Hired Mr. Sethna and his team in 2021 for my spouse immigration case, they’ve been great help in this process. Mr. sethna’s team is great specially Elizabeth, she helped a lot with all the paperwork and every single detail. Farhad himself answered questions for us too, anytime we needed to know some...thing they answered us quickly and very responsive. Will recommend Farhad and his team to anyone for sure.

Informing us on what to expect, the possible outcomes and made sure any questions I had were answered. Definitely recomme...nd him!

The sharpest immigration attorney I worked with

I would recommend every F1 student entrepreneur to Farhad! He is a real professional both in immigration law and business law: he understood my needs; he tailored the solution especially for my case (I've also consulted with other attorneys before and none of them could work out an easy way for me); ...he was always very responsive even during his vacation and was very considerate to accomodate to my schedule knowing my issue was urgent. I would go to Farhad in the future if I get any legal questions regarding my business founded with my F1 visa, because he is the most knowledgeable attorney I've ever met in this field.

Compassionate and Trusted

Attorney Sethna, and his co-worker Elizabeth, were wonderful to us while working through my wife's immigration process. They also helped us through her K-1 visa process. Everything about our case seemed to be complicated by embassy closings and covid19. Farhad and Elizabeth were always quick to re...spond to emails and they are always compassionate to our situation, even when there were no answers. I appreciate all their help and we will trust them again when the time comes for the next step in our process.

Excellent support and services

Mr. Sethna and his office was very supportive throughout my green card application process. They maintained good correspondence on the status and preparation for my application. They went through the timeline and procedure in detail which helped me plan my tasks accordingly. Mr Sethna was very friend...ly to work with and extremely knowledgeable. We are very satisfied with his services and would definitely recommend him to others.

  • 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.
