Decision Summary

The Director denied the petition by concluding that the petitioner's field, law, did not fall under the statutory categories of sciences, arts, education, business, or athletics. The AAO remanded the case, finding that the petitioner's work in international dispute resolution and arbitration has a direct impact on business, thus placing his expertise within the qualifying field of business and requiring a new evaluation on the merits.
