Complex Matters,
Explained Simply
You Should Understand Every Decision You Make
Awad & Khoury, LLP focuses on complex matrimonial, immigration, real estate, and estate planning matters. We put complex legal issues into language you can actually use, because a decision you do not fully understand is not a decision you can make well.
When you are facing a major decision, you deserve counsel who listens and examines the facts before advising you. That is why every client here works directly with a partner, not a rotating cast of associates. You explain your situation once, and the person who hears it is the person who handles it.
Our attorneys and staff speak Arabic, Macedonian, Serbian, Italian, and Portuguese, in addition to English. If your first language is not English, you can still get a straight answer from us without losing anything in translation.
