We contacted attorney Yazdani for a consultation and after discussing my case , we decided to hire him. We were very pleased with the office paralegal, Duvessa Hoban. She was very polite and patient with us! She made pretty much everything very smooth to work with attorney and As a result, our case w...as approved. we strongly recommend his law firm to all immigrants in the United States!

Great experience

I consulted with a few lawyers in Columbus for my green card application. When I wanted to choose my lawyer I specifically cared about attitude, professionalism, and of course the costs. There are a few lawyers out there that they prey on their clients but Payam is not one of them. It was great havin...g him as my immigration lawyer. Payam and Duvessa are accurate and professional. I came to know that every piece of paperwork is correctly done and put together. The cost was rational. I immediately suggested him to my close friend so I can say I'm happy about my experience.

Best Attorney

I was referred to Mr.Yazdani by his former client who was also received legal work papers. Time was of the essence for my visa transfer petition and Mr.Yazdani prepared my application carefully. He promptly returned my emails and phone calls and was very patient and knowledgeable in answering my inqu...iries. He made me understand the process and this really eased my anxieties. He is very reliable, responsible, and trustworthy. His legal advice is always on point and he goes above and beyond to support you through out the whole process. I really had a great pleasant experience working with him. I highly recommend him to people who’s seeking a great immigration lawyer.

Avvo Rating

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.
