This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Professional and respectful

Our experience with Mr. Sultan, and his team, was exceptional. From the first meetings to the last, we were impressed with his knowledge, professionalism, and kindness. He made sure all of our questions were answered thoroughly and promptly (and believe me, we had a lot of them). We appreciated that ...all of his recommendations were ethical and felt that we could trust him fully. Tarik made an impossibly confusing immigration process seem easy and straight forward - always being able to clearly summarize hours-worth of research I was not able to understand on my own. Mr. Sultan and his firm handled a complex process, amidst a pandemic, extremely well. We would recommend them to our closest friends and family.

Professional and easy to work with

I consulted multiple immigration lawyers before hiring Tarik for my PR petition. The team always respond to my inquiry in a timely matter and guided me through the whole process. I always recommend Tarik to my friends and family for their immigration needs.

Would highly recommend Tarik Sultan

Mr. Sultan got us through an eight-month, ridiculously complicated federal government paperwork drill completely successfully, with no issues or pushback. Highly knowledgeable, with decades of experience. Clear and concise, never used jargon. Honest. Has a personal touch that made him enjoyable t...o work with. We plan to use him again in future.

Recommend Highly

I am an attorney. I hired Tarik to represent a family member who was seeking a visa into the U.S. and who later, with Tarik's assistance, applied for and received a green card. Tarik was responsive, friendly, empathetic, professional and, most importantly, did a great job with the legal work. I re...commend him highly.

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.
