Thank you so much for your very kind review. I always try to do my best for my clients. I really appreciate your kind words but I feel I have to explain that I do not really speak Farsi very well. I understand Farsi to some degree and I speak a little bit of Farsi but I have a paralegal that is fluent in Farsi and helps with my Farsi speaking clients. However, you do speak English very well. Congratulations on your case again!
