Very Helpful and Professional

I contacted Ms. Fattahi regarding the questions that I had about my employment-based immigration applications (H1-B and PERM). Although I called after working hours, she was available and answered my questions clearly and patiently. Her answers truly helped me to understand what are my options going ...forward. I really appreciate her assistance and highly recommend her.

Great immigration attorney

Ms. Fattahi is a very experienced and knowledgeable immigration attorney. She manages her clients' cases responsibly and professionally. She perfectly helped me applying for my case of adjustment of status. Her fluency in speaking both English and Farsi was amazing and helpful to us. Any time i had ...a question during the processing time of my case, she addressed my concern immediately. It was impressive that she was always aware and informed of the details regarding my case until my case got approved and i finally received my permanent resident card. She is definitely one of the best immigration lawyers and i highly recommend her.

A Prizewinning Lawyer

I had a J-1 visa that ended on August 31. 2015. I contacted Ms. Fattahi on June 2015, only 8 months later I was approved both for EB-1 visa and NIW visa. She is very focused, and fast. She is very knowledgeable and effective in her job. You will be in good hands. Thank you.

Superb, Smart, Dedicated and Phenomenal result

Mrs. Parva Fattahi represented me in an immigration case of EB1 US green cart. She is a very smart attorney who is eager to help as much as she can and knows her field best. She was totally top-notch with every thing she did from start to finish. With her great selection and organization of my docume...nts and papers, my case was approved swift and without any comment by the NVC one week after submission. She also was very supportive and was always available on the phone or email and responded to my queries promptly. I never felt uninformed or unaware of the next steps and what to expect for my case. For me and my family time was a big concern and she handled every process fast and tidy. All in all, I have to say my family and I are totally satisfied with her service and I recommend her for anyone seeking an attorney for immigration to US.

The Best Lawyer Ever!

Ms. Fattahi is absolutely the best immigration lawyer I ever came across. I am living in Miami and I see many people struggling to get their immigration documents and having headaches with lawyers who are not responsive at all. I called Ms. Fattahi when I had called three other lawyers who made me re...ally disappointed. Ms. Fattahi was the only one who said “YOU HAVE A CASE AND I CAN HELP YOU” and she really did. She lives in a different State (Maryland), but was able to work out my very difficult case to a successful conclusion. She did a fantastic job and now I have my Green Card in hand! Ms. Fattahi is very responsible, compassionate, and hard worker. She kept me informed, promptly returned my calls and answered any questions or concerns. She is very honest and straight forward. Thanks to her, I could get my life back in order. She is knowledgeable, responsive and caring. I highly recommend her.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
