Hello all,
I have the following advice to anyone planning an O1.
Make sure you really qualify, how would you know? well here are few tips:
1. You must have publications/books/book chapters, etc.. (the more the better) and good ones too (Reputable journals, etc...)
2. Must be a good job with good pay (Universities research/teaching, etc.. for example)
3. This is the most crucial of all, get plenty of rec. letters + CV of writer (long version-10+ pages). In fact I believe this is the key to qualifying. It goes like this, if you relly are extraordinary you must be knwon in your field and known widely (internationally helps a lot), and if so people would be happy to write you rec. letters, lots of them, and good ones too (There is a template I can provide if there is demand).
4. Patents helps, any things out of the rodinary helps (invited talks, talks, international invitations, any things, etc...)
5. Mention in news, other publications, referenced work
6. It helps if you served as reviewer of other people work, grants, paelist, papers, Ph.D. Diss, etc...
Finally you must provide a detailed, organized, and long (I submitted close to 5 inches of sorted, organized and well detailed documentation+ more than 20 rec.letter- I even became picky in terms of what to sumbit - since I received lots).
Now as far as a lawyer goes, I personally believe a lawyer makes no difference in such case (like O1, your documentation and evidence is what makes it) in fact it is a waste of money. May be for the private sector things are different, i.e. need a laywer.
In all, ask yourself honestly, do I really qualify? and if you believe you do go for it and it will work, lawyer make no difference in my opinion.
Oh yeah use premium, somewhat I believe if you're saying you're extraordinary your employer (you) should be able to shell the $1000, it will say you're worth it.
Good luck,
