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!

Knowledgeable and Caring Attorney - Highly Recommended

I recently worked with Shervin on my O1B filing (entertainment-music), and I couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. Shervin was incredibly knowledgeable about my specific situation and took the time to thoroughly explain all the procedures and different pathways available. He really help...ed me choose the best course of action. His initial estimate of my chances of approval was spot on, and I got approved immediately! Throughout the whole process, Shervin guided me through any issues that came up, always suggesting the best steps to take. He wasn't just professional and well-prepared; he was also super approachable and easy to communicate with, as was his entire team. The fee structure was reasonable, transparent, and offered great value for the quality of service. I always felt well-informed, and Shervin made sure I understood all the legal aspects clearly. He prepared my case with such care and attention to detail, ensuring the best possible outcome. If you're looking for an attorney who's knowledgeable, supportive, and gets the job done, I highly recommend Shervin!

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
