Exceptional Experience with my O-1A Visa Process

I’m a former professional tennis player, now working as a coach while still competing in racquet sports. From day one, during our consultation, Shervin gave me the confidence I needed. His professionalism and clear communication made me immediately decide to move forward with him for my O-1A visa cas...e. The entire process was smooth and transparent. Shervin and his team were always responsive, organized, and clear about what was needed from me. Every time I had a question, Shervin himself took the time to respond directly. He’s not only a great attorney but also an empathetic and genuine person who truly cares about his clients. We just received the approval of my case, and I couldn’t be happier. I highly recommend Shervin and his team to anyone looking for an outstanding immigration attorney. Without a doubt, I’ll hire him again if I ever need assistance with another visa in the future.

couldn’t have wished for a better attorney!

I honestly couldn’t have wished for a better attorney than Shervin! I was a bit nervous before starting the process since everything felt very overwhelming, but he made the O-1 process clear and manageable, always taking the time to answer my questions with patience and calm. Everything was handle...d smoothly and professionally, and my O-1 got approved right away. I felt supported every step of the way and really appreciated how approachable and communicative he was. In a nutshell, I highly recommend Shervin!

Had a Great experience working with Shervin Abachi

It’s been an absolute pleasure working with Shervin Abachi! I initially applied for an O-1 visa with another attorney, which resulted in an RFE and ultimately a denial. Shervin not only turned my case around but also secured an approval—without even receiving a Request for Evidence (RFE). Shervin’...s responsiveness and commitment are truly remarkable. He always got back to me promptly, answered every question with clarity and patience, and made me feel confident and supported throughout the entire process. His professionalism, respect, and determination to deliver the best results truly set him apart. I am incredibly grateful for his expertise and dedication, and I now recommend him enthusiastically to all my friends. If you’re looking for a lawyer who will go above and beyond to achieve the best possible outcome, Shervin Abachi is the one to call!

O-1 visa

I cannot thank Mr.Shervin Abachi and his incredible team enough for their work in getting my O-1B visa approved. From the very beginning, his team demonstrated exceptional expertise and professionalism, guiding me through every step of the process with patience and clarity. What stood out the most wa...s how easy it was to communicate with them. They were always available to answer my questions, address any concerns, and provide reassurance when needed. 

This was my second successful O-1 visa with Shervin , and I couldn’t be more grateful! I highly recommend Shervin’s legal team to anyone seeking reliable and professional visa support.

He is the best!!!

Shervin and his team were amazing to work with. They helped me get my O-1 visa in record time! Everything was done on time, and I didn’t have to follow up or worry about anything. They are super professional, efficient, and do their work really well. It was a pleasure working with them, and I will a...lways recommend them to others. Thank you for such a great experience!
