Nourian Law Firm: One of the Few DFW Attorneys Who Practices Immigration Only

Morrie Pour Nourian’s own client-facing materials make a specific claim: he is one of very few immigration attorneys in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex who practices immigration exclusively, with no personal injury, family law, or other practice areas competing for attention.

At a Glance: This Dallas Deportation Defense Attorney’s Credentials

I. Decades of Practice Rooted in International Study

Morrie Pour Nourian’s firm describes him as having studied both internationally and in the United States, with roots in the field dating to 1976. His State Bar of Texas listing shows admission covering Louisiana, the Fifth Circuit, and the Federal Circuit, alongside membership in the American Bar Association and the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA). His firm is described on its own materials as family owned and locally operated.

II. Practice Concentration

Nourian’s practice covers asylum, withholding of removal, and Convention Against Torture relief; permanent residency and naturalization; family and business immigration; detention and bond hearings; deportation proceedings; and appeals. His firm materials specifically note experience with matters involving the laws of Iran in addition to standard U.S. immigration law and international law generally, reflecting client demand from Dallas’s Iranian-American community, among others.

III. Track Record

Prior results do not guarantee or predict a similar outcome. Immigration case outcomes are typically approvals, denials, or case resolutions rather than dollar figures.

Client reviews reference a marijuana possession case resolved through cancellation of removal and describe a case initially characterized as an “aggravated felony” as ultimately resolved favorably, though Awesome Attorneys could not independently verify the specific procedural posture or outcome details of these cases beyond the client’s own account. The firm does not publish an itemized results table, and Awesome Attorneys is disclosing that gap directly.

IV. Client Voice

Client and peer reviews describe Nourian as a “no-nonsense, FIGHTER for his client’s rights” who has “successfully represented hundreds of people over the years.” One reviewer specifically noted that Nourian “may initially come off as abrupt and unfriendly” but is, underneath that exterior, “a genuine person” who works hard for clients — a candid, mixed characterization Awesome Attorneys is including because it reflects real client sentiment rather than uniformly polished praise. Other reviews describe reasonable pricing and clear process explanations across multiple family-member cases handled over several years.

V. Beyond the Courtroom

Nourian has been featured on Fox News as an immigration law advisor, providing outside media commentary on immigration policy topics. Awesome Attorneys did not identify formal bar leadership roles or published articles for this attorney during this research beyond his AILA and ABA memberships.

VI. Recognition

Awesome Attorneys did not identify Super Lawyers selection, Best Lawyers recognition, or board certification for this attorney during this research. His credentialing rests primarily on his stated decades of immigration-exclusive practice, AILA and ABA membership, and a sustained base of positive client endorsements rather than formal peer-nominated awards. Awesome Attorneys did not identify any marketing-program-only awards claimed by this attorney.

VII. The Texas Legal Backdrop

Nourian’s asylum and Convention Against Torture work proceeds through the Executive Office for Immigration Review’s federal immigration courts, with asylum claims generally requiring filing within one year of arrival under INA § 208 absent an exception. His cancellation-of-removal work for permanent residents runs through INA § 240A, which requires seven years of continuous residence and ten years of continuous physical presence depending on the specific form of relief sought, along with good moral character requirements. Bond hearings proceed before immigration judges under 8 C.F.R. § 1003.19.

VIII. Awesome Attorneys Assessment: This Dallas Immigration Lawyer’s Strengths and Limits

Nourian’s near-half-century in the field and his stated singular focus on immigration law — a genuine rarity among DFW immigration practitioners, many of whom handle immigration alongside personal injury or family law — reflects deep, concentrated subject-matter experience. His firm’s specific familiarity with Iranian immigration matters serves a meaningful niche within North Texas’s diverse immigrant population.

The honest limitation for readers of this directory is the absence of independently-conferred professional awards (Super Lawyers, Best Lawyers, board certification) as of this research, and at least one candid client review describing an initially unfriendly demeanor, even as that same reviewer affirmed his effectiveness. Prospective clients should weigh his stated decades of exclusive-focus experience and consistent effectiveness against the more limited formal peer-review credentialing compared to some other firms in this category.

IX. Methodology & Sourcing

This profile was compiled from the firm’s own website (nourianlaw.com); the State Bar of Texas directory listing; Avvo’s attorney profile and client reviews; and the Iranian Lawyer directory profile. No case results, credentials, or quotes were invented; where independent verification of specific case procedural details or aggregate outcomes was unavailable, that gap is disclosed rather than filled.
