Best Lawyer in the NYC Metro Area

Reza Mazaheri is an outstanding lawyer and member of the NYC Metro Area Community. I have been lucky to count with his support through out multiple immigration processes. He is accesible, responsive, and highly efficient, his costumer service exceeds expectations. Most importantly, Reza's years of ex...perience make all the difference; upon arriving to the United States I used other services that only added anxiety to already cumbersome procedures. Reza's diligence and know-how make his practice highly recommended to anyone seeking quality representation.

Best Lawyer EVER!!

Mr. Mazaheri as well as his entire firm is absolutely "THE BEST!" The work extremely diligent and are absolutely on top of their game. I would definitely recommend Setimaz to anyone and everyone. They absolutely never skip a beat. I had no hopes what so ever of becoming an American Citizen until I me...t Reza. His legal team, Ms. Josie is definitely another asset to the firm that is always on-top of her game as well. If anyone out there is looking for a one-stop-shop for immigration and even criminal counsel...PLEASE GO SEE REZA & JOSIE!!

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!

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.
