“Clients facing immigration issues have one of the toughest fights in the entire legal system. The laws are crafted to be biased against those wishing to come or stay in the country, and those in the system are unwilling to listen to those that do not have an attorney on their side. It is our honor to fight and win for you.”
-S. Yossof Sharifi

Our Immigration Attorneys
The immigration attorneys at Sharifi & Baron have the experience and dedication to fight hard for their clients. The immigration system can leave one feeling alone, and frightened.
Unfortunately, many attorneys will take your money and not fight for you. They will take cases they know nothing can be done on, often charging enormous fees, and leave their clients worse off than they were before hiring an attorney.
We feel this type of representation is a tragedy. Many clients come to immigration attorneys on the worst days of their life, and to have their attorneys take advantage of them is despicable. Don’t let that happen to you. As former prosecutors, we know how to fight hard and win for you.
Recent Immigration Victories
–Our client was facing deportation for several felony criminal convictions. We held a trial in immigration court, arguing the underlying offenses did not qualify him for deportation. The judge agreed over the strenous arguments of the ICE attorney, and our client was not deported.
–Our client had been in the United States for several years and wished to become a citizen. However, she had no family she could cite to qualify for a petition. After months of investigation, we found a qualifying relative. She received her family based petition, and is currently residing permanently in the United States.
–Our client was charged with several counts of theft. If convicted, ICE had the intention of deportation. We fought the criminal charges, and convinced the prosecution to offer a non-jailable offense, saving our client from deportation. She now lives legally in the United States and is on her way to becoming a citizen.
