I contacted Ismail through the recommendation from a friend to stop my deportation proceedings back in September. I was truly terrified and thought my life here in the US was soon to be over. Ismail kneW of some procedural error that USCBP made with my case and was able to halt my deportation and were currently fighting for my DACA status that was being revoked. He’s passionate and incredibly brilliant. Hire him while you can!
I don’t think I can find words to describe how grateful I am to Ismail. I had made some poor decisions to hold some illegal substances for a friend and ultimately was caught and charged with both Posession Class B and Class B with intent. Based on bad decisions I made when I was younger I was facing serious time in the House of Corrections. The DA tried to offer me a plea deal which without Attorney Mohammed I would have stupidly taken. Ismail kneW EXACTLY what he was doing and told me we would take it to trial. He is by far the best attorney I have seen in a court room. It’s like something you would see out if a movie the passion he has and the way he knows the law. Long story short I BEAT MY CASE and am a free man. He also helped me get a new job and since then I’ve been living on the straight and narrow. Ismail if you’re reading this I really don’t know what I would do without you. I love you man! Ismail is the best attorney that has ever stepped in a court room.
Once you have been charged with a crime, it is important that you retain an experienced attorney. Attorney Mohammed has handled hundreds of criminal cases, from misdemeanors to felonys. Call us for a confidential consultation.
The immigration process can be a daunting and intimidating process. My office is experienced in the naturalization process, deportation hearing as well as obtaining a visa or permanent residency.
I understand that walking in a court room can be intimidating. As your attorney, I will sit down with you and help you navigate through the judicial process.
The legal field is constantly changing and developing. I stay abreast of the latest developments in case law ensuring that my clients get the best representation.
In the field of criminal defense, I have successfully tried Operating Under the Influence cases, bringing many cases to trial and obtaining a Not Guilty. On drug possession cases, my clients have prevailed without going to trial by winning on Motion to Suppress.
I am honored to have been recognized by the National Trial Lawyers and American Society of Legal Advocates as a Top 100 Massachusetts Criminal Law Attorney.
Let my experience and expertise work for you. I will be there every step of the way with you.

Great Attorney
I would recommend Attorney Mohammed anytime. He took the time to speak with me and my family about my case. He was thorough about the case and did everything he said he would. He was easy to contact. If he couldn't speak, he would text me and let me know he'll call me back. I would highly recommend him

Calm and Collective, Reliable and Affordable.
He put his best into his work and make sure his clients are satisfied. Something my previous hired attorney failed to accomplished that cost me a lot more than Attoney Ismail Mohammed charged and came with victory. I highly recommend him and believe he will bring you victory.

Very Understanding and Helpful
Ismail helped me beat a case that was a false accusation against me. He knew what he was doing, but still listened and respected my wants based on the case. Ismail always got back to me when I had questions and always returned my calls. The judge gave the option of continuous without a finding but he protected my cori and wants and asked for trial. Trial date was today, case dismissed! I would recommend Ismail to people.

A Great, Honest & Knowledgab le Lawyer.
Attorney Mohammed represented me in a felony case in Medford court in 2011. He did a great job & won the case in trial. Although I was ready to plead guilty so long as I could get probation to avoid taking the chance of going to trial, Mr. Mohammed was confident that he would win the case in trial. However, the district attorney agreed to dismiss the case if I paid restitution within 3 months, I agreed. But, I could not pay the restitution after 3 months. So, when I went to court that day, I had to go to trial that day. per the judge's order. Although attorney Mohammed had not fully prepared for trial, he still won the case in trial before the jury of 12 that day. I could have gone to jail for 2 years that day. But, thanks to his great performance at trial, the charge was dismissed He is honest, knowledgable and made me feel comfortable by his side in court throgh the entire proceedings. Unlike many attorneys, he kept me informed at all times. I highly recommend him.

Hopeless
I hired Ismail Mohammod for 2 cases a Federal and Immigration case (For my husband) .First off,
He is very hard to get a hold of. Misses deadlines when papers need to be filed. (Files them late) There's about 3 times i went to court and he could not make it, (calls the court clerk while everyone is waiting on him ) ,one time he just didnt should up at all had the Judge, D.A and my family just wasting time. ( so embarrassing! ) Says he's going to visit my Husband and could not make it ( more than 10 times) After Attorney was not showing up to court my husband was so drained and hopeless he just wanted to take a plead and get this over with. There was no way this lawyer can win a trial. Than my attorney ends up losing his license getting suspended for four months. He says he's going to issue me a refund for the immigration case. Went from a refund from $4,000 then he saying that he doesn't owe me nothing, then he saying he will work with me and give me about $1,500 then he doesn't pick up my phone calls and sends me no check. NOPE , sorry! I contacted Massachusetts Bar Association filed a complaint waiting on hearing.

careless lawyer
I hired him for $1200. I asked him about an issue I had, He said yes, and he is confident I will get the citizenship since my background is clean.
The first day, I paid him $600 and we signed a contract. I sent him the application filled and ready with all required documents. All he did was copy & paste.
I tried to contact him after that but he ignored my phone calls, texts & emails. About two months later, I texted him and told him, “I will find another lawyer if you can’t work on my case.” That night he called me and asked to see me. I went to his office. He asked for the other $600 so he submits the application. I paid him and he submitted my application.
Two days before my interview, he called me and asked to see me. He said, “will go over some questions.” I went to his office but he was late about hour for our appointment. He did not say anything important. He asked me if I paid him yet. I showed him the receipts. The total of $1200.
On the day of the interview, he did not show up until I sent him a ton of texts. He came, in jeans, just because he was in the building for someone else. He forgot that my interview was on that day. He was not ready. No paperwork, nothing. With the first question from the officer about the issue I had in my case, he told the officer that we will withdraw the application.
I lost my case, my money and time. I had to reapply.

He won’t fight for you and doesn’t care , not worth!
He didn’t fight for me as my representative my attorney. He told me don’t worry we got this but when we got to court he agreed to everyone else but me. After the court he had to handle some paper work for me and he didn’t do it. I called, text and left voice message and he never returned my calls. I had to find myself a different lawyer who will fight for me and do what he needs to do. Extremely horrible, I have another court date coming up and he didn’t even worried about it. He wants to do whatever he wants and not fight for you. I do not recommend him to anyone. It is the simple true! Thumbs down!

Don’t recommend
Told me one thing, sent a contract that contradicted everything he told me. There were several mistakes on the agreement form. When I asked him to correct it he became mad and rude.
