Excellent

I consulted Shahrooz Tabibnia on a civil legal matter / tenant matter and he provided very helpful legal guidance. He's quite knowledgeable and experienced, as well as professional and genuinely concerned. I highly recommend Tabibnia law firm.

Tabibnia Law Firm Review

A few years ago, I was dealing with a serious legal matter. I suddenly learned that a major corporation had obtained a large civil money judgment against me in court. When I became aware of the judgment and debt, I was angry and concerned about my financial future. I approached other attorneys for he...lp, but they all said that there was little they could do because the judgment against me was too old; the court would not re-open the case. So, I decided to turn to and hire the Tabibnia Law Firm because I was aware of their strong reputation in civil law matters and criminal defense cases. Mr. Tabibnia went out of his way to fight for me. To my surprise, he convinced the court to set aside the judgment against me and to re-open the case. And after getting the case re-opened, I was even more astonished when he got the case completely dismissed just months later! So, I went from having a large money judgment against me to getting the judgment removed and case dismissed in a matter of months. Throughout the process, I found Mr. Tabibnia to be capable, aggressive, honest, competent and fair with his fees. Most importantly, he kept me informed throughout the case. I cannot recommend the Tabibnia Law Firm highly enough.

Capable, aggressive and caring lawyer

I was referred to Cyrus Tabibnia by a friend on a felony drug possession criminal matter. I have to admit, I had never had a court case before. So, even though I knew I was innocent, I was scared, confused and ashamed. Would I go to prison? What would happen to my future, my family, my job prospects?... Despite my initial anxiety, Cyrus impressed me by guiding me through every step of the way. He first took the time to explain the whole criminal legal process to me, which decreased my fear and made me more comfortable. Throughout the case, Cyrus put on a master class of relentlessness, competence, and knowlege. He is also a very caring lawyer and fought for my case at every turn, even at times when I would get emotional and wanted to give up. Cyrus ultimately got my case dismissed! Because of Cyrus, my future is secure. I could not have been happier with the results. I highly recommend him for your criminal legal needs!

Case dismissed!

Where do I begin? I was accused of a crime I didn’t commit in which I was being charged as a felon which was later lowered to a misdemeanor. As I told Cyrus what happened he knew exactly what to do and he walked me through the whole process. I was worried about having a criminal record but Cyrus reas...sured me. Fast forward what seems to be forever, Cyrus got my case dismissed! If you’re looking for a criminal defense attorney, look no where else because you found the right one. Thank you so much for all your help Cyrus!

Unequaled Acumen and Care! Truly a great attorney

As someone with no criminal history or encounter with the law ever in my life, to suddenly face a false accusation was financially and most of all emotionally devastating and disorienting. Attorney Tabibnia intervened as an unparalleled steady hand, quickly demonstrating his acumen and offering a rea...l assessment of what action to take and probable outcome. He showed his steadiness, his knowledge, and also was quick to take action at every step of my ultimately successful case. Attorney Tabibnia is a truly unequaled attorney who stands out among his peers. He also showed he is an excellent human being with gracious care for my case, for the truth, and for me as his client. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of an intelligent attorney.
