Horrible

I don’t like saying mean things about people but if you or your family want to have a lawyer that ask about money more then your case then he’s your guy. If you want a lawyer that does absolute nothing he’s your guy. It was something in me telling me not to trust him.. I think the desperation was ge...tting the best of me. It was something bad the judge dropped him from the case because he wasn’t doing anything.. Pray about your situation and trust your gut

HE IS COMMITTED, EXTREMELY EXPERIENCED & EXCELLENT!!!

Atty. Shabazz is above average in my opinion. He knows the law, uses every bit of his knowledge, tact, persuasiveness,and energy to get the best outcome for his client. He talks to his client, listens to them and to the family as well, and fights for the life of the person with everything he has!!! ... This family member he represented showed redemption, growth and promise and Atty. Shabazz gave everything he had to help the court to see this and they did see this clearly as a result of his efforts . He is persistent in making the points needed. The outcome was a blessing as the court was able to judge my relative as he truly is and on facts and gave an extremely fair outcome as a result of Attorney Shabazz's representation of our family member. I'm writing this because I am grateful for the outcome for our family member.

Not a man of his word

There was a warrant for my son. He has never been in trouble before, we consulted with Shabazz who said he would go with him the next day to turn him in along with our first deposit. The next day his paralegal told me he couldn't make it and he'll turn him in sometime next week but still bring in the... deposit. Are you kidding me? He expect me to keep my son in hiding for days but still pay him? NOT!!!! I got a better lawyer in the same building on a higher floor and I'm glad of it!!!!

Feeling Blessed

My Partner and I are so lucky and blessed to have met Tariq El-Shabazz! Tariq is so knowledgeable, professional, and will listen and explain the legal process in detail. Excellent attitude, and available for all the questions we had. Our case was approved today, Tariq was there with us, we felt r...elaxed and happy. All the documents submitted were well organized with the correct documents without any errors.

Expedient

I would definitely have to give this attorney a rating of 5 stars ALONE from how superb the process was for an inexperienced person such as myself. With little knowledge in the legal/law field, I secured Mr. El-Shabazz after explaining to him my incident I had actually surveyed across other crimi...nal defense law firms and I would actually be waiting 30 minutes to an hour AFTER my scheduled appointment time. Completely ridiculous, however with Tariq El-Shabazz and his firm, the process of getting representation was great.
