About Sahar

Sahar Mousavi trained in two legal systems before opening her own practice. She completed an LL.B. at Shahid Beheshti University in 2013 and earned an LL.M. from the University of California, Berkeley School of Law in 2015. She also holds a Private International Law certificate from The Hague Academy of International Law.

Her education set a clear geographic arc: early legal training in Tehran, advanced study in California. Those steps inform the work she does now. After finishing the LL.M., she stayed in California and built a practice that reflects both jurisdictions and international elements.

Mousavi practices through the Law Office of Sahar Mousavi, PC. The office bears her name and serves as the central base for her casework and client consultations. Operating a small firm has allowed her to handle matters end to end. She manages case intake, strategy, filings and client communications rather than splitting those tasks across layers of staff.

Memberships and continuing study play a regular role in her professional life. She is a current member of the American Immigration Lawyers Association. The Hague Academy certificate signals a specific interest in private international law and cross-border issues. That combination of immigration association ties and international law training shapes the kinds of matters she accepts.

Colleagues describe her approach as methodical. She parses statutes and regulations carefully. She prepares clients for hearings and expects them to be informed partners in the process. Her practice routine involves close review of documents, preparation of written submissions, and attention to procedural deadlines. She also draws on comparative-law training when cases raise questions that touch both U.S. and foreign legal rules.

Public records show her admitted to practice in California. She has used that admission to represent clients in immigration-related proceedings and related civil matters that implicate private international law principles. Her background in two legal systems helps when a case involves documents, decisions, or legal concepts from outside the United States.

She maintains an active solo practice in California through the Law Office of Sahar Mousavi, PC. Her work centers on immigration and private international law matters.
