Writ of Mandandus can take 18 months or longer.

Closing the case out and refiling can present you with the same background checks all over again, which will prolong the time.

I would only contact a lawyer who specializes in these type of cases, not just any immigration lawyer.

How many cases has this lawyer successfully completed to tell you this is the way to go ? Or is he just guessing ......

Do a search on Marc Ellis, a lawyer who may be able to help you, at least advice you. He is often mentioned here on VJ.
