Excellent and Talented Lawyer

I am so grateful for my "total experience" with Meenoo and I couldn't be happier with the result. She handled my case and won. She made the process seamless. She was also very caring, helpful, and a good listener. She made me feel confident that she will do her utmost, and in turn I felt so good kno...wing I had her on my side. She displayed an outstanding work ethic throughout the process. She was patient with me and supporting me through this difficult time in my life. Meenoo took care of everything and answered all my questions. She had the knowledge for the issue at hand, and was absolutely pleasant to work with. She communicated frequently with me to let me know where we are in the process. I just wrote this to thank her for the outstanding job she did on my case. If you're looking for a lawyer that treats its clients with the upmost respect and care for them like family, and is super talented then I highly recommend her.

Excellent Lawyer

Meeno is a superb attorney, she represented me before the EEOC. She is compassionate about her work and her clients, she always kept me up to date on what was going on with my case. She is very knowledgeable, hard working, and dedicated. I highly recommend Meenoo.

The best!!

Ms. Chahbazi is an outstanding attorney who cares passionately about her work and will give you an honest assessment of your case. She is very professional and hard-working. She promptly responded to my questions and provided me with the legal representation and assistance that I needed during a ...difficult time. I give her my highest recommendation.

Great employment discrimination lawyer!

Meenoo was very pleasant to work with. She was very thorough and always got back to me quickly with answers to my questions. She stayed in communication with me throughout the entire process. I was never left wondering what was happening with my case. I always felt that I was in the loop of what was ...going on, which made me feel more comfortable. Due to my specific health issues, I need someone who is willing to take time explaining things, Meenoo was very patient and made the process as painless for me as she could. I would definitely recommend her to friends and anyone needing her area of expertise. She is very good at helping an individual weigh the pros and cons of starting litigation. There are many costs involved, not just the apparent ones. I feel that she is a very well-rounded and ethical attorney that will put your interests first. Highly recommend.

Great Representation!!!

First of all, Meenoo Chahbazi handled my Civil Rights - Sexual Harassment case with only 48 hours notice. She gathered all of the necessary information in the consultation meeting. She's a professional that cares and will fight your rights. A honest and intelligent individual and very worthy of he...r profession.

Avvo Rating

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.
