About Mercedes Varasteh
Mercedes Varasteh Dordeski earned her law degree from Wayne State University Law School in 2007 after completing a double major in Broadcast/Cable Production and Journalism at Western Michigan University in 2003. Her academic path combined practical storytelling and legal training. Those early choices shaped a career that moves between courtroom procedure and careful attention to written records.
She began practicing soon after finishing law school and is admitted to practice in Michigan and several federal courts, including the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan, the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Michigan, and the U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado. Those admissions allow her to appear in both state trial matters and federal proceedings. The record lists experience at Frank Haron Weiner, P.L.C., where she has been associated with case work and client representation.
Before and alongside her legal work, Dordeski’s undergraduate training in broadcast and journalism continues to show. She writes clearly and prefers direct explanations when preparing filings. That style translates to court submissions and client communications. It also helps when explaining complex legal processes to people who are not lawyers.
Her career touches several areas of practice. The jurisdictions to which she is admitted suggest involvement in matters that require federal court appearances as well as state court work in Michigan. Colleagues describe her approach as methodical; she emphasizes preparation and procedural accuracy. She has maintained professional ties with Behavioral Health Professionals Inc., reflecting an intersection between legal practice and organizations that operate in health-related fields.
Dordeski balances litigation responsibilities with the administrative demands of representing clients in multiple venues. She has navigated differing federal rules and local court requirements by keeping careful track of deadlines and procedural nuances. That attention to detail is central to how she manages cases across district lines.
She continues to practice law in Michigan and is admitted to appear before several federal courts. Her current practice centers on representing clients in state and federal proceedings and supporting organizations in matters that touch on both legal and behavioral health considerations.
