if you get your MS, that along with your 25 years work experience is more than enough to port to EB2.
The min qualification for EB2 is 4 yr bachelor + 5 years experience , or MS
so even if they consider your 3 yr bachelor + 2 yr MS = 4 yr US bachelor, you have 25 yrs experience and so you will easily qualify.
good to see you taking steps to remedy your situation
Also be aware about all the details about the immigration process, its all there on USCIS.gov, free information directly from the ones responsible.
As i mentioned before you don't need your employer to file I-485, you just needed your date to be current. If your employer or lawyer said you needed your employer, that was completely wrong information. you only need a job offer letter at the most.
So you got screwed for no reason.
I-485 requirements
USCIS - Green Card Through a Job Offer
USCIS - I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status
Here is the I-485 form , take a look, its only your info. Nothing to do with employer.
