About Layla
Biography
I am the founder and principal attorney of Khamoushian Law Group, a boutique immigration law firm based in Los Angeles, California. I represent individuals, families, entrepreneurs, professionals, and businesses in a wide range of immigration matters, including family-based immigration, employment visas, asylum and naturalization.
As an immigrant, I understand firsthand the challenges, sacrifices, and opportunities that often accompany the immigration journey. That perspective has shaped my commitment to providing compassionate, practical, and effective legal representation to every client I serve.
I founded my law firm with the goal of offering personalized, hands-on representation and clear communication throughout the immigration process. Whether helping families reunite, guiding businesses through complex immigration matters, or advocating for individuals seeking protection in the United States, I and my team are dedicated to helping our clients achieve their goals and build secure futures.
Advocacy you can trust—strategic, responsive, and deeply personal. We don’t just handle cases; we protect your rights, amplify your voice, and guide you with clarity through every step of your immigration journey.

Unwinding Damage from Identity Theft
Layla worked to get two cars purchased via identity thieves removed from the credit bureaus. It was a nearly impossible task for an individual, but Layla and her team got it done! We are very satisfied with her service and the results.

Layla was great!
Layla helped us navigate the very complicated immigration system. It has been a tremendous relief having her in our corner, making sure we did everything necessary to finalize my husband’s case without incident, and for him to attain US citizenship.
