One of the Best in the City!
I needed Attorney Bhatia's services to help understand legal issues my family is facing with my grandmother being in and out of nursing homes. She was very thorough and even followed up a couple of times after the dispute to make sure everything was fine. She is amazing and I recommend her 100%!
Shalini Bhatia's Lawyer Endorsements
"Shalini is a very effective attorney. I have served as a mediator on a divorce case involving one of Shalini's clients. She was a very effective advocate who understood the importance of trying to resolve the matter through mediation, and she was a very good advocate on behalf of her client. I would recommend her without reservation."
