We take pride in delivering a personalized service to all of our clients. Here are few testimonials from our previous clients found on social media:

“Makan Shirafkan is an incredibly skilled counsellor, who dedicates himself to your case from start to finish. When I was charged with a very serious violation.

At first, every single person I spoke to told me that there was no way that I would be able to avoid a fairly lengthy jail sentence. As you can imagine I was extremely concerned and worried about my future.

After I was referred to Makan by someone very close to me, those concerns vanished.

From our very first conversation, Makan brought a level of seriousness and professionalism to my case, while remaining an absolute pleasure to work with.

He always had very clear instructions, and explained things thoroughly; it was clear to me that Makan thought of us as a team and truly cared about the outcome. I cannot say enough about Makan, both as a man and a lawyer. I highly recommend his services and am sure that if I ever need counselling again Makan will be the man that I call.

” S.E “Our entire family thanks you for saving our father from the system that presumed he was guilty all along” P.Sh “Makan is professional, knowledgeable and competent. He makes it clear that you are not just a “case” to him and shows compassion and concern.

So thankful for all of his help. I’ve referred friends to him and they have also had great experiences with him” Kelly

Therefore, I make thorough explanations a top priority. Client education is simply the first step to success. As a child of an immigrant, my experience has motivated me to have a unique appreciation for what an immigration status in this country means.

Law Office of Shirafkan: I understand that such a status is not just an Alien Number. It’s the livelihood of an entire family tree.

I still remember the night when our plane landed in Sacramento International Airport and I walked for the first time on U.S. ground. As a person who at the age of 19 was wrongly charged, convicted, and imprisoned, I have a unique appreciation for freedom and fighting for those accused of wrongdoing by our criminal justice system.

In my opinion, the Rodney King case helped O.J Simpson trial and O.J. Simpson trial hurt many cases after. I saw with my own eyes how Lady justice is sometimes too blind.

I love the ability to give a voice to the accused, and the responsibility of protecting their rights.

As a business owner & operator of businesses for over two decades, I understand that your business is the means by which you provide for your family; in some cases, your entire saving in past and for future.
