I would re-hire Mr. Ahmed without hesitation.

Mr. Ahmed represented me during my high-conflict divorce which began in 2017 and finally ended in 2019. My divorce from a difficult and uncooperative spouse was extremely stressful, and included several attempts at mediation, depositions, multiple motions, and several hearings before the final hearin...g. My ex hired an extremely unpleasant and aggressive attorney who did his best to intimidate me at every opportunity. With Mr. Ahmed representing my interests, that did not happen. Mr. Ahmed is a skilled professional. He is honest and pragmatic from the first consultation and truly cares about the welfare of his clients. He calmly and efficiently handled every aspect of my case, demonstrated incredible integrity in his practice of law, and provided grounded advice and guidance during an incredibly difficult time. Mr. Ahmed is poised, articulate, and aggressive in both his communication with opposing counsel, and in the court room. He is an extremely fast, logical, and analytic thinker, and was able to catch my ex in financial inconsistencies that resulted in a favorable settlement for me in the end. Being a single mom of three, earning a teacher's salary, and divorcing a narcissistic individual from a wealthy family was not an easy situation to be in. Syed ensured that my children and I were provided for throughout the extensive proceedings, and he persisted until the Final Judgement awarded me alimony, support, and a fair division of assets and liabilities. I will continue to rely upon Mr. Ahmed to represent my interests in future family law issues. If you are looking for a skilled, energetic, aggressive, and most importantly honest attorney who is experienced in dealing with high-conflict divorce with children, I would strongly encourage you to call Mr. Ahmed.

Integrity, Honesty, Exceptional Service

I’ve retained Syed for counsel three times over the last 5 years. My cases have consisted of THE WORSE family law issues. Through each detail of domestic violence, child abuse, felonies, misdemeanors, marital debts, child support, and every other ugly issue, Syed has been honest, upfront, detail orie...nted, realistic, caring, and always fought for my child and I with his best. Nothing but great things to say about this attonrey. His integrity speaks volumes of his character. His staff has been consistent year after year, you can expect to receive fair treatment and consistency.

Best Family Law Attorney

Incredibly knowledgeable and does not price gouge you! I had a horrible situation where my Ex-husband refused to return my daughter from his timeshare. I was in a panic. My previous attorney raked me over the coals with outrageous fees! I didn’t not have anyone in my corner. I contacted Syed and he h...ad a precise response that was exactly what was needed! He filed an Emergency order and my daughter was home the next night. I can’t say enough about his knowledge of the law, his experience, and compassion!

Exceptional Lawyer

My case was a unique case that I assume many lawyers do not come across. Syed Ahmed did an excellent job at achieving our goal and having a sense of humor whilst doing so. I left with a more than favorable outcome and for that I am grateful. I would recommend him to anyone.
