Professional to the Core

Attorney Muhammad was consulted then hired to deal with a mistaken identity case that had resulted in an arrest. Throughout the process, Mr. Muhammad ensured I received first class service. He always made himself available for questions; and worked in a timely manner. Overall, I highly recommend Mr. ...Muhammad as a fast and efficient lawyer.

Non-compete agreement & Business despute.

Mr. Shariyf Muhammad did a great job for me personally and for my company in two different scenarios! With non-compete agreement he managed and followed up with opponents in a very prompt and professional way to close the deal with success. With my company's business dispute he also fought hard for... me to make sure we got a fair deal against a giant franchise and their lawyers. I am so glad everything worked out and is over with. I am also very glad that I hired Shariyf to defend both my company and I. Mr. Muhammad and the Baig Firm Staff are very pleasant to work with and if I may add the important thing is they were fair and reasonable. I feel more confident now that I have Mr. Muhammad & The Baig Firm to depend on. I

Great work!

Always professional and precise. Helped me take care of some issues where I needed professional help with paperwork things, and was very clear and exact about what could or could not be done.

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.
