Pegah Rahgozar - Outstanding Attorney

I was highly impressed by Pegah's sense of knowledge and professionalism. She was very clear about the process of my case and it truly made me and my husband feel confident about our decision in hiring her. She does not sugar coat anything and prepares her clients effectively. I was also impressed by... how quick she responded to my many emails and request. Not only did she respond quickly, but accommodated to me and my husband. Finding a good lawyer is rare, I am so thankful to have such a trustworthy attorney. She turned a stressful situation into something positive. Pegah truly made me feel as if we were family. I am impressed by her hard work and honestly her passion. I can tell she truly loves what she does. She put in a lot of work preparing my packet and was extremely proactive from the beginning. Pegah's staff was also very attentive to my case and i truly appreciate that. One thing that sets Pegah apart from other lawyers is her knowledge of different cultures. She completely understand cultural situations. I have no worries about my case, I feel confident everything will be approved due to Pegah and her team. I would recommend Pegah to anyone! Outstanding experience!

amazing experience

Found out about Rahgozar Law Firm online . Engaged their services for a green card for me and my wife . Pegah is amazing !!! She is prompt, proactive , understanding and has good knowledge of what needs to be done . All my paperwork was done on time and submitted as quickly as possible . Both her and... Gina stay on top of our case status and are quick to react in the event there is any issue with the processing of the case We are still waiting to receive the approval of our application but feel confident that all will be good with Pegah on our side .

Great law firm. I highly recommend it

I am very happy with the service and the outcome of the case. I enjoyed the professionalism and the teamwork of Pegah and her assistant Gina they were courteous, attentive and prompt and really easy to reach by phone or email but above all they were honest and knowledgeable and that is something you ...definitely need when hiring a lawyer. My case was somewhat complicated and required a high attention to detail but that was not a problem for them they were able to keep everything organized and made sure all the requirements for my case were met. As far as price I think they were honest and fair on the hours billed so it made my case affordable. I would definitely go back to them and/or refer them for future immigration/legal needs.

Great lawyer

I am so delighted to recommend Pegah Rahgozar for legal services. My wife and I recently applied for and were granted a green card based on marriage. We are in a dream state and it has so much to do with our wonderful attorney. We have struggled for more than ten years with acquiring visas and, after... DOMA was struck down by the Supreme Court, we were eligible to apply through marriage. We had a challenging case and had many negative experiences with immigration attorneys. By the time we met Pegah, we were almost out of hope and about to give up. She was in a word, incredible! She answered our emails immediately. She always went the extra mile for us, dealing with our smallest to our biggest concerns. My wife is very thorough and requires a lot of attention to detail and Pegah provided that peace of mind to her again and again. From start to finish the process took about four months, much faster than we expected. In particular, we had a meeting with her two weeks prior to our interview where she prepared us for what to expect. This was extremely helpful, and we walked into that interview and aced it thanks to all his support and knowledge. She accompanied us to the interview which I highly recommend. She even made time to join us after the interview to debrief how it went. Working with Pegah is like having this very skilled attorney in your corner, coupled with the care of a loving and caring mother. I have met many attorneys over the years and she is the only one I have encountered that can combine professionalism, exceptional skills and deep caring for her clients. I would never want to go through the stress of getting a green card again, but if I did, I would be happy for a chance to work with Pegah Rahgozar again.
