Best immigration lawyer ever.

I’ve been Abdoul’s client for the last five year. I came to his office after being detained in the airport for seeking asylum. I just looked for a lawyer in MD and he was the the one that pops up in my screen with good reviews so , I put all my hopes and hired him. He has such a cool vibe and explain...s all the questions you have and boy, I did have a bunch of questions all the time. He was always understanding, answering my emails even Sunday’s. If you are his client he will take care of you. My case evolved in a successful family petition and I witnessed his professionalism, knowledge of the immigrations law and commitment with the immigrants community.

Client

I highly recommend Mr. Abdoul for all your legal matters. He takes time to understand my issues and concerns he took all my calls personally even on weekends when I thought I would get a voice mail to my surprise he picked up the phone and reassured me that everything will be fine. I have looked for ...and talked to a number of lawyers over the past few years and only he and another lawyer were willing to take my case I chose Mr. Abdoul because he was not only willing to work with us in the cost he seemed to be truly concerned for myself and my family. He treated me with so much respect and dignity. I thank you Mr. Abdoul you saves our family and for that I am grateful to have found you.

Excellent lawyer

Mr. Konare is a great and honest lawyer. He help my husband with his case and I loved the way he handle everything and how he is always in contact with his clients.

Imigration Genius.

I dealt with Abdoul regarding my wifes status. He was very pleasent and extremely knowledgable, he sat down with us and laid out the entire process the first day. After we started the process he handled all the paperwork, assisted in reviewing our documents, and would have everything ready for us to ...sign by our next meeting. Abdoul went out of his way to go to the imigration office with my wife for her paperwork and meetings. Abdoul would help us get the necessairy documents together so that when the one process ended then the next would be right around the corner. Being that we needed this as fast as possible he went out of his way communicating with imigration and the judges in order to get everything as fast as possible without any setbacks. I am ever greatful for his assistance.

Great immigration lawyer in Frederick, MD!

We have been to different consultations by different lawyers and left unsatisfied with their advice. After a friend of ours recommended Abdul's law firm to us, we thought to give him a try and schedule a free consultation with him. After meeting up with him, both my husband and I were very pleased an...d agreed that this attorney would be the right one for us to start our immigration process. No disappointment from his law firm has ever crossed our way. He helped us out tremendously with difficult situations, always answered on time, flexible schedule, and very professional. I highly recommend Abdul Konare to work with your immigration needs. I promise, you won't be disappointed!
