EXPERIENCED REPRESENTATION TO HELP YOU LIVE & WORK IN THE UNITED STATES! LIVEWORKUSA.COM
I am a Certified Specialist in Immigration & Nationality Law, by the State Bar of California Board of Legal Specialization. As an Iranian Jew I came to the United States nearly 40 years ago fleeing persecution. I was granted asylum status giving me an opportunity to stay safely in the United States and obtain all the benefits this wonderful country has to offer.
I have made it my life's mission to help others from all walks of life who are fleeing persecution, want a new start in this country, or have come to this land seeking the American dream. During the last 15+ years, I have consistently travelled all over the United States defending people in various immigration courts from deportation and removal, whether in detained or non-detained settings. I have successfully represented thousands of clients before the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR), the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) and various United States Circuit Court of Appeals legitimatizing their status here, allowing my clients to live and work in the United States. Each time a client is granted relief and is able to stay, the joy I receive is second-to-none.
I received my undergraduate degree from UCLA and my law degree from Southwestern University School of Law. During law school I externed for the Honorable Alan M. Ahart, United States District Court, Central District, California.
As a lawyer, I have learned that not everybody wins. This is why an attorney who, like myself, knows the law, is attentive to detail, compassionate, and not afraid to vigorously fight on behalf of his clients, helps increase the chances of success. I routinely represent clients in a wide range of complex immigration issues all across the United States.
Please feel free to contact my office at today for a free in person consultation.
Client's Choice is an Avvo award granted to attorneys with a significant number of client reviews over 4 stars in a given year.

Best immigration lawyer. Very professional
I have been in America for about 23 years. Most of those years, I was here illegally. Because I have been in trouble with the authorities before (DUI) I never thought that it would be possible for me to successfully change my immigration status. That is until the day I met David Hagighi. He convinced me that there was a real possibility to change my immigration status. Due to his tenacity and passion, I am now a proud green card holder. Thanks to David, I am now able to pursue my version of the American dream!

David is the best of the best! He successfully handled my very complicated case that was delayed for about a decade! I was one of those unlucky people who got stuck in limbo for what felt like an eternity all because of an unsavory attorney I had the misfortune to hire in the past. I absolutely recommend Mr. Haghighi's services and will forever be grateful for his kindness and professionalism. Words are not enough to express it. Thank you, David!

THANK YOU!!!
Gratitude does not begin to express how we feel right this moment. We have gone through so many lawyers who saw us as nothing but a dollar sign. Needless to say we were extremely cautious in signing our life over to another lawyer. Upon meeting Mr David Haghighi our fears were vanquished. They saw us as a person and held our hands through every step of the way. We appreciate their thoroughness, knowledge, patience, and understanding. We are well informed of every piece of paper filed, requested, stamped, and mailed. They answered our question if anything was in our mind. Our emails were answered within minutes. The whole staff were professional, from Venus, to Rini, Boni, Jennifer and of course our favorite Jojo!!!! You guys rock!!! You treated us a family and not a regular client even though you are working on multiple cases at the same time. You eased our mind and assured us that everything was ok and in order. We will ALWAYS be thankful to Mr David and everybody for making it possible for us to get our green card after all these years. Words will NEVER explain the gratitude we have in our heart. YOU ARE ROCK STAR LAWYERS. I shall for sure recommend you to anybody with an immigration issue or concern.

GODSEND!!
I am writing this review just as I received my Greencard in the mail today and it's all thanks to David and his team. It was a long 5-year wait riddled with ups and downs, hoops and slopes but David was there for us every step of the way. Even though David and I never met in person and just communicated electronically and telephonically (I am based in Chicago), I was always comfortable and confident with what he tells me. He tells the situation to you straight and honest with no false pretenses but with a reassuring disposition that if we do things right, then we will not have a problem. I first hired David back in 2017 when unforeseen circumstances in my home country necessitated that I seek asylum in the US after my J1 visa expired. His office helped me with submitting the asylum application, applying for my first EAD card and subsequent renewal and when I found the person I was meant to be with and gotten married, David helped us process everything so that my husband and I can stay together in the US. In 6 months, we received the notice of interview. While David was unable to go with us in person during the interview (due to COVID travel restrictions and risk) he was there with us by phone (He was on standby by his phone at 6 am!!! -- that's dedication and support). IF I COULD GIVE 10 STARS TO RATE DAVID, I MOST DEFINITELY WOULD!!. Hats off as well to David's staff Jojo Rodis, Bony, Jennifer, and Rini who all assisted me with my questions, concerns, and whatnot, from questions about asylum application, work permit, application via marriage, etc.
If you are looking for an honest, superb lawyer who not only knows what he's doing but excels at it; and whose practice is founded on true compassion and willingness to help, then look no further, Atty. David Haghighi and his team are all that you need for your immigration concerns!

Professional work
Thank you, David and your team (especially Rini) for making it happen. Finally, this is a moment of glory, and I would like to write a review for you. I came to David with 4 years of experience dealing with various lawyers; my case was very simple at the beginning, but because my previous lawyers did not know what they were doing, my case become complex to the point of removal. My previous lawyer screwed up many times, but the biggest issue was failing to explain the consequences of losing my status, which I did not even realize I was losing when I could easily maintain it. I interviewed a lot of other lawyers but decided to go with David. He was the only one to understand my case and had a plan on how to proceed and fix it. When I was in court, David stroke me as a professional. I could see his expertise in this field. Sometimes when I was in a court, I had empathy for immigrants hiring those “kids” or scam lawyers where they did not even know how to talk to the judge. Also, I want to thank David for the support, at the moment when I was losing my hope, and could not travel home for my fathers’ funeral, David stood up with all his condolences and made me believe I could make it through. Look, lawyers are not magicians. If you have a bad case you maybe just go home. But if you have a complex case, or it may be just a simple case as once it was mine, and you need a lawyer that would not miss an important detail, date, lawyer that could explain you all the nuances of your case, who has experience in courts talking to a judge, and expertise in all complexity of immigration system, David would be the one.

The Best there is!
Hi everyone! It took me a week to start and finished this post. Everytime i try to type something i just keep on deleting it because i really dont know the exact words to use to express my gratitude to David Haghighi and his team.
I came in the US 4 years ago with no certainty of going back to my home country. There was fear, Fear for my life and fear for my family, fear of persecution. I was threatened, humiliated and eventually forced to quit my job and leave home. I asked around on how am i going to survive this and where am i suppose to go to help me in my situation. A friend of mine referred Mr. Jojo Rodis, I didn't waste any time, I emailed Jojo Rodis and he responded and acknowledged my email. I was an asylee applicant, It went well. I had a hard time here in the US especially during my first year. Law Offices of David Haghighi helped me in my situation, I finally got a work permit and got a full time job. Now, i can legally work in US without any fear and feel safe. 4 years later, I am now a green card holder through the help of Mr. Haghighi through adjustment of status. Mr. Haghighi helped me from day 1 until i got my green card. He was there all the time. Thank you! God knows! David, JoJo, Rini and the rest of the team. Thank you for being professional and fair in every way. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Guys, if you have any questions about immigration, don't hesitate to talk to Law Offices of David Haghighi, Dont be afraid to ask. They are professionals and you can trust them.
