You're in the right place if you are looking for affordable, professional, and excellent legal services!
I am a dedicated attorney zealously representing clients in family law, immigration, and business matters throughout San Diego County and immigration matters in all 50 states. Before immigrating to the U.S., I practiced as an attorney specializing in insurance and business litigation and also served as an assistant judge at the Federal High Court of Ethiopia.
Upon moving to the U.S., I continued to pursue my legal career, earning my J.D. with honors from Thomas Jefferson School of Law in San Diego in 2014. In addition to my degree, I received a Certificate in Social Justice in recognition of my contributions and commitment to serving my local community during law school.
After passing the California Bar Exam on my first attempt, I established my solo practice, where I have helped numerous immigrants from Ethiopia, Eritrea, Kenya, and West Africa in their pursuit of the American dream. My work in family law is driven by a deep passion for helping families navigate difficult and emotionally challenging times.
I assist clients in all U.S. states with a wide range of immigration matters, including:
✔ Removal Defense & Asylum
✔ Family-Based Immigration (Green Cards & Fiancé Visas)
✔ Employment-Based Visas and Adjustment of Status
✔ Naturalization & U.S. Citizenship
Why Choose Me?
My motto is simple: Every client is important and deserves personalized attention. When you work with me, you receive not only expert legal representation but also the dedication and support you deserve.

I hired Abby Bekele for a very simple case, and she asked me to deposit 5k (supposed to be $3600) and she asked me to pay additional $1700 for nothing after ~3months, since I was busy, I had no choice. Totally I spent around ~8K, should not be more than $3700.
