More than happy with Farhad and staff

My husband and I had a very hard case and we couldn’t be more pleased with the work Farhad did for us! We got the best possible outcome and I truly believe we could not have done this without Farhad and his staff .. I could not recommend him more! Thank you so much for everything you’ve done for our ...family!

The Best Attorney

I found myself in a difficult situation and my previous attorney had actually done damage to my already difficult case. Mr. Sethna was honest from the beginning and explained everything I needed to know for the best possible outcome. He is full of knowledge, commitment and integrity. He truly went ou...t of his way to pull my case together. During the process I felt that he genuinely cared about me and my family. I will always be grateful to have found him and his team. He is the best attorney I have ever worked with and would recommend him 100%!

Absolute Best Immigration Attorney

At the time when I retained Farhad it was close to the time for me to renew my green card and I had only recently had a legal issue with the court. Farhad was able to walk me through the entire process from start to finish to get my green card renewed and gave advice to my attorney that was handling ...my court issue in terms of what would affect my immigration status and what wouldn't, this advice led to us resolving the court case without issue and also renewing my green card with Farhad filing the petition on my behalf. Earlier this year I became eligible for naturalization, I already knew however that I would not dream of moving forward with this by myself, especially considering my previous court issue. I retained Farhad once again and he filed the petition for Naturalization and in true Farhad form he walked me through the beginning to the end, including being present at my interview and being instrumental in guiding me through it. The last week of October 2020 I attended my oath taking ceremony and I am now a Naturalized American Citizen, this would not be possible without Farhad and Elizabeth, thank you both.

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.
