Practice Areas: Immigration

I am a Certified Specialist in Immigration and Nationality Law by the State Bar of California Board of Legal Specialization. As an Iranian Jew, I came to the United States over 40 years ago, fleeing persecution. I was granted asylum status, which allowed me to stay safely in the United States and obtain all the benefits this wonderful country has to offer.. I have made it my life's mission to help others from all walks of life who are fleeing persecution, want a new start in this country, or have come to this land seeking the American dream. During the last 20+ years, I have consistently traveled all over the United States, defending people in various immigration courts from deportation and removal, whether in detained or non-detained settings. I have successfully represented thousands of clients before the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR), the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA), and various United States Circuit Court of Appeals legitimatizing their status here, allowing my clients to live and work in the United States. Each time a client is granted relief and is able to stay, the joy I receive is second to none.. I received my undergraduate degree from UCLA and my law degree from Southwestern University School of Law. During law school, I served as an extern for the Honorable Alan M. Ahart, United States District Court, Central District, California.. As a lawyer, I have learned that not everybody wins. This is why an attorney who, like myself, knows the law, is attentive to detail, compassionate, and not afraid to vigorously fight on behalf of his clients helps increase the chances of success. I routinely represent clients in a wide range of complex immigration issues across the United States.. Please feel free to contact my office today for a consultation.

Firm: Law Office of David J. Holcomb

2075 Diamond Boulevard , Concord , California 94520

Practice Areas: Family

I spent 15 years as a very aggressive civil litigator before finding a calling in family law.    For the first 5 years doing divorce cases, I often fought hard in and out of court for my clients, because we both believed that served them best.    As I've matured in life and in practice (I'm a divorced dad myself), I learned how conflict and aggressive court actions often heighten bad feelings, and block both realistic resolution and healing.. While we do find that judicial input is helpful in some cases, most of my cases are resolved cooperatively, by opening communication and building trust between parties and their attorneys if they have one.. I have positive relationships with my both my co-parents, and very happy, healthy relationships with grown children, and an 8 year old boy, as well as two young teens who have come to me in my new relationship.  When not parenting, I'm bicycling, motorcycling, engaging in men's circles (ManKind Project, The Men's Circle Berkeley), going to the gym, gardening, hiking, camping and supporting friends and family emotionally and socially.

I am a Founding Partner, at Hiden, Rott & Oertle, LLP.   I am a firm believer in communication.  I pride myself in keeping clients involved and informed in every step of their case.. I also know that it is equally important to communicate with the opposing party and their lawyers, as they are the gate keepers to resolving your claim.. While litigation and trial is always an option, I have been extremely successful in resolving our clients claims at early stages in the process, while being able to fully maximize our clients settlements.  The reason for this high success rate is preparation...preparing your case early in the game, so that trial is an option and not merely the only avenue.. Because in the end, delays prevent you from getting on with your life and focusing on the positive aspects that involve friends, family and travel, which offers great peace of mind.. Not to worry, in the event your case will not informally resolve for a great result that we believe is right for you; your injuries; and the case, we will take your case to trial.. Contact me at your convenience, as I make myself extremely accessible to existing clients, as well as perspective ones.  I have a phenomenal track record.  You will be glad you contacted me.
