Highly recommended

I had a fantastic experience working with Sheida's firm. I followed her advice closely, and my case ended up being dismissed. The entire team at the firm was not only professional but also incredibly polite and considerate. One of the highlights of my experience was the communication; I could easily ...reach out via text with any questions and received quick responses. This informal way of communicating really helped reduce my stress, eliminating the need for constant formal emails. Thank you, Sheida!

Dedicated attorney who stood by my side

She is a professional attorney that explained to me what to expect and how to act/behave when I entered the court room. Although I never entered the court room and had a felony charge which was later dismissed on diversion over the phone I still want to say that having her on my side to represent me ...made me feel confident about my situation especially since it was my first experience dealing with a legal issue. Overall I would definitely recommend her services to anyone facing legal challenges who wants/needs an attorney they can trust to protect their interests.

Great Attorney, Great Team, Great Opportunities

Hello everyone! I was a client of Sheida’s for the past month, since August 15th. Her, and her team were a great help for myself, and my family during a difficult time. Never have been in legal trouble before, as well as my family never has. We essentially did not know what to do. My family and I wer...e lost. Thank god, Sheida’s mail came into my mailbox. Once I started working with Sheida, her assistant, Kat, explained me the entire process of my legal situation and how it would be best handled. Everything was clear and their communication was on point! After working for a month, Sheida and her team took the necessary steps in helping my situation. Now I’m record free thanks to them! Sheida and her team’s expertise is what I’d recommend in times of legal trouble!

Relationship: Worked for lawyer

"I endorse this lawyer. Ms. Shoalehvar is a fabulous advocate for her clients. She has worked out some miracles for her clients, even full dismissals. Her dismissal percentage is outstanding. I learned a great deal from her. She always does her best to make an incredibly positive impact on a client’s case as long as the client can hold up their end of the deal."

  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
