Adultery case

She was my attorney in adultery case two years ago. What she was cared to make money not to win the case. She made very bad mistake with separation date. My ex took the 5th. She asked me to go to Court with her. She said I should feel the cour atmosphere. When we got to court, she immediately introd...uced me to the judge and put me on the stand being questioned without any preparation. She used me because she was not prepared.He got his fifth. She asked me to give return taxes for five years. What a waste of time it was. I had doubts whether she looked into them.She overcharged me for every meeting and everything she was doing.She was rude,often burst screaming when questioned her actions/approached and threatened to leave the case.She supposed to send certified and regular letters.After three weeks not getting respond from the recipient I asked for receipt with tracking number. She got very angry screaming,if I don’t trust her she can’t defend me anymore.She never send those letters, she lied. For the Deposition most questions I prepared she had no time and asked for.There was the most humiliating time for me.My ex was sarcastic to her the most of the time and lied and she had solid evidence he did.when she started negotiations with his lawyer how much money I have to give back to my ex for spousal support he paid me and for all bills he paid for house. I not supposed to return any money to him, I found out later. I left her after that.

Will work to ensure her client is right.

I am so glad I was able to find Mariam. She helped guide me through a divorce that left me in pieces. Not only did she ensure that my interests were always in the front, she ensured the other counsel did not create undue burden with me. I praise her ability to help me and her knowledge of the law... to guide me when I wanted to get the other side. She ensured that we found the core values of what we were fighting for and went after it. In the end she saved me significant amount of money and even more pain and suffering.

Miriam is honest and will fight for you!

I hired Miriam after my divorce was underway. She jumped in and picked up the pieces from the attorney I had fired. Miriam was honest but reassuring. Within the day I hired her, she set the wheels in motion to move my divorce along. She listened and helped me articulate what I could and could not li...ve with. I believed she would fight hard for me and she did. I was one of many cases she was working on, but she understood I was in the fight of my life. She took the time to help me wade through my emotions to get the clarity I needed. When she was working for me, she gave 110%. She worked hard to the very last minute to settle out of court in order to save money and emotion. It was the worst time of my life, but Mariam kept me focused and on track. I highly recommend her. She will fight for you and be honest about what to expect. Her expertise and professionalism are above reproach. My only regret is that I started out with another attorney and lost valuable time and ground. Thankfully I found Mariam and she was able to put my divorce back on track and minimize the damage already done.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I have litigated and negotiated cases with Ms. Ebrahimi. I found her legal drafting to be excellent, and her advocacy for her clients to be strong. Despite the difficulties and emotion behind our clients’ family situations, and the heated negotiations and litigation that took place, Ms. Ebrahimi maintained the utmost professionalism and courtesy while fighting for her client’s interests. I have referred clients to Ms. Ebrahimi when I was unable to take their cases, knowing they would be in good hands."

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Mariam and I have worked together on various client matters over the years and I highly recommend her. As a colleague, she is very smart, commanding in the courtroom, and personable with clients. In a case in which we worked together, our client was clearly impressed with Mariam's skill and knowledge, and our ability to achieve a great result for the client was a direct result of Mariam's involvement."

Child custody lawyer | Oct 28

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. Mariam and I were opposing counsel a few years ago for a complicated custody matter. She was a fierce advocate for her client in Court but pleasant to work with out of Court. Were I a client this is the mix I would want in a lawyer. If the case is able to be settled, she will settle it. If it is not, she will advocate for her client aggressively but honestly and professionally. She practices in other areas of the law and I assume she brings the same characteristics to those areas too but my experience with her has been in the area of child custody."
