A great law practice!

Worked with the DA to drop my charges by going having me go through a behavioral therapy regiment. Not cheap but the alternative would have been worse.

An Excellent Lawyer

Mrs. Sheida Shoalehvar is an excellent attorney based on my recent experience and observation. I used to be a professor teaching legal subject in a foreign university. Few months ago, one of my close acquaintances was involved with a misdemeanor/felony charge due to her response to a pre-set quest...ion from police without knowing the real legal implication of the wording in the question. As a result, even she is innocent, the police still filed a charge against her per SOP. Seeking for help, she showed me six letters from different law firms offering legal assistance. After carefully reviewing all these letters and a solid research, I recommended her choose Mrs. Shoalehvar. For me, the recommendation was quite a pressure on myself. Now, I am so glad that Sheida proves that I am right and DA rejects the charge filed by police. Throughout the entire legal consultation process, Sheida always makes herself available either in person or via her mobile phone. That is why she earns a great number of clients who have personal trust in her personality and professionalism. In conclusion, Sheida is indeed a “Lady of Justice.” Note: Sheida has two capable assistants, Andy and Lily, and her consultation fee is very competitive based on my comparison before the payment. Review with great appreciation B. Lee., PH.D.

My experience with her was that she was flexible with the price and the services she offers. I found her to be trustworthy, everything that she told me she could help me with she did. It was exactly like she explained to me, she fought for my case, I really recommend her. Ella eso todo lo posible... para ayudar me! La recomendó a todos! Me ayudo a mi mucho y estoy muy agradecida.

Petty Theft

Sheida represented me in a petty theft case although it took some time to get it dismissed, it was solved in the time for me to renew my DACA. Sheida did such a good job my DACA was approved for renewal without any complications. Also her assistant Brenda worked with me and kept in communication rega...rding the case and payment arrangements. Brenda explained the case procedure after every court day and kept me informed about the hearings and future dates. She also made the payment arrangements work within my monthly budget. Although Sheidas's team is not cheap to hire they're service and professionalism is worth every penny. I thank them for getting my case dismissed.

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."
