Posted by anonymous | May 22, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Speeding & Traffic Ticket

Thank you so much!

My experience with Dayani Law Firm was excellent. Andre accomplished something I thought was impossible, through sheer persistence and determination to help me. Having him advocating on my behalf was an incredible relief, and his calm, gentle nature was so comforting. I also appreciated so much that ...even when it seemed we weren’t making headway when waiting for certain entities to respond, he let me know he was still there, not to lose hope. He also clearly explained all processes and his plan of action at every step in my case. He was able to obtain clearance from another state (for thirty-year-old non-moving traffic violations that their DMV wouldn’t release, but the court couldn’t find...) releasing my Washington license. He also represented me in court, for two citations I’d received here in Washington, obtaining a dismissal of one item, and appealed to the court with circumstances that changed the fine on the item I was indeed responsible for, but with more to the story. The court agreed, and lowered the fine I was required to pay. Thank you again, Andre. I’m so fortunate to have had you to solve this complicated puzzle.

Andre sets the bar...

I was thrust into a situation needing representation and Andre came highly recommended. He worked diligently to get me the very best results, excellent communication to keep me informed of progress and status, and accommodated my busy schedule and remote location. Things can get emotional and having ...the right person to be your voice and shield means everything in getting a great outcome. Thank you for your fine work!

Highly recommend!!!

Came to Andre through Nur law and they are amazing attorneys. Could not be happier with the outcome of my car crash case. They are attentive, vigilant, professional, down to earth and understanding! If you want attorneys who will sincerely care about your outcome and best interests they rise to the o...ccasion. My accident was complicated and previously neglected by a different Seattle attorney to the point of having no outcome for over 3 years almost passing the statute of limitations. To make matters worse the driver that hit me wanted to pursue me for damages?! It was incredibly disheartening. I didn't expect a very good outcome at this point. Coming to them through another clients referral gave me a ton of hope that I could at least get everything dropped. They definitely surpassed my expectations by getting me a settlement for the damages I incurred and dismissed the other drivers accusations!!! :) I will definitely be recommending all my friends and family to come to this firm! Incredibly grateful to be able to put this behind me now thanks to them.

Serving alcohol to a minor

Andre was referred to me by another attorney just in the nick of time. I was appointed a public defender for the tune of $600 for a very minor case. Andre, having worked as a public defender in the same court for three or four years was not only more affordable, he was well adept to that system and e...ven knew the judge. Communication with Andre leading up to the pre trial date was clear and easy. All the charges were dropped and I felt very satisfied with my experience in hiring Andre. Would definitely work with him again and could not recommend his expertise more.

Thank you, Holly. It was a pleasure working with you. I am very happy that we were able to get the Judge to dismiss all charges!
