5 star Lawyer

Yusuf is a consummate professional but is also a very caring person, who you feel is in your corner - beyond his role as your hired lawyer. He is very articulate and highly knowledgeable of both the law and the court system. In a nut shell there is very good reason why Yusuf is receiving all these... 5 star reviews - my own included.

Highly recommend!

Yusuf El Ashmawy is the best attorney I could have asked for to represent, and his commitment, compassion, and dedication helped my family get through a very difficult and lengthy legal process in family court. From our first meeting, he explained and planned with me in terms I could easily understan...d, and he was always very responsive whenever I had questions throughout the process. My case was very complex, involving an ACS investigation that threatened custodial rights as well as my career. There were also complicating factors such as an order of protection and visitation/custody petition which made our situation all the more sensitive. Mr. El Ashmawy was extremely experienced and knowledgeable on all fronts and was able to negotiate a favorable outcome as well as a complete dismissal of the case, which was crucial for my wellbeing, career and livelihood. Throughout this painful time, he was also highly sensitive to the fact that it was proving to be a traumatic experience for all involved and treated me with compassion and understanding throughout. He checked in with me frequently and made sure I knew what was happening at all times. His legal representation restored my faith in the justice system. If you're seeking legal help, I highly recommend Mr. El Ashmawy!

I couldn’t have been granted with any better lawyer

He a very hard working lawyer and fights for the rights of the child and or the parent in my case it was a family thing. And you know when someone is just working to get a check but not Yusuf he’s gotten things done faster then any other lawyer I was with before he cares about his clients and the fam...ily’s and he is well spoken in court he gets his argument out and shuts the court do the best lawyer I’ve every worked with.

El Ashmawy Provides Excellent Legal Services

Mr. El Ashmawy represented my wife both at the family Court and before ALJ. His knowledge of the law and professionalism is at the peak. He was able to get my wife the justice she deserved and cleared my wife's name. I have no hesitation recommending him to anyone in need of robust legal representati...on.
