<h2>What counts as "judging."</h2>
<p>USCIS reads Criterion 4 broadly — but only when the evidence is documented properly. Here's what we help match you to.</p>

<h3>Academic peer review</h3>
<p>Refereeing manuscripts for peer-reviewed journals or conference proceedings.</p>
<ul>

<h2>How the matching service works.</h2>
<p>A 60-day engagement. We do the outreach. You do the reviews. Documentation is automatic.</p>
</div>
<div class="steps">
<div class="step">
<div class="step-num">1</div>
<h3>Profile intake</h3>
<p>You share your field, publications, prior reviewing experience, availability, and target O-1A timeline.</p>
</div>
<div class="step">
<div class="step-num">2</div>
<h3>Targeted outreach</h3>
<p>We identify journals, conferences, and panels actively recruiting reviewers in your specialty — then make introductions.</p>
</div>
<div class="step">
<div class="step-num">3</div>
<h3>You review</h3>
<p>You accept invitations that fit your time and expertise. Decline anything that doesn't. Quality of review is on you.</p>
</div>
<div class="step">
<div class="step-num">4</div>
<h3>Documentation</h3>
<p>For each accepted review, Abigail collects the invitation letter and completion confirmation — formatted as O-1A exhibits.</p>

<h2>Common questions.</h2>
</div>
<div style="max-width: 780px; margin: 0 auto;">
<div class="faq-item">
<button class="faq-q">Can you guarantee a specific number of review invitations? <span>+</span></button>
<div class="faq-a">No. We can guarantee the outreach (a defined number of targeted introductions per engagement), but acceptance is at the discretion of the program. Most applicants in a fitting field receive 38 viable invitations over the 60-day engagement.</div>
</div>
<div class="faq-item">
<button class="faq-q">Is peer-review service legal advice? <span>+</span></button>
<div class="faq-a">No. Peer-review introductions are a non-legal professional service. Legal evaluation of how your accumulated evidence maps to O-1A criteria is a separate service provided by Abigail Legal Services, P.C. under separate engagement.</div>
</div>
<div class="faq-item">
<button class="faq-q">How early should I start this before filing? <span>+</span></button>
<div class="faq-a">Ideally 46 months before your target filing date. Most reviews take 48 weeks from invitation to completion documentation. Starting 60 days out is feasible but tight.</div>
</div>
<div class="faq-item">
<button class="faq-q">What if I already have one or two review invitations? <span>+</span></button>
<div class="faq-a">Even better. We focus on filling gaps — adding 24 more high-credibility reviews can move a borderline Criterion 4 into clearly-satisfied territory.</div>
</div>
<div class="faq-item">
<button class="faq-q">Do I have to use Abigail for my filing to use this service? <span>+</span></button>
<div class="faq-a">No. Evidence-building services are available standalone. But the documentation we produce is exhibit-ready for any attorney's package.</div>
