Experienced Negotiator

Sholeh is great. Her experience and reputation speed up the process of finalizing my immigration and criminal cases. She was able to work with the DA reasonably to come to a fair offer in my cases. I cannot express my gratitude to Sholeh and her team.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I endorse this lawyer. Sholeh is an experienced and dedicated attorney who has consistently risen above the rest. She is highly intelligent with knowledge and certifications in various fields. This diversified knowledge translates into superpowers when it comes to defense of her clients. It's not enough to know the law. An attorney needs to be well-rounded and accomplished to be able to make complex information into small easy-to-understand bits of information. When that is done, the jury will be better able to understand your complex situation, and as a result, they'll be able to see things from your perspective. Sholeh is also a leader and mentor to law students, attorneys and other professionals. You'd be hard-pressed in finding an accomplished attorney like Sholeh."

"I have had the distinct honor of knowing attorney Sholeh Iravanchi since the year 2000 while attending law school. Sholeh was very generous with her time in assisting me and other college-mates with the Bar Exam Preparation. Since our law school graduation, I have consulted Sholeh on legal issues including one appeals case and have been immensely impressed with her legal knowledge and attention to details. Sholeh is an ethical and conscientious legal counsel and I strongly recommend her for the areas of law she practices."

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.
