Immigration Law – Building Your Future in the U.S.

Estate Planning – Protecting What You’ve Built
Having helped countless families achieve legal stability through immigration, Elham recognized the next step many of her clients faced — ensuring their security, dignity, and legacy through thoughtful estate planning.
Her estate planning practice is built around the same principles that define her immigration work: care, clarity, and commitment to family well-being. She helps clients design plans that protect their loved ones, preserve their assets, and ensure their wishes are honored through:
- Wills and trusts
- Powers of attorney and advance healthcare directives
- Asset protection and legacy planning
For many immigrant families, estate planning brings lasting peace of mind — bridging generations and safeguarding what they’ve worked so hard to achieve.
A Holistic Approach – From Residency to Legacy
Elham’s unique dual focus on immigration and estate planning allows her to serve families through all stages of life in the U.S. — from obtaining lawful status to planning for long-term security.
She provides specialized representation for undocumented minors seeking SIJS, navigating both the state court guardianship process and federal immigration relief. This holistic perspective ensures families are protected in every sense — legally, emotionally, and financially.
