Definitely the best attorney I have met.

I had the good luck that my company selected Moona to help us out with this lengthy, painful and stressful Green Card process. She is a very knowledgeable and supportive attorney that always made me feel that I was in the best hands and every time we had a stone or any bump in the road she was always... there for me and to help me stay relaxed and focused. She never gave me false hopes and was always upfront and honest along the whole process, which made me trust her and I knew she was taking care of my case and feel everything was going to be fine, and at the end it was, so we will always be thankful to her for all her support and the end result. I definitely recommend her without any hesitation.

Moona is very thorough in processing immigration applications and her successful rate is very high

Moona is our company immigration attorney for the last 15 years. She has successfully processed several H1b, and green cards for our company employee including me .I was kept informed of all actions and progress through emails, and phone calls. It was never hard to reach her and she replied our ques...tions promptly. I impressed by her professionalism, honesty, and empathy with clients. She argues with the perfect balance of logic, passion, and confidence. She is incredibly intelligent. I honestly recommend Moona to anyone in need of legal assistance in immigration...Ibrahim

An excellent and knowledgeable lawyer in Arlington

We enlisted Ms. Shakil’s services when we were going through the process of applying for a Greencard. When deciding which lawyer to choose, we shortlisted several in the Arlington, VA area and spoke to multiple on the phone, and we were most impressed with Moona. Over the phone, she seemed very o...pen and willing to have a dialogue with us, so we chose to schedule a consultation with her. The consultation just cemented to us what a good attorney Ms. Shakil was. She outlined to us in great detail all the steps of our application process, and all of the things that were our responsibility and things she could help us with. She reassured us that she would be with us every step of the way, so we chose to retain her services. Throughout the application process, she could not have been a more pleasant person to work with. She was very prompt in returning calls and emails, and always made time to clarify any questions or concerns we had. She eased all of our concerns and made the application process as painless as possible. She also made herself available to represent us at the USCIS interview. We would wholeheartedly recommend the services of Ms. Shakil to anyone looking for an immigration lawyer in the DC/Northern Virginia/MD area.

Knowledgeable, Competent, and Efficient Immigration Lawyer

Moona Shakil has a vast amount of experience and knowledge in immigration law, and that becomes immediately apparent in conversations with her. She is an impressive, competent and conscientious lawyer who helped come through for us with a unique circumstance in my sister-in-law's immigration case. Sh...e was at a loss and under stress, not knowing how to proceed. I had heard about Moona and, after an initial consultation, decided to retain her services. Moona discussed the situation at length and helped her submit everything we needed for my sis-in-law's specific case. Moona had handled the case with much patience, professionalism, and efficiency. Not only that, Moona saved our family a lot of undue stress and answered any questions we had related to the case. Competent lawyer! Excellent service! Go with her, and you will not regret!

Excellent Experience and Highly Recommend retaining services for anyone going through naturalization or immigration process

I have had the pleasure of working with Mrs. Shakil for the past 3 years. We first retained her services for assistance with a family member's case and was so impressed with Moona's work that we have continued to use for other matters. Moona is professional, timely and detail oriented which makes wha...t can be an overwhelming and confusing process more peaceful. She consistently provides sound advice and guidance on immigration issues and allowed for us to feel much more confident in moving through the immigration process. Additionally, Moona made us feel like we were her most important clients, never making us feel our many, many questions were a burden but rather welcomed. I highly recommend retaining Mrs. Shakil's services to anyone who is trying to navigate the US immigration and naturalization process.
