As an immigrant myself, I can relate to my clients on a different level because I have gone through the process with my family. As a child, I saw how difficult it was for my parents to raise three small children in a foreign country. My father's disappointment with attorneys who could not deliver on their promises is a salient memory for me as a child. I remember translating the lawyer's bad news to my father, which made me so sad. As a child, it was this experience that made me want to become an attorney (in my mind a superhero) so I can help my father.
Today, I see my father in all my clients, which gives me the power and persistence to obtain the proper result. Although I wasn't able to help my father as a child, I get so much satisfaction in getting results for my clients even if it means taking the government to federal court to get it done.
I also owe immense gratitude to my wife, Deanna, who was the only person that believed in my dream of becoming an attorney. I decided to go to law school after I was married and had two small children. With my wife's love and inspiration, I was able to achieve my dream. I'm blessed and thankful to have her in my life.
- I dedicate my practice in immigration law to the memory of my father - Barkev Asatrian.

Best Immigration Attorney!
We originally went with two other attorneys. That was a big mistake. Both not only stole our money, but also created a huge mess with immigration. Last summer we consulted with Mr. Asatrian. We immediately switched to him because he was so informative and helpful right from the beginning. He helped u...

Thank you for sharing your experience in such detail. We are extremely pleased of the outcome and are grateful to have compassionate adjudicators at local USCIS in NJ, who recognized and ultimately agreed with our novel argument; and did the right thing in your matter.
