I pride my self in being extremely passionate about the law. My dedication to my clients and their causes shows in my detail-oriented work. I treat my clients cases as if they were my own. Clients typically seek lawyers at a vulnerable and unfortunate period of their lives. My office understands that and handles every case with compassion, professionalism and a great sense of urgency.
1.Personal injury
In a difficult time following a traffic accident, competent legal representation is cruicial in communicating with the insurance companies, negotiating a favorable settlement and, if necessary, going to trial.
2. Immigration
Being an immigrant form Morocco, I experienced first hand the process of becoming a lawful resident and eventually a naturalized citizen. I undersatnd what it takes to be successful in this complex and constantly changing area of the law. My expertise is deportation and inadmissibility defense.
3. Business law
When parties enter into a business agreement or partnership, they almost never forsee that it will end up in dispute. Many business agreements end up in disagreement or misunderstanding.
When unexpected disputes arise, they must be resolved efficiently and expiditiously to minimize the negative impact on revenue and customers.
I understand the need for efficient and discreet legal representation.
4. International business law
I can be retained to negotiate multinational business contracts and advise foreign companies on establishing business presence in the United States. I speak fluent Arabic, French, Spanish and English.
