About Ali

Ali handles complicated disputes where creative thinking and nimble strategy are the key to client success. Beyond litigation, Ali counsels clients regarding protections that help limit the risks and costs of future disputes. While many litigators have a sue-first mentality, Ali works closely with clients to develop creative and aggressive strategies to quickly achieve the client’s objectives while minimizing the costs and risks of litigation.

 

Probably the only lawyer with a workout calender in his office, Ali loves the gym.  He is also a regular at the local CrossFit box. Ali enjoys making his dad’s recipes and creating his own, as well as teaching others how to make healthy meals.  Above all else, Ali just enjoys hanging out with his family and doing whatever comes to mind.

Repeat Client

Posted by

This is my second case with Ali Yousefi. His patience, professionalism and gentle demeanor made it an easy decision to use his services again. I am not particularly litigious but I was having some issues with an insurance company after a car accident. It was frustrating and extremely stressful. So I called Ali and we discussed my issues and my goals- to stop the harassment and that my hospital bill be paid. It was an instant load of my shoulders. Based on our previous case I knew my interests would be paramount and that the case would be handled appropriately. I am actually now one of those people who “has a lawyer”. I am thankful that my lawyer is Ali Yousefi and I will confidently use his services should the need arise!

Great experience!

Posted by

Ali was very instrumental in settlement of my financial claims against my ex. From our first phone consultation in which he laid out the options and clearly explained to me how things would unfold, until the case was wrapped up he worked with me along the way. He is very accommodating, helpful, prompt and expert in his profession. While many lawyers didn't seem interested to pursue my case considering the costs, he knew from the beginning that a demand letter would very likely result in settlement. I am pleased that I worked with him!

Honest, reliable highly recommended

Posted by

If you or someone you know needs an attorney for an issue, Ali is your man! I have hired Ali for multiple different cases. My outcome was as good as I could have hoped each time. I've called him for advice on all issues and he's always available. If he's not, he emails or calls back within a few hours or so, which is not something you can say about most lawyers nowadays. There has not been a single time where I had to call more than once for him to get back to me. Ali gives everything he has for you, which in my opinion, is one of the most important things in picking an attorney. Until meeting Ali, I was not satisfied with other attorneys I met with. That was one of the main reasons I chose Ali, because he was available, compassionate and put in his all every time. Everyone who has asked me to recommend an attorney, I've given them Ali's number with no hesitation. He always fights for more and always aims for the best outcome putting everything he has into each client. He makes an effort to meet with his clients and doesn't put them off and lengthen the process because he's "busy" with a "more important case/client". He gives a detailed explanation of all possible options leaving you more encouraged and empowered because of his professionalism and compassion. I wish I could give more than 5 stars for his efficiency, reliability, availability, and professionalism.

Somone on your side

Posted by

Ali very recently represented me in a divorce. I found him to be a very honest and trustworthy person throughout the few months we worked together. I was clueless about the divorce process and quite shocked at some of the procedures and opposing counsel demands and Ali was very patient and understanding with me. He made a very difficult time bearable for me. With Ali, I felt that someone was on my side and doing everything possible to protect me. I highly recommend Ali Yousefi to anyone who wants to work with someone honest and hardworking. He is high caliber and a blackbelt at his craft.

Best Attorney Award

Posted by

I and my brother truly appreciated him for all his guidance. The help he gave us was very appreciated. He was very professional and provided above and beyond the level of service to us. He was easy to call and contact by email 24/7. He answered all our questions and eased our concerns. Without a doubt, the most professional lawyer I've ever dealt with. I wish I could nominate him for some kind of best attorney award because I truly think he deserves it. Sohail K.

Auto Accident Case

Posted by

I was in an auto accident a few months ago and hired Ali Yousefi to represent me in my Auto Accident Case. I can't say enough about Ali. My accident was absolutely horrible and the person that rear ended me did not have adequate insurance coverage. Ali worked hard with the insurance company to obtain a better settlement for me. He was always available and got back to me right away. His level of service and dedication to my case was beyond amazing! If you've been in an auto accident and looking for representation, I highly recommend Ali Yousefi for your personal injury case.
