Elizaveta Eisenberg

Елизавета (Лиза) Айзенберг

Elizaveta (Lisa) Eisenberg (Eisenberg Law Firm, PLLC, New York) is an immigration attorney with long experience in business immigration (practicing since 2006): the O-1A/O-1B, EB-1A and EB-2 NIW talent visas, including structures that use your own company as the employer. In the community she has a strong reputation for IT cases: there are confirmed O-1 and EB-1A approvals, including difficult cases after a denial. Clients value her honest assessment of the odds - there are known instances where she said plainly that EB-1A was premature and suggested going via EB-2 NIW. A few caveats: feedback mentions email-response speed can be slow, and after an approval she may offer additional paid services (for example interview preparation) - clarify scope and price up front. She actively runs free talks and webinars in the community.

Positive (8)

  • Positive from the community (Telegram)6/4/2026

    I got a free consultation with her through a community livestream; I cleared up some technical EB-1 questions. Beforehand I filled in the data in their AI-assisted system mentioned at the webinar - it is convenient that part of the materials is already structured by the time of the meeting.

  • Positive from the community (Telegram)2/6/2026

    I worked with Lisa Eisenberg for several years on different strategies. From the start she honestly said I did not qualify for EB-1A yet, so we went with EB-2 NIW; later, with stronger achievements, we urgently prepared and filed EB-1A and changed status without leaving the U.S.

  • Positive from the community (Telegram)1/23/2026

    Our case: EB-1, dual citizenship; in Warsaw we got the visa approved for the whole family. We submitted a non-Russian passport, not from the restricted-countries list. The attorney was Lisa Eisenberg (New York).

  • Positive from the community (Telegram)4/28/2025

    I worked with Elizaveta Eisenberg on an IT case. She has good IT-specific experience and overall it went smoothly. After the approval they offered an add-on "interview preparation" service - I declined, and that was fine. Otherwise a positive experience.

  • Positive Super Lawyers / firm site6/1/2024

    Per Super Lawyers and the firm site: practicing since 2006, running Eisenberg Law Firm since 2014, focused on business immigration for startups, founders and investors; the firm materials claim a high approval rate and hundreds of filed petitions. Super Lawyers recognition (2018-2019, 2024).

  • Positive from the community (Telegram)3/12/2024

    In consultation Eisenberg knows the nuances of professional associations and PR well: for some memberships she says outright "no, it will not count," for others that with the right framing it can be credited. Useful when you need to understand which evidence actually strengthens the case and which does not.

  • Positive from the community (Telegram)1/30/2024

    Success, O-1, consulate in Yerevan. We started in March and filed in September: books and publications, IT products, teaching and an online course, organizing an international conference and professional awards. The attorney advised how to strengthen the missing criteria.

  • Positive from the community (Telegram)12/22/2023

    I just got the O-1 visa; I could not have done it alone - the case was difficult, after a denial. Lisa Eisenberg helped me work through the nuances; I highly recommend her.

Negative (4)

  • Negative from the community (Telegram) unverified4/28/2025

    Overall a positive experience, but after the approval they pushed an "interview preparation" service for about 7,500 dollars; I declined and that was fine. Allow for the fact that after an approval they may offer noticeable add-ons - clarify what is included in the base price.

  • Negative from the community (Telegram) unverified12/19/2024

    I could not reach her and the email reply did not come right away. Per feedback, correspondence speed can lag, so build that into your timeline.

  • Negative from the community (Telegram) unverified12/19/2024

    Several people wrote that they could not reach her quickly: email replies did not come right away. Various chat estimates put the fees at around 8-12 thousand dollars. If fast email replies matter to you, agree on the communication format and timelines up front.

  • Negative from the community (Telegram) unverified7/25/2023

    On a one-hour consultation my IT profile was not "read" right away; I was told to come back when I had more material - the outcome depends a lot on how the documents are prepared.
