A friend recommended Elliot Amir Rahimi’s services, and after meeting with him, it was evident that we would entrust him with our immigration matters. His clarity and guidance through each phase made the entire process remarkably easy. His availability to answer questions anytime ensured a stress-fre...e and smooth journey.

Knowledgeable and sincere

It was a pleasure experience working with Mr. Elliot. I found him very knowledgeable and well informed, he explained me everything he will be doing in my case on my our first meeting and kept me updated throughout the case. Very easy to reach to and genuinely a honest guy. I would highly recommend.

Best Lawyer!!!

Excellent Immigration Lawyer - Highly Recommend! I recently had the pleasure of working with Mr. Elliot Rahimi for my Grandparents and mother’s immigration case, and I am extremely satisfied with the service I received. Rahimi is a highly knowledgeable and experienced immigration lawyer who went a...bove and beyond to assist our family throughout the entire process. I was impressed with their professionalism and expertise. They patiently listened to our concerns and provided me with clear and concise explanations about the immigration process, helping me understand my options and the steps involved. Their attention to detail and thoroughness in preparing our case was impressive, and they kept us informed and updated throughout the entire process. Thanks to Rahim's diligent efforts, my Grandparents received their Green cards in 3months!!! My mom received her citizenship in 4months!!! I am extremely grateful for their expertise and guidance throughout this process, and I highly recommend them to anyone in need of an immigration lawyer.

Best immigration lawyer!

Elliot was the absolute best lawyer I could have asked for - he was so thorough, knowledgeable, professional, patient and nice. He was available for every question we had and made the process extremely smooth and seamless that I got my green card approved the fastest I’ve heard of! He was there for... every step of the way and I couldn’t recommend him more to anyone needing an immigration lawyer. I’d put 10 stars if I could!

The best immigration attorney!

I was looking for an immigration attorney and a really good friend of mine referred Elliot. The first time I spoke to him we probably spoke for over an hour and I told him mine and my wife’s situation. He seemed very compassionate and knowledgeable so we decided to go with him. I don’t know if ...he does this with all his clients but he gave me his cell phone and we would text back and forth pretty regularly. Anytime I would call he was alway extremely accessible. This is definitely not common for many other attorneys who seem like they’re to busy to bother with you or don’t care. Elliot does care and even though you know he’s busy he always made time. He gave us very good guidelines of the things that we needed to put together for immigration and we uploaded everything onto a shared google drive which we could all review. The process wasn’t pretty smooth and I was honestly expecting there to be more hurdles however Elliot kept everything on track for us and several months later my wife just got her green card! I’ve done some research and bottom line he may be the best immigration attorney in the country. His rates are more then reasonable and I was really happy. If you want a smart, professional, and empathetic attorney I would highly recommend Elliot :)

  • 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.
