I will recommend Attorney Dehghani & Associate without any eqviocation because he saved my life. He is amazing and knows his stuff. Attorney Dehghani was a beacon of hope to me at a time when options appeared limited and despairing and the likelihood of a resolution seemed completely impossible. All those I expected to intervene ignored me and gave me reason to feel completely vulnerable. Not only was he able to defend me, his undefeatable, persuasive, determined, and empathetic demeanor offered me emotional security. I am eternally grateful for his advocacy and services and I hereby recommend Attorney Dehghani & Associates without reservation.

I greatly recommend Kevin Dehghani as an attorney to anyone who is looking for an honest advise and professional representation. He represented me in court and I am very happy with results. He doesn't promise you a Wonderland, but tells you what you should really expect even before he takes your case. On top of it he is perfectionist. Mr. Dehghani will make sure to find every option available to benefit you. He is a highly regarded attorney and a respected one inside and outside a courtroom. I am a witness to it.

Mr. Dehghani is very good immigration lawyer that helped me and my husband a lot. We were kept informed of the progress of our case through the system. He is patient and paying attention to detail. His assistant is also very knowledgeable, helpful and professional. We couldn’t ask for a smoother experience with his professional advice. He was extremely helpful, very responsive, and was clear every step of the way.

Very Thankful for Lawyer Dehghani, before him I had try with three different Lawyers with my immigration status and none of them couldn't help me. I was about to be deported and Lawyer Dehghani was so helpful and thanks for his service and help I have a resident card. So grateful and I'm very pleased with his consultations.

Kevin is a very talented and knowledgeable attorney in his areas of specialization. A close friend of mine had a complex immigration matter and the only person I thought of to handle the matter was Kevin, who specializes in these specific cases. I hired Kevin for my friend. Not to my surprise, Kevin handled the matter in the most human, dignified, and professional manner for my friend, and avoided a lot of unnecessary time and work. My friend was elated with the cost and level of expertise he received. I highly recommend Kevin Dehgani in nearly any immigration matter one would want done correctly the first time.

It is impossible to summarize the incredible experience we had with Attorney Kevin Dehghani. His professionalism, determination, fortitude and dedication to his clients, we encountered almost daily, for a full year. We originally sought his counsel in 2012 after being misled by an Immigration attorney in NYC for over 2 years. Atty. Dehghani faced his first challenge with us in obtaining documents from the previous lawyer. Then, what should have been a straight-forward Immigration case, based on Federal Court ruling (Dist. 2, Oct. 2012) of DOMA as Un-Constitutional, turned into one Atty. Dehghani, nor anyone, could have anticipated. The benefits entitled to any foreign sponsored spouse, were legally available prior to the Supreme Court Ruling in June. We are a male couple; American and British and were married November 11, 2011 in Newtown, Connecticut (July 2012 our marriage license was recognized by the UK Govt.). Despite U.S. Federal laws in place when we applied, our spousal petition was summarily denied by USCIS, twice. Atty. Dehghani faced unprecedented legal obstacles, with new laws in an area that few attorneys had ever encountered. He did not hesitate to move quickly and challenge USCIS on what laws they had not followed. He has an unbelievable knowledge of the law and a determination to see all are adhered to for all his clients. In June 2012, when the Supreme Court upheld the earlier ruling, our immigration application was still improperly handled by USCIS. Atty. Dehghani was always, professional, persistent, and showed a determination to be sure the new laws were going to be followed, and USCIS, who had not followed them before, were not going to be allowed to wait on addressing our case. Atty. Dehghani dealt with a full year of unprecedented legal set-backs and challenges, all due to unjust and incompetent oversight of federal law by the USCIS , the Dept. of Justice, and Homeland Security. Atty. Dehghani went above and beyond, battling an immigration system that is broken, a new legal precedent that had not be dealt with by other attorneys, and throughout it all, remained on top of every aspect that we could never properly sum up in a “review”. His compassion for the rights of individuals was evident the first day we met him. His work ethic was proven when he obtained the first same-sex sponsored green-card for a Connecticut couple. If you have any doubts about whether to obtain his counsel, we guarantee, you should have none!

My Wife had a case that no lawyers wanted to take because of its type. Mr. Dehghani took it, studied it, and call me back telling me that the case was really difficult to win but that he was going to try. She got couple denials. The last one, I told him , "That's it! I won't try anymore". He came back to me and told me that we had a good chance to win the case the next time because of some reasons that just he can explain. Finally, after so many hearings, he won the case for my wife after waiting for almost 19 years. Every time there was a hearing, Mr. Dehghani looked like he was traveling because the file was so big that he had it in a 50 pounds suitcase. GO FOR IT, HE IS GOOOOOOODD.
