She never replied to our emails or calls

Unfortunately I trusted her based on these reviews and I blindly gave my file to her. It took a year just to open a case for us and she guaranteed our case will approve. But we rejected in 1 months after the submission and again she disappeared after that. She charged us fully and not willing to he...lp us on that rejection. I am really sorry for all money and time I spent.

Best immigration attorney in the country!!

Parva is by far the best immigration attorney in the country if you ask me. She handled our case with great and utmost professionalism. She listens to you and she’s very assuring when it comes immigration matters . By the way I wonder if she ever sleeps because numerous times I have sent her emails l...ate at night 2am , 3am with questions regarding my case and was expecting to hear back from her the next day but when I wake up at 5am and check my emails I see her response. She always has answers for any immigration matters. Immigration topics could be intimidating for most foreigners but this attorney definitely can handle any immigration cases out there because she was made for it. If anyone has immigration issues or matters going on please don’t be afraid just contact her she’s very professional and knows her job extremely well. My family is extremely grateful for you Parva. Thank you.

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.

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.
