If you are searching for an excellent immigration lawyer, Reza Mazaheri is the one who you are looking for. He is not only best lawyer but also kind, honest, and even cool. He is the one you want to stay in touch even after your case is approved. I am a visual artist, based in NYC, have been living i...n here for 20 years. I held a student visa, I visa (journalist visa) for first 10 years and O1 visa (artist visa) for last 10 years. I was represented by other lawyer(s) before I met Reza and I’ve never been happy with any of those lawyers. Especially the last lawyer was nice in person but I’ve never been able to contact to them directly and his paralegal was like nightmare. I was so stress out every time when I extended Visa with them. I found Reza on this website while I was looking for a lawyer for my EB1-A (Green Card) process. First, I emailed his office, Sanjay contacted me and we spoke on the phone and he made me feel very confident about my case. Reza and his team including Sanjay paralegal other staffs are also amazing. After phone meeting, I had an appointment with Reza. My first impression about him was that he didn’t look like other stereotype of immigration lawyer. He was very calm, friendly and straightforward. I also explained about my husband who was holding TPS, asked possibility if I could file him as my dependent. He listened carefully said it’s not 100% guaranteed because TPS cases are more complicated but it would be worth try. My husband and I went back to his office and they explained the timeline, possibilities that might happen and attorney fee that we requested payment plan. We thought his fee was fair for the service. But later on, we realized that he did more than what we paid for ….
The process was very smooth and everything was so easy with them. They prepared paperwork quickly. I used to have to write my own recommendation letters, ask signatures for artist visa by myself because my old lawyers wouldn’t do this. But with Reza, after I gave my contacts list to his paralegal, she communicated with them directly; all letters were ready within 2 months. He was very responsible; he made me feel like he was always available. Normally I contacted him via email, sometimes when he got really busy, he replied an email and said he was busy but would get back to me in few days when I asked no rush questions and he really did. He also gave me the phone number that I could reach in emergency case. I didn’t want to use it but I did once when my father in Japan was in critical condition. I had to go to Japan with emergency travel parole. Then I almost couldn’t take flight back to NYC at the domestic airport in Japan. The flight attendance told me that they never seen this kind of paper before so I couldn’t go through the gate. I was panicked and texted Reza while I didn’t even know what time it was in NYC. Then he replied my text in next moment. I explained everything, he said I should request them to contact to DHS. So I requested it to them then everything was fine, I could take a flight. I texted him and said “Thank you and Sorry” and he texted me back and said “Great. Don’t scare me :)”. Even before, he always concerned about my father’s health condition and understood my stress coming along from it. He made us surprise sometimes especially towards to the end of the process. At the last meeting before GC interview, I was telling him I was so nervous about the interview, he offered us a glass of Brandy, and I thought he was joking, and then he really brought us drinks. How cool is that? He even came to our GC interview, just because he worried about my husband TPS situation. We’ve never thought he would come to the interview… Then, we received GC right after that. While we were waiting response from USCIS, he was encouraging us, too. He is the greatest lawyer and human being! Now you know, why I highly recommend Reza Mazaheri for your immigration attorney. He is the best lawyer ever.
