Green Card for Spouse

After getting married in 2013, my spouse and I waited a long time before filing the papers to start the process of getting the Green Card. Part of our procrastination had to do with fears about cost, hassles, etc. Reza came highly recommended and was reasonably priced, so we decided to secure his s...ervices to guide us through the process. Long story short, it took as long as we expected it to (unavoidable), but Reza's confidence and expertise made it as hassle free as possible. The Green Card is in the mail and now that we look back, it feels like we barely lifted a finger (all thanks to Reza's immigration experience and overall organizational skills). We've thanked him in private and now publicly with this review!

zealous advocate

I was recently represented by Reza Mazaheri on a multiple count DWI charge. As a recent law school graduate, it was imperative that I hired not only a competent and knowledgeable attorney, but, also a zealous advocate. Reza provided me with superior services and guided me step-by-step throughout th...e process. As a result of Reza’s representation all charges were dismissed. I strongly recommend Reza to any that finds themselves in an unfortunate situation. Thank you Reza!

Customer oriented

They were knowledgeable about my case and seems to have extensive knowledge of deportation cases due to the fact that he was out of the country a lot. Friendly and accommodating, They have payment plans and submits the application as soon as all payments are made for the case and the filing fees. Ove...rall good experience.

Reza Mazaheri Law Practice....

Mr. Mazaheri is truly knowledgeable about the work he does, I had a very complicated immigration case, and consulted with several Attorney's and none of them could help me. I was getting lip service and every one of them was telling me, that I need to wait an additional 3years, before I can file my c...ase.... Mr. Mazaheri however was super helpful and found a loophole in the law, and got me my Citizenship within few months.. I was supper impressed, one thing about him, is that he would not give you any empty promises just to get your money, like some other low life Attorney's do. He will tell you they way it is, there are no If's or maybe's with him. it's either Yes I can do it. or No I can't do it... and make sure you get your free consultation, he is pretty good at that... and don't tell him I said that..LOL

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
