I was born in Istanbul, Turkey of Armenian descent. I immigrated to the United States in 1974, at the time just 4 months old. I knew, from early in my legal training that I would be an immigration attorney. In fact, it is all I specialize in. Immigration law and more importantly, unpublished policy, changes so quickly that if an attorney does not focus their entire practice on immigration law, they will miss something.
On a personal note, I am married for 11 years and two wonderful boys ages 2 and 4. I love representing my clients and learning about their cultures, business ventures and industry.

Arek knows his stuff

Best Immigration lawyer I have worked with.
Searching for a good attorney took some patience and money, but I'd have to say it was worth it to find Arek at last.

Green Card success! A great lawyer, a true pro!
I cannot thank Mr. Arek Nizamian enough. He helped my family and I to ultimately get our permanent residency statuses. My case was complicated, so complicated that my previous lawyer gave up on my case. I got a RFE after my previous lawyer messed up my case by submitting an incomplete documentatio...
