Hi,

Yes you can transfer your L1 to H1 but Regarding transferring your company L1 to another please get advice from more experienced people.

Thanks

L1 to H1 is possible - meaning filing for a fresh H1 while being on L1.

Changing company on L1 is not possible. L1 is only for intra-company transfers (within the same company)
Hope this helps!!

Not legal advice..
