!!Excellent Attorney, Highly Recommended!!
Mr. Amir Sadaghiani SAVED MY LIFE. I was facing 3 criminal charges, further incarceration, and the potential destruction of my family and career. I found his practice via AVVO, and with only one other posted review at that time, I made the call for an appointment. I had prayed that I would be led t...

AMAZING, CARING ATTORNEY
So....I found myself in a mess of trouble. I was charged with a felony, third degree crime. I searched for an attorney, and I swear the spirits guided me to Amir Sadaghiani. He handled my case in a very courteous and professional manner. I was so stressed out and sick to my stomach over my situa...

Unconvinced that he affected outcome
In general did not find that he was willing or able to respond to concerns, only state how things could get worse. He failed to walk through outcomes and likely scenarios. I found no compelling evidence that he affected the outcome at all. There were multiple times when the hearing was postponed b...

Replied last March 04, 2019Thank you for your feedback. I have been checking my case records at length so that we can try and resolve this issue, and cannot find any case that matches this description. In my over 4 years as an attorney in private practice, I have never had a hearing adjourned – let alone a hearing adjourned on the day of the hearing. I make it a point of emphasis to return all phone calls, regardless of the time of day. This is a personal practice that I started when I was serving in the Orange County District Attorney's Office as an Assistant District Attorney. All my clients get my cell phone and can reach me 24 hours a day. Please contact me at my office, 845-576-6064, so we can find a solution.
