At Sarpa Law, our clients in the medical field recognize that our work speaks for itself:

• We represent some of the largest employers in the region, therefore actively working on a variety of physician cases every week of the year
• We are responsible for maintaining Jackson County as having the overwhelmingly largest number of J-1 waivers issued in Oregon’s history
• In Fiscal Year 2020 alone, the firm secured Oregon J-1 waiver #1 and #2 ahead of all other applicants and was responsible for approximately 1/3 of all waiver cases in the state
• 100% of our physician cases (J-1 waivers, H-1B, green cards, spouses, etc.) have been successfully approved as of present (this includes during the four-year Trump administration)
• As of 2021, all our clinic/hospital clients are referred by word-of-mouth and have remained with our law firm
• Clinics that previously never hired foreign physicians have successfully filled staffing shortages by using our law firm
• Physicians have personally contacted us to reuse our law firm multiple times, even when the fees are not covered by their new employer
• First attorney in Oregon to represent a Chinese J-1 waiver physician, a Jamaican J-1 waiver physician, and a St. Lucian J-1 waiver physician. Also, the first to obtain an employment-based green card for a stateless Palestinian J-1 waiver physician
