She made my case ruined and withdrew before trial

She received money to do something but because of her Withdrawal before the trial court I missed everything and I forced to pay again for trial but never never returned my money and she sent a receipt that didn’t make sense for me in fact I have paid for the procedure totally She is not responsible... for important matters she might scape if the case is complicated Be careful She never accepts her mistakes or refund money I’m very very sorry for her personality as a woman and an attorney

Best Lawyer Ever!!

I hired Sameen Zia for my divorce case last year. I found her to be very competent, professional and always very responsive. She replied to all my emails and calls promptly. She guided me step by step with my case. I was content the way she represented my case. Her caring and kind nature made the cas...e smooth till the end. Her fees are reasonable as well. Even now if have any questions I reach out to her and she always responds back with her honest suggestions. I highly recommend Sameen Zia as she would go above and beyond to represent anyone’s case. If i’d be needing any advice in the future i will reach out to her for sure. I cannot thank her enough, grateful to have her!!

Efficient and straightforward

I procrastinated on filing my QDRO for years because previous attorneys I contacted made matters far more complicated than it needed to be. Attorney Zia was recommended by an attorney friend of mine. Over a 10-minute consultation over the phone, Zia immediately provided the simplest and least costl...y solution. She had the whole thing wrapped up in a month. I respect and trust her and will recommend her to anyone.
