Excellent lawyer!

I went to Sheida about 2 days out before my hearing, she was still able to help me and dismiss my case quickly and efficiently.

Excellent service.

When I first called the law office of Sheida Shoalehvar, she answered right away and made my appointment for the following day. When we first met she made me feel really comfortable and assured me everything was going to work out in my favor. I left that day feeling very hopeful. The following weeks ...her and her office answered whenever I had questions and walked me through everything leading up to my court date. Sure enough everything went well. Thank you again Sheida, I wouldn't hesitate to work with you again.

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.

A Caring Firm

I am ever so glad that I chose Sheida S. to represent me on my DUI case. Not to mention that she took my case at the last minute(3 days before my court date), she and her firm went above and beyond my expectations in handling my case for me. From the first meeting I knew she was all about business, ...and has a passion for wanting to help people. I sincerely appreciate all of the hard work that they did for me on my case this past year. I couldn't thank them enough for the lengths that they went to for me; to still live freely and keep me out of jail. I couldn't be more please and thankful for the services that Sheida and her firm provided for me.

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."
