B1/B2, employment based green card

I recently had a consultation with Ms Hajavi, and I am thoroughly impressed by her professionalism and expertise. From the start, she took the time to listen to my concerns and provided clear, thoughtful advice. She explained the legal options available to me in a way easy to understand. Ms Hajavi ...was patient and answered all of my questions, leaving me confident about the next step. Overall, I would highly recommend Ms Hajavi for anyone seeking clear, knowledgeable, and compassionate legal guidance.

Amazing immigration lawyer

Yalda got my NIW petition approved!

I did my EB2 NIW petition with Yalda's help and from the beginning to the end she was very caring, knowledgeable, professional, and supportive. She helped me strengthen my case with very useful advice and she was always available to meet when I needed. In addition to that, she was very punctual to th...e schedule we set for the entire process which made it a quick process for such an extensive petition. On top of all these qualities, my favorite thing about Yalda is that she is willing to take cases that are not straightforward and work with you to create a strong case. For example, for scientists (like myself) she can build strong cases based on the quality of publications rather than quantity, while most immigration attorneys focus on just quantity. Overall, her ability to handle not straightforward cases this seamlessly and successfully is a testament to her exceptional ability as a lawyer. I would recommend her to anyone who needs an immigration attorney.

J-1 Visa

Wow, she is really incredible! Such a lovely woman who broke down the steps of what was needed, how the process works, the order of which it happens and gave a rough timescale of how long the entire process could take. She went out of her way to help me understand certain concepts, show me how to uti...lise specific tools, give recommendations and guide me. She is highly intelligent, efficient and so kind, and her calm and friendly manner made the whole consultation easy and was able to answer all the questions I had. I would 100% recommend this attorney to anyone all over the world.

Highly Recommended

Ms. Hajavi’s expertise was a vital factor in my employment petition for permanent residency being approved. She came on board my case and guided us through how to make the strongest case possible. She was very responsive to any questions from myself or my employers. I would highly recommend her prof...essional and thorough work as a lawyer in immigration services . I am grateful for everything she did to help me succeed in my case.

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.
