Great wealth of information and amazing lawyer!

I found Mr. Varzandeh when my family was thrown into a terribly stressful situation. At that time, when I felt like walls were closing in on us, he was able to shine light upon our path with knowledge and provide insight into the situation. Although the news and options were not ideal, he could still... make me laugh at the end of it all. Considering terrible past experiences my family has had with other lawyers, taking money yet never doing anything promised, I would like to say there was no stone left unturned in vetting Mr. Varzandeh. He truly is the real deal when it comes to immigration law. He is very well spoken in person and on paper and his wealth of knowledge and experience in the matters is outstanding. Without any hesitation I would refer any friends or family members to seek his guidance and counsel for any and every immigration matter. Thank you so much for your time yet again Mr. Varzandeh!

I won my case at FIRST HEARING session! The best Law Firm in California

******HE IS A WINNER AND ALWAYS WINS *****I won my case at FIRST HEARING session! ***** *MOST his cases WIN AT THE FIRST HEARING SESSION-no curt-no judge *Very knowledgeable *Very Professional *very reasonable fee $ *He cares about your case more than you do *Very very responsible *the servic...e you receive is way more than what you pay for *I won my case and was not referred to IMMIGRATION JUDGE *I would have been deported if I didn’t find Houman Varzandeh At the first meeting with Houman Varzandeh, he explained me everything I had to know about the asylum process, then he scheduled some preparation sessions and I was fully prepared before the hearing, I won my case without being referred to IMMIGRATION JUDGE. **Why I chose him? After a terrible experience with law office of Carl Shusterman, I found Houman Varzandeh through a friend, and I feel I was the LUCKIEST person on earth! Here is why: My declaration was terribly prepared by law office of Shusterman full of grammatical errors, but not by him, by a VOLENTEER INTERN who was working for him for FREE and I was her guinea pig so that she could learn how to lose a case, this is how Carl Shusterman runs his business, by interns. All of his clients are referred to immigration judge that means another 3-4 years being up in the air.

big mistake going to this law office

In 2013 I came to Varzandeh Houman Law Offices for consultation. During consultation I was told that I need to hire Mr. Alan Fenster to vacate 2005 I was guilty. I made appointment with Mr. Alan Fenster and came in for consultation. On my appointment I felt he was not pleasant person to deal with bu...t I had no choice since at the office of Varzandeh I was told he was the only attorney who can help me. So i hired Mr. Fenster and paid $ 7000.00. Mr. Alan Fenster said he will vacate process of my case in few months, when I asked him what is few months he raised his voice and repeated I said few months . in the results, He worked on my case 22 months. I had to plea guilty to a different charge, which now on my record as 2014 case. The case was not handled with care, with a small mistake he made and not make it clear that is was 2005 case, now I m Immigration court on removal proceedings and my Green card was taken away from me. I contacted Mr. Fenster trying to explain my situation, his response was not to call him about this case again

I do not know who you are and you have never been a client of Varzandeh Anderson LLP. I am sorry about your poor experience with another law firm. However, you seem to misunderstand that I am neither Alan Fenster nor am I responsible for Mr. Fenster's work or relationship with you. Our office is not in ANY way part of Mr. Fenster's law firm. When people have serious criminal issues, as you have conceded that you have in your review, I try to help them out by referring out to multiple criminal lawyers to either vacate the plea or change the plea. Many different names were given to you and you were free to choose from that list, OR ANY criminal lawyer you liked. I did not encourage you to hire Mr. Fenster in any way and in fact I always encourage people to choose the attorney they are most comfortable with. You are responsible for your decsion to hire other attorneys and your review is outrageous as you have never had a legal relationship with my office. Once again, I am sorry that you are not happy with the work of Alan Fenster but Mr. Fenster is not a lawyer that works at Varzandeh Anderson LLP, nor are we criminal lawyers.

Right person for you !

After meeting and contacting many lawyers in New York, Washington, and LA I found a right and best one. Choosing Mr.Varzandeh as my lawyer was the best decision I ever made in my life. His knowledge, confidence, enthusiasm and honesty makes him unique. He has a professional team which they were alway...s available to assist me anytime I had questions and inquiries. I highly recommend Mr.Varzandeh Anderson's law office for immigration issues. Dear Houman and Lisa, thank you so much for all your positive energies and supports.

Simply he is the best and most reliable!!

It was fortunate to find Mr. Varzandeh through a referral by a friend and be able to get a tremendous help by working with him. He is extremely knowledgeable, refreshingly honest, and very generous with his time providing the best advice every step away. His compassionate approach to advocate for his... clients is remarkable. I am very grateful for his help and wholeheartedly recommend him for any legal advice regarding immigration issues.
