faculty in H1B

I am a faculty of management info system (not a tenure track one and there is no possibility of getting into such a position in foreseeable future...I want to say that way...). My school doesn't sponsor for Green-card unless someone is a tenure track faculty. steer clear. The situation now is such that if I change school at this moment, that will bring whole new problems due to changed (or soon-to-be changed) H1B rules. To qualify for EB2 thing-- I don't have enough publications -very few journal articles but I have lots of conference papers (national and intl...I have lots of these!) but the thing is there is almost zero citation (very very low) by others.....that always sucks. I have talked to some so called "good" attorneys like Chang/Chung etc...ones, but they came up with conclusion: "need more publications".... Getting frustrated of this all citation fiasco, I once literally told one of them: "Fuck you!" Well, that was to show my frustration. He politely said, "Ok... I am sorry but it is what it is".
I have tons of experience -including academic and industry though.

Now, I am seeking experts' suggestions on my particular situation. I know there are many others who are hanging on through similar situation. what are the available or possible options for green-card in my case? Please don't come up with suggestions like "contact with your attorney" or "see see ....this fu...d up guy" or "get married to a khairi or kali". thanks.
