Excellent attorney - with him you are in good hands

I had the privilege of working with Salman Ravala during a particularly challenging negotiation with toxic business partners, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. From the outset, Salman demonstrated exceptional legal expertise, strategic thinking, and a deep understanding of both the legal a...nd interpersonal complexities involved in the settlement process. What truly sets Salman apart is his unwavering commitment to his clients. He went above and beyond to help me, providing not only strong legal advocacy but also much-needed reassurance during a stressful time. Unlike many attorneys who stick to regular business hours, Salman was always available—ready to answer questions, provide guidance, and ensure I felt supported at every step. His responsiveness and dedication made a world of difference in navigating this complex situation. If you are looking for a skilled, trustworthy, and results-driven attorney who genuinely cares about his clients, I wholeheartedly recommend Salman Ravala. His expertise, integrity, and tireless commitment set him apart, and I am incredibly grateful for his help.

Outstanding Litigator

I am so grateful to Mr. Ravala and his law firm which assisted my business in a commercial New York litigation matter. I found Mr. Ravala to be knowledgeable, experienced, and well-prepared. He fiercely advocated for us and we are glad to have him on our side.

Very sharp and strategic.

Mr. Ravala has been our international counsel since 2012, representing our interest in the U.S. He has played an instrumental role in the development and implementation of our legal framework from the onset and has advised our firm on legal matters since infancy to present. I hold Mr. Ravala in the... highest esteem, he enabled us to concentrate our efforts on our business side; handling some of our most complex legal challenges with relative ease in a timely and proactive manner on a consistent basis. We consider Mr. Ravala not only as our company counsel but a strategic partner. His upfront and sound legal advice coupled with a client centric work ethic and statergic acumen has benefited our company greatly. I would highly recommend Mr. Ravala to anyone for assistance with their legal matters.

Diligent Attorney!

Salman and his team have fought very had on my case. While other attorneys brushed me off, Salman took on my case and got a very favorable result. Not only is he very professional, he is always available to answer any questions and concerns. I highly recommend his legal services!

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.
