Knowledgeable, thorough, and approachable

Very knowledgeable and thorough. Faraz took the time to fully explain the details of my case and what the best potential course of action was for my unique situation. He answered my questions with patience and detail. Would recommend Faraz and Kahn Nayyar for any of your immigration legal needs.

EXCELLENT ATTORNEY

Faraz is one of the best immigration attorneys in Chicago. He worked on my case and obtained expedited processing for my green card interview abroad. Only a few attorneys would be intelligent enough to navigate this process and achieve such a result. If you have a complex case, call Faraz.

Moreover he was able to provide a timeline based on his past experience. He is truly seasoned and professional in what he does. I have recommended him to my entire n...etwork whom of which have hired him on an ongoing basis. Don't hesitate to contact him!

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.
