My company has no CLO or GC. However, my company runs all in house legal opinions through its CCO, a non attorney. The CCO and I have had disagreements on points of law on several occasions, but regulatory actions have backed up my opinions. Regardless, the company values the layman's point of view more than mine. I do not feel appreciated by this company in my current role.

L1 extension petion filed about 6 months ago. USCIS website says Texas service center takes between 3.5 to 5.5 months to process I-129. The case inquiry date has also passed the date my petition was filed and yet no response. Is this normal? I reached out to my firm's immigration attorney assigned to my case and they're not responding as well. Is there anything I can do at this point?

Do I need a new H1B Stamping? I extended my visa last year (new expiration date: 2024 Summer) and got my visa stamped accordingly. Since then, I changed firms and transferred my visa, which now has a different expiration date (i.e 2024 Winter). I honestly don’t know why the date got longer with just a transfer. Anyway, would I need to get my visa stamped again since the date of current i797-A (winter 2024) is different from my previous i797-A/latest visa stamp?
