Zealous Family Advocate

Yusuf impressed us from our first meeting, with his compassion, humanity, and the genuine care he has for his clients and for their children. He has been extremely helpful in our efforts to cut through endless bureaucracy and incompetence (and seemingly bad faith at times) to accomplish the adoption... of our children from the NYC foster care system. Even after the goal of a case is changed to adoption, it takes years to complete, depriving children of full benefits from the permanency that the system claims to support. Yusuf is passionate, a tireless worker, and truly empathizes with the challenges families face. We strongly recommend him to anyone facing a painful and/or stressful family situation.

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.
