Excellent Attorney

Having been through the system many times and having been represented by many lawyers, it was nice to finally have a lawyer who actually cared! Michael worked hard from the minute I hired him and in the end helped me avoid significant jail time. I am relieved I found such an excellent attorney.

Couldn't have asked for a better outcome!

After making some mistakes while intoxicated one night, I was facing prison time after being charged with a few felonies. I was really nervous. Fortunately, I had Mr. Nadimi as my lawyer. As someone who has had to navigate the criminal justice system before, I've seen good and bad lawyers. Mr. Nadim...i is neither. Instead, he is a GREAT lawyer. Mr. Nadimi's representation from A to Z was outstanding. He is a very detailed person and has a great command of the law. Additionally, he knows how present a convincing case in court. Because of Mr. Nadimi, I was able to leave the entire process with a low level offense and probation. I couldn't have asked for a better outcome. I highly recommend him.

Great advocate

Mr. Nadimi has a great presence and confidence in the courtroom. He was able to get me a great plea offer and I even avoided extra jail time. Highly recommend.
