a duplicate copy of the approval and he says he would charge the same as H1B filing which is $900 + $185 for the application fee.. This is really too costly for me. Can anyone give me any advise or alternative for this.

Is there a way I can get stamping with the copy of the approval notice !?

Can I use the copy of the approval notice and file for the duplicate thro an other attorney who might be little cheaper ?!

Can I do request for the duplicate copy myself instead of going thro an attorney

Please help me with any other possibilities if there is any.. My previous stamping expires in Jan 2005.

Any help is much appreciated .. Thanks, Jay
