Can anybody suggest few Nafta/immigration lawyers who do the TN to Green Card processing ?
It will be better to talk to a lawyer directly rather than reading information from Lawyers websites.

No path from TN to Green Card as TN is not considered a dual intent visa.
If u ever say at the border that u intend to apply for Green Card during ur TN renewals they will not gran u TN.
If u want to apply for green card u need to transfer to H1B..

-- Not true, there are many TNers who got their GC without ever going through the H1B route (including me).
The point of telling the office about your desire to apply for GC is still valid. They can reject you based on that.
However there are cases like cdn_dude who might have gotten it.
cdn_dude, how did you do that? Did you applied while in the USA for TN extensions while the GC process was going on?

I also got my GC through TN route.
I was on TN during all my GC process and never went to H1 route.

-- TN can be refused upon suspicion of immigrant intent, TN not being a dual intent status.

Hi cdn_dude/shyboy
It will really help fellow TN to GC applicants if you could post all the steps/procedures you took to get GC while on TN.
The board admin could probably make it a sticky.
Appreciate your help
