About Arasto

I was born and raised in San Jose. I graduated from law school in May of 2010 and passed the California State Bar examination two months later in July. Since that date, I have devoted my practice to protecting consumers. My office consists of three attorneys and two support staff. We pride ourselves in treating all clients like family.

Review Arasto Farsad

Best and Most Reliable Attorney

Posted by

I’d like to express our gratitude and appreciation to Attny. Arasto Farsad who helped us overcome troublesome years in regards to our property. He’s professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. I feel confident and at ease when talking to him. After unsuccessful years of negotiating with our lender, we finally decided to sell our house in July of 2019. He walked us through the process and made sure we had a realtor that was reliable, trustworthy, and aggressive. I highly recommend Attorney Farsad for what he was able to accomplish for me and my family.

Farsad is not after your money. He treats you like a family. He will make your feel at ease in every way and goes an extra mile without asking additional fee. Him and his team has a very good communication that all questions are answered in a timely manner while in the process of bankruptcy. Him and his team was a God given gift to us.
