Asylum immigration client

Mr Shebar helped me and my family in our application for asylum in the United States. We left Afghanistan after the conditions became worse in 2021. We do not know what we would have done if he had not helped us.

Client

Mr. Shebar assisted me in litigating a breach of contract dispute over a loan installment agreement. He was thorough, patient, and answered all of my questions. I would recommend him to anyone seeking legal services.

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.
