Highly recommended lawyer

My mom needed to extend her visitor visa and received an RFE for her application. I hired Mahsa to help prepare the necessary documents for the RFE. She did an excellent job gathering all the required evidence, ensuring that the application was complete, well-organized, and submitted in a timely mann...er. Thanks to her efforts, the extension was approved quickly. I totally recommend Mahsa for any immigration-related matters and will definitely reach out to her for any future cases. She is currently working on my mom’s green card application, and I’m confident she’ll handle it with the same professionalism and dedication.

Outstanding Immigration Lawyer

I hired Mahsa for my citizenship case and later for my husband’s as well. We relied on her expertise and in-depth assistance to navigate and facilitate both processes. Her dedicated follow-ups with supervisors played a key role in accelerating the progress. I cannot express enough gratitude for her e...xceptional work and the profound impact she has had on our lives.

Mahsa’s Guidance Made All the Difference

My wife and I had an excellent experience with Mahsa and Diaspora Law Services throughout our immigration journey, which included the I-130 and I-485 process, as well as my wife's TPS and other legal proceedings. From start to finish, the entire process took four years, culminating in my wife receivi...ng her I-485 approval and green card. Despite the lengthy and complex nature of our case, Mahsa made the process stress-free. She kept us well-informed and prepared for each step along the way, ensuring that we understood what to expect and how to handle each phase of the process. Her dedication and professionalism were evident in every interaction, and her clear communication provided us with much-needed peace of mind. We are incredibly grateful for Mahsa's expertise and support, which were instrumental in achieving a successful outcome. We highly recommend Mahsa and Diaspora Law Services to anyone seeking reliable and compassionate immigration assistance. Thank you, Mahsa, for everything you have done for our family!

You won’t regret having her as an attorney!

Attorney Mahsa Mohkamkar is just brilliant! As an immigrant myself, I have had so many questions about my and my family’s status. And Mahsa, with so much care and patience, had answered all of them! I sometimes wonder how she has so much knowledge about so many different topics on immigration. She is... compassionate and kind, and that also helps the client to connect with her so easily, and be able to get the most help from her. She is really trustworthy as well. When you give her your work, you are certain that you are in very good hands!

Patient, creative, knowledgeable Lawyer

After graduation, I had a terrible moment about my complicated immigration status. My case had lots of details and it was vague for most of lawyer to accept my case. However, Mahsa kindly listened to my story with all details and agreed to help me. She was very responsive and patient. She knew the an...swers of all my questions and explained them to me with all details. It looked to me that she was very updated to law and her knowledge was fully fresh about all details, which made her very creative and communicative. Don't hesitate to contact her for any immigration concern.
