Best attorney in the DC Metro area

Makan is professional, knowledgable and competent. He makes it clear that you are not just a "case" to him and shows compassion and concern. So thankful for all of his help. I've referred friends to him and they have also had great experiences with him.

Misdemeanor arrest

I reached out to Attorney Shirafkan approximately 8 months ago in reference to a misdemeanor arrest. Attorney Shirafkan was very responsive and direct to my emails in a timely manner. Although this was my first time being involved in a situation like this Attorney Shirafkan went above and beyond to ...assist me. Two weeks ago the case was dismissed thanks to his dedication and loyalty to his profession. I would definitely recommend him to friends and family in the future.

My Lawyer for Life

Makan Shirafkan is an incredibly skilled counselor, who dedicates himself to your case from start to finish. During the summer of 2014, I was charged with a very serious traffic violation. At first, every single person I spoke to told me that there was no way that I would be able avoid a fairly leng...thy jail sentence (30-40 days). As you can imagine I was extremely concerned, and worried about my future. After I was referred to Makan by someone very close to me, those concerns vanished. From our very first conversation, Makan brought a level of seriousness and professionalism to my case, while remaining an absolute pleasure to work with. He always had very clear instructions, and explained things thoroughly; it was clear to me that Makan thought of us as a team and truly cared about the outcome. I cannot say enough about Makan, both as a man and a lawyer. I highly recommend his services, and am sure that if I ever need counseling again Makan will be the man that I call.

Thorough and Dedicated!

Makan Shirafkan defended my son in a traffic accident case and was nothing short of excellent! From the first phone conversation, he was on top of things. Mr. Shirafkan knows his craft and practices it well. He does all of his research, gathers information and makes sure that he has covered every bas...e before he enters the courtroom. He takes great pride in putting his best foot forward and it shows in every conversation and meeting. Should the occasion ever arise again, I will not hesitate to contact Mr. Shirafkan immediately.
