I found Ms. Esmaili name's through a referral since she is the President of the Iranian American Bar Association (IABA). She was so kind to refer and reach out to her connections of the Iranian community for a referral on a child adoption. I was so impressed by her immediate response back to me and reaching out to her contacts. I had not had any legal bankruptcy transactions with her but surely impressed with Ms. involvement on a volunteer basis to assist me with my legal problem. read more
