Excellent Immigration Consultation Experience

Dr. Marjan Kasra is very knowledgeable and easy to talk to. She listened carefully to my concerns and was genuinely willing to help with my spouse’s permanent residency consultation. Her office assistant, Amber, was also very helpful and handled my appointment professionally. I truly appreciate their... support and excellent service.

Dr. Marjan Kasra is not just an immigration attorney she is a force of hope, strategy, and integrity

From the very beginning, Dr. Kasra was the best thing that happened to me. She listens deeply, speaks honestly, and acts with purpose. What sets her apart is not just her legal expertise, but her genuine empathy you feel it in every conversation. As an immigrant herself, she understands the emotional... weight and complexity that comes with immigration journeys. That authenticity makes all the difference. I worked with her on my EB1A petition, and thanks to her and her exceptional team, I received my approval. It wasn’t a smooth ride I had RFEs, and that’s where Dr. Kasra truly shined. She crafted a powerful, fact-based, and compelling response that turned the tide. What I appreciate most? She’s not a cheerleader—she’s a realist. During the initial review, she told me I had a 50–60% chance. Once the case was finalized, she felt 70% confident. After the RFE, her confidence grew not because she’s blindly optimistic, but because she stands behind the strength of her work. She’s there when it matters most, and she never overpromises but she always delivers. To me, Dr. Kasra is now my immigration lawyer for life. I will go to her for all my family’s immigration needs, and without hesitation, refer anyone seeking guidance. If you want someone who combines legal precision, human compassion, and fearless advocacy, Dr. Kasra is the attorney to trust.

مهاجرت

حرفه ای، دقیق و منظم در آغاز خانم وکیل با واشکافی تخصص و تجربه حرفه ای من توصیه کردند سرفصل و روش درخواست مهاجرتم را چگونه تغییر بدهم و در تمام مراحل انجام کار تیم ایشان نهایت پشتیبانی و مشاوره های دقیق را به من دادند. در کل با توجه به تجارب متعددی که در همکاری با تیم های حقوقی در دوران حرفه ای ...خودم داشتم می تونم ادعا کنم یکی از بهترین تیم های حقوقی طرف قرارداد من بودند.

A True Professional with emphasis on results!

Ms. Kasra has been recommended by close friend. I happen to see the documentation that Lawmaks has put together. I have never seen such comprehensive and meticulous report. When I engages her services for my wife's change of employer H1B visa, the approval is granted in a record of 1 working day !!!!... Now, my case of L1A, I am supremely confident that I will be issued an L1A visa because of the thorough manner with which Marjan and Judy are building my case. Thank you very much.

Great experience fiancé Visa K1

I want to start out by saying we had the best experience working with Marjan and her team. I interviewed a number of attorneys ( in LA / San diego / Orange county ) for my immigration case. Marjan was the only person that we felt confident to sign the contract with . It was clear how knowledge...able and professional she is. I applied for my fiance for K1 visa . She explained each situation and step clearly, filed the needed documents and letters without delay, sent me the updates in a timely manner, and always answered my emails, calls and questions quickly. it took about 1 year for the USCIS process to complete even though it was during covid ! After approval , it only took 3 months until we got her Visa. They did a great job to get us appointment for the interview in less than 10 days which was unbelievable. She setup a zoom call a day before interview and went over every possible question that may be challenging which was very helpful for us and gave my fiancé lot of confidence on her interview date . Today we received her passport from embassy with her visa and we are so happy to start our life together and we will definitely use Marjan’s law office for further needs ( her Green card process) I want to thank Marjan for always having our back on everything. We appreciate you so much. Immigration matters are tough and very painful these days, but Marjan law office professionalism helped to ease that pain.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
