Arrived to the U.S. as a child refugee from Iraq in 1995, I have dedicated my life to helping future immigrants and refugees access the freedom and protection that this great country offers. With over a decade of experience in the legal field, I discovered my true calling in assisting individuals with immigration legal matters. After graduating from law school and successfully passing the Michigan bar exam, I established a boutique law firm in Sterling Heights, Michigan as a solo practitioner, focusing on serving the community that I am deeply connected to. I find great fulfillment in providing representation to those in need, as this profession is not just a career for me, but a true passion that drives me every day
