Asif Ehsan
Founder & Managing Attorney
Asif Ehsan, founder and managing attorney of Ehsan Law, PLLC, is not only a dedicated immigration attorney — he is also a living testament to the transformative power of opportunity, resilience, and service.
Asif has been a direct beneficiary of this country's generosity. He first came to the United States as a Fulbright Scholar, earning his Bachelor's degree from Macalester College in Minnesota. After graduating from Kabul University's Law Faculty (College of Law), he returned through a U.S. Department of State-funded scholarship to complete his Master of Laws (LL.M.) at Washington and Lee University School of Law in Virginia.
His dream was to use the legal education and values he had gained in the United States to help create a justice system that served the people of Afghanistan. He worked in various legal and reform-focused roles and taught law at the university level.
However, after completing his Juris Doctor (J.D.) at the Sandra Day O'Connor College of Law at Arizona State University, the situation in Afghanistan was deteriorating significantly. Returning was no longer safe. Asif was forced to make an incredibly difficult choice: to remain in the United States and start over once again — this time as a refugee.
It was during this time of deep uncertainty that Asif became the client of a skilled and compassionate immigration attorney. Through that attorney's tireless advocacy, he was able to secure the legal right to remain in the United States.
That experience didn't just alter the course of his life — it became the foundation of his life's mission.
"We help immigrants build a secure future in the United States because we understand both the legal process and the human journey."
Before starting his own firm, Asif served as a prosecutor in Minnesota and Washington, handling cases from charging through jury trial. Today, his immigration practice focuses on high-stakes matters including asylum, removal defense, BIA appeals, Afghan SIV and Chief of Mission (COM) issues, federal habeas corpus for immigration detention, mandamus lawsuits for unreasonable immigration delays, family immigration, and asylee adjustment.
