I fully and without reservation recommend Ms. Moshrefi for Legal Services.

I fully and without reservation recommend Ms. Moshrefi for Legal Services. She is attentive to detail and fought vigorously in my behalf. She is truthful, and makes no promises that she cannot fill. She listened to me and evaluated what I was asking for and was blunt and to the point on what I cou...ld expect to be the outcome. She gave me the time to think through the problem and make the decision to go forward. I was kept up to date on all progress. All forms and documents were forwarded to me in a timely manner. Her instructions are clear and she answers questions in a way that is easily understood. On a scale of one to five, she receives a five+++. My particular case was difficult and she was professional at all times; she was firm and stood her ground on my behalf. For that I am truly grateful. Should I require legal services in the future Ms. Moshrefi will have first opportunity to handle my needs.

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.
