Our client, a citizen of Canada, is a professional bareback rider in the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association. Attorney Noaman initially filed an application to qualify our client as an alien of outstanding ability (O-1) in the athletics which was approved. After competing for 2 years on an O-1 visa, our client sought the assistance again of Attorney Noaman, but this time to secure his permanent residency. Attorney Noaman argued that our client was perennially ranked within the top of the world for the last several years and had multiple national accomplishments and magazine features in several national rodeo publications, including on the cover of Pro Rodeo News. Upon receiving his green card he continued to compete professionally with the expectation of winning a world championship in the future.
