Highly Recommend Nishat Azam!

Nishat Azam was referred to me by a friend. I was highly impressed with her professionalism, knowledge and desire to obtain the best outcome for my case which she was succeeded in. I will certainly utilize her services, as necessary, in the future and recommend her to others. Thank you so much for... your diligence and hard work!

We HIGHLY recommend Ms. Azam. Excellent service.

Very knowledgeable. Easy to work with. We've worked with dozens of attorneys over the years on various matters, and none have been as easy to work with as Ms. Azam. Very fast response times every time we had questions or concerns. Everything went smoothly. There were no surprises. We highly rec...ommend Ms. Azam, and we would definitely request her services in the future if we have a need.

Chapter 7 bankruptcy lawyer | Apr 05

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I endorse this lawyer. I have known Nishat for several years. We first met in Washington DC when we were both lobbying for the judicial cramdown that would have let residential homes be reduced to the market value. Unfortunately, we were not successful in this endeavor, but my meeting Nishat at this event indicated her high level of committment for her clients' best interests. She will go the extra mile for her clients, and I would highly endorse her for any work in bankruptcy. I also know she has recently gone back to school to obtain her LLM in Tax, and I find this very impressive. SHe is not afraid of hard work."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
