Transcript:
Hello. I'm Scott Berry, your co-host for Immigration Nation the podcast. Kleine Powell is behind the camera today and working production. We have a very special guest with us all the way. We're in Dallas. You're all the way from Beverly Hills, California... Lorraine D’Alessio. Hi, it’s such a pleasure and honor to be here today. Thank you so much for having me. Really, nice to meet you all. Lorraine, tell them a little bit about your firm. Absolutely. So we are one of the leading immigration law firms in the area of Extraordinary Ability. That is for those that stand out and have a distinction in their fields and also qualify for a visa or even a green card to come and work in the United States. We are also a full service immigration law firm, and we also do business transactional, corporate as well. The O-1 talks a lot about extraordinary abilities. But that's kind of vague. Can you talk a little bit more about who might be a fit for the O-1 and how do you even define extraordinary? Absolutely. So extraordinary ability is defined as this individual having a distinction in their field. And what is a distinction? It's that skill set, talent, what it is that you put forward in your particular field, that has caused you to stand out from others. It doesn't mean that you're one of the few that has actually risen to the top of your field. What we're talking about O-1 level is distinction. Green Card is one of the few that has risen to the top of the field. But for O-1, what makes you stand apart? And we've got to really drill into those details and it crosses - it goes across so many disciplines, so many fields, everything from tech, film, television, sports, I.T., security, business, circus performers, gymnasts.
