One Happy Client

Sheida was great and had helped me through the challenges I was faced with. Her calm demeanor and professionalism is what I truly needed to push me through. I highly recommend her and I do appreciate all what she did.

Dismissed my Domestic Violence Case

I had a domestic violence case and Sheida was about to dismiss my case. I was very much worried because of my legal status but she managed to dismiss the case, give me a payment plan and as courtesy she also prepped me for a civil complaint without charge. I truly recommend her, she does what is best... for the us, the clients. Will recommend her to friends and family, thank you again.

It was worth it don’t do it without Sheida and her team

I just want to start out with a big thank you to Sheida and her amazing team especially Brenda. I came to Law office of Sheida for legal help and I found out about her office from a mailing postcard. I called and made appointment to see her. It was the best decision I made by far. Sheida did every...thing she said she would do and all I needed to do was exactly what she asked. Then with a little patience she got me the best deal. The court appointed me a public defender and they told me a will get 3 years in prison. Sheida and her team of professionals at law got me probation and classes. I will always be grateful for Sheida and Brenda they helped me and I have one last thing to say. It was worth it there the best. Thanks

Great DUI attorney

My husband got a DUI last year and attorney Sheida was able to get him into a diversion class for soldiers that suffer from PTSD. She was able to get his case dismissed in a timely manner! Everything she told him that was going to happen on the case actually played as she said it would. If you are ...looking for a great DUI attorney Sheida is definitely a great one!

Outstanding Results

The law offices of Sheida really worked some magic with my felony arrest. She was ultimately able to get all charges completely dropped, even before my first court date. It is in your best interest to hire an attorney if you're in any kind of trouble because the judicial system is a long and scary ...process here in California. Luckily I found Sheida and she guided me through all the necessary steps I need to take in order to defend myself in the best way possible. I felt confident with hiring her from the first meeting we had because she knows exactly what to do and will make you aware of what to expect. I talked to many other attorneys but I felt most comfortable with her based on the conversations we had on the phone and in person. I can tell she has been doing this a very long time because she knows all the right people and knows all the appropriate steps to take in order to defend you in the best possible way. Make sure you listen to her advise and take all necessary steps that are given in order to defend your case in the best way possible. This was my first offense and I've learned so much by working with Sheida as my attorney. She held my hand and waked me through every step of the way until my case was closed. My charge went from Felony to completely closed and I never had to even look at a judge or anything. This is a huge relief for me and my family which is worth every penny to hire a professional attorney in any matter as I now have the piece of mind that I have someone to represent me in the best way possible if I ever need legal help at an affordable rate.

"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."
