Knowledgeable & conscientious & easy with which to work

Green Card holder for 20+ years, time to apply for Citizenship. Before I could, I needed an Exemption Certificate from Military Draft, (being over 50 yrs old ) on entry. Nobody knew what this was, but Mahdis did. Right off the bat, she downloaded the necessary & I was off to the races. Mahdis kept me... informed at all times & things went very smoothly. The the experience was real good. I will be taking my Citizenship Oath in 4 days & am grateful to Mahdis & will recommend her without reservation.

Excellent and Attentive

Mahdis Azimi was my husbands citizenship attorney and we were beyond satisfied with her work. She responded immediately to any questions we had and always made sure we were in good hands. Our experience with getting my husbands citizenship went very smoothly, no bumps in the road, all thanks to Mah...dis. I highly recommend Mahdis for any legal matter. We look forward to working with her in the future!

Brilliant is the only word strong enough

Mahdis acted as my lawyer for my immigration case. I had started my process of obtaining a green card in October 2014 by March 2016 I had still not received my green card, I had been given no explanation as to why I had not received is the usual processing time is eight months. I meet and hired Ma...hdis in March 2016, from day one she was extremely helpful extremely knowledgeable and extremely professional. I will not go into all the details of my case but I am happy to say that on December 30th 2016 I received my green card. I feel it is important to mention I already had an immigration lawyer but they could not figure out why there was a delay, Mahdis was able to do this in a very short amount of time. My wife (who is American) and I could not recommend Mahdis highly enough she went above and beyond and really put us at ease during a very difficult and stressful time in our lives.
