Very honest and trustworthy

Roxana is the most honest and trustworthy lawyer I have ever met. She has saved me so much time and money outside of court. She is very educated in every legal matter I have had. Roxana is far from your typical lawyer looking to keep your matter lingering in the court system. She completes everyt...hing in a timely manner and sets proper expectations on the possible outcomes and time frames. I highly recommend her and have already referred my family and friends to her.

What a great and supportive lawyer!

Thank you so much for all your help Ms. Amini! I never thought I needed a lawyer ever in my life but Roxana is a great lawyer that helped me on a problem with my previous employer. She took time out of her busy day to hear my story and decided to take it on after only a 10-minute conversation. Sh...e kept in contact with me the whole time, letting me know what I should do and if there were any updates. She is definitely someone I would recommend and go back to if I ever have any other legal troubles.

Thank you!

Ms. Amini has made my legal problems so much easier to handle. She is caring, knowledgable, and made a dreadful experience comfortable to deal with. She gave me the facts and explained the procedure. I cannot get into the details of the two issues I had, one was a PI case, the other a business br...eech of contract issue. I spoke to multiple attorneys about both of these cases as they dragged on and Ms. Amini was the last and final attorney who brought peace into my life by giving me the honest truth in a situation where the other attorneys had been negligent and dishonest. I highly value Ms. Amini and am ever grateful for her invaluable legal advice and the her deep level of care of each of my issues.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • 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.
