Superb and Realistic Lawyer

This is a long time in the writing since I hired Ms. Mojaddidi in 2014. She was knowledgeable, thorough, and responsive. She was able to hone in on the real issues and not get caught up in the things that did not matter. Her commanding knowledge of the law was extraordinary. I come from a legal backg...round so can be a harsh judge of lawyers and their performance, but the representation I received was nothing short of spectacular and exceeded my expectations.

Amazing Attorney with Caring Attitude

I was referred to Wazhma through a friend, and I hired her immediately after our first meeting. I filed for annulment after my wife took off after getting her Green Card, she was the only lawyer to suggest me with annulment. and also she gave me a lot of confidence to fight the case. She was passio...nate and caring towards my case, was always on top of her game. She understood my case, responded on time and was always there to help me out at all time. She impeached my Ex many times in the court and helped me in getting my annulment. Her knowledge about immigration law and Family law is amazing, and she understands our culture properly. Simply saying " She is the Best".

Honest, hardworking, compassionate, and intelligent attorney

I approached Wazhma to represent me on my divorce case and I have been very happy with the way she handled my case. I wish I had come to her earlier and saved a lot of money and stress but I am happy I was able to find her when things were really heading south. My case was complicated as my ex did no...t care how much money she spent as long as they can affect me financially and emotionally. It might be useful to readers to understand why I found Wahzma better than the other two lawyers. When I first received my divorce papers I wasn't in a position to personally meet the lawyers to find out whether my lawyer understands the complexity of my case. I looked up reviews and went with an attorney who had excellent credentials, top rating on Avvo, and I simply handed over my case to them. While the attorney appeared competent he was not assertive enough to stop the other party's tricks. Rather I was convinced to work with other party in an attempt to avoid trial because I was short of funds. This resulted in putting me, the father of my child, in a very bad situation. I switched to the second lawyer because I received positive feedback about her from an acquaintance. She was better but she could not understand the underlying bad faith moves played by my ex as things got complicated because the lawyer was from a different cultural background. She couldn't corner the other party effectively and I incurred huge expenditure. I lost hope on attorneys and wanted to self represent. At that point, I picked Wazhma because I could relate to her cultural background and she had good reviews on Avvo. However, due to prior bad experiences and expenses, at first I intended to use Wazhma's services for paper work only. Inspite of the limited scope, Wazhma jumped on my case right away, understood the complexity and immediately suggested what steps we need to take to tame the other party. I didn't need to explain much from my part as Wazhma understood everything that has happened in prior two years almost immediately. Even though she went through a trial on another case a few days earlier, Wazhma surprised me with her memory, attention to detail, and clarity of thought on my case. Long story short she made the impossible possible on the first issue in my case and I will be grateful to her forever. Wazhma represented me on the child custody trial as well and did an excellent job. She did depositions, cross-examinations for the trial asking questions with amazing clarity and spontaneous thinking. It was truly a speechless experience working with her. She cornered my ex's attorney to an extent that the attorney had no other trick to play except calling in sick and buy time! Although in the end my case fell prey to the widely recognized family court bias, Wazhma did everything on her end to get me justice and I am completely satisfied with her work.He knowledge on immigration issues also came in handy. Thanks to Wazhma's services and cooperation during the rough times I went through both financially and emotionally. I highly recommend Wazhma to everyone who wants their attorney to be smart, work hard, and care for them during divorce.

Absolutely Fantasic!

Being that I live in Arizona and my divorce case was based in Sacramento, California, I was a little worried about how I was going to get a conclusion to my divorce case with the distance and my limited funds. I had already worked with a couple of other lawyers who took my money and didn’t do a thing... for me. Feeling defeated and worn down I looked for one final attorney who could push my case to finality. I searched website upon website reading reviews and opinions to hopefully find the right attorney for me. I contacted and later hired Wazhma and she was able to accomplish more in the 6 months she represented me, than the combination of lawyer’s I had for the previous 3 years. She was able to bring a conclusion to an emotionally and financially draining experience that lasted for almost five years. I am finally free of court proceedings and no longer have to worry about my ex-wife using something I’ve said against me in court. Wazhma was always available when I needed to talk to her, and would usually respond either right away or within a few hours. She is incredibly easy to talk to, and she really takes the effort to understand your case and what you want to achieve out of it. In hearings she was very stern, and would not let the opposing council push her around and always strived to get me the best outcome. I cannot say enough good things about her professionalism and experience in the family law field. I would recommend Wazhma to anyone who needs legal help with family law. She’s fantastic. Thank you Wazhma, you have given me the ability to move forward with my life.

Mother, humanitarian and lawyer

Wahzma is amazing. If that statement was not enough for you then keep reading, her performance in my case impressed me to my core. Her ability to be stern when needed but also humane on an emotional level impressed myself and the other party. I was informed constantly and she was never farther away... than a quick email. Not only has her professional character amazed me but her ability to balance being a mother as well. Kudos to another strong woman! Hire this amazing woman and you will not be disappointed.
