About Hiba

"Ms. Ghalib turned out not just to be a great lawyer but a great listener as well. She understood that in Immigration, sometimes just calming our fears was as important as dealing with USCIS.

Hiba also felt very welcoming in discussing our case with us, while also giving us insights into the USCIS process. We never got the sense that we were 'bothering her', rather that we were a team." -client review

Review Hiba Ghalib

Incredibly helpful

Posted by

We had a very time sensitive matter after discovering our friend accidentally entered the country years ago on the wrong visa. He was coming here on a student visa for international studies but because he traveled to New York first for vacation before reporting to the school the wrong visa was used. Now two Years later it was discovered that he was here illegally because the travel visa expired two years prior. Because his student visa was still valid, he was told by the school to leave the country and re-enter on his student visa to correct the issue. We were concerned about this advice and contacted Ms. Ghalib for a consultation. She called us back within the hour and shared that if he left the country before resolving this he would be banned from the United States for 10 years due to unlawful presence for so long. We hired her and She promptly made an appointment with the Consulate. Although we all knew the chances of resolving this innocent mistake was slim, she was able to help him get everything straightened out. Our friend can now resume his studies and will have the opportunity to purse a career here. Ms Ghalib communicated efficiently, was knowledgeable and prepared, and mostly... succeeded in on our case. We highly recommend her.

Thank you for your dedication

For Mike it’s been 18 years. For me it was 12 years. For both of us, it’s been innumerable nights of not knowing if the family and life that we were working so hard to build would be wiped out by a judge’s single decision. All those days of stress, fear, and worry because our life depended on a stranger who did not know us. When we met Mr. Baxter in 2009, he was the first person to give us some kind of hope that we could win this case and not have our family not be torn apart. Hiba, from the beginning when you took over our case you’ve been very straightforward, dependable, and informative with us. Thank you for your many years of dedication to us. For keeping us on schedule with work permits. For being there and keeping us aware and ready as we could be for every court appearance. For the many lists of things we needed to do and have to be prepared court. For making sure we could properly present ourselves before the court. Thank you for your unwavering dedication and commitment to us. Thank you to you and your staff, we could never express how much we truly appreciate you. From the bottom of our hearts, Thank you, The Charles family

Not just a "Hired Gun"

Posted by

Ms. Ghalib took over our very complicated immigration case after our original lawyer left the firm. Needless to say, after a full year with different lawyer, we were concerned. Gratefully, we soon realized that Ms. Ghalib had not lost a step, quickly grasping the various intricacies of our case. Immigration cases can have long timelines, with little transparency, which created a lot of emotional issues for my wife and I to deal with separately from the case itself. Ms. Ghalib turned out not just to be a great lawyer but a great listener as well. She understood that in Immigration, sometimes just calming our fears was as important as dealing with USCIS. Hiba also felt very welcoming in discussing our case with us, while also giving us insights into the USCIS process. We never got the sense that we were 'bothering her', rather that we were a team. One last thing, Hiba came in totally prepared. Our interview was scheduled on the Tuesday after Labor Day, a weekend Ms. Ghalib was traveling away from her office. There was no time for her to cram. No time to "Get up to speed." on our case. But during our interview, Hiba had total control of details over the case's 8 years. Finally, while finishing up the interview the Immigration Officer was mentioning what the next steps in the case might be. Ms. Ghalib artfully guided the official through the final issues we faced, and diplomatically offered up a solution that not only helped us, but allowed the USCIS to gracefully end a complex case that was more than 8 years long. So.... "Is Hiba Ghalib be a good lawyer?" My Answer? "You would be lucky to have Hiba Ghalib represent you!"

The very best - Highly recommended ! 5 Stars ! Caring, hard-working, & committed to achieving the best result possible !

Hired Mrs. Hiba Ghalib for a very complicated immigration case that had been pending in one shape or form for over 11 years. A very challenging case due to its various complexities. Mrs. Ghalib worked hard, is very knowledgeable, and represented me in the best way possible. Even at times, when things seemed difficult, her kind words were encouraging, and kept me strong. Finally, i was able to adjust status in immigration court. I have another family member now as her client. And i would recommend her to anyone who wants a lawyer who is honest, trustworthy, and very hard-working. One of the very best lawyers around, And i pray for her continued success everyday.

Hiba was highly instrumental in helping me obtain permanent residence after a very difficult and complicated process. She was fully hands on and followed up, and showed up when she said she would. Without her knowledge, assistance,empathy and dedication, I don't know what my outcome would have been. I recommend her highly to anyone who needs legal immigration representation. She gets results!!! Thank you Hiba.

Amazing Lawyer and a Great Law Firm (AOS Approved)

Posted by

This is incredible! We were surprised our mom’s green card was approved in record time (within 2 months). Our sincere appreciation to Mr. Kuck and thanks to Hiba for being on top of everything. We want to acknowledge the thoroughness and professionalism of the legal services we received when working with Kuck Immigration and their very able staff. Hiba Ghalib in particular was one of the most helpful and bright immigration lawyers I have seen. She and her staff did a wonderful job from preparation to submission of the Green Card application. We appreciated Hiba’s professionalism and timeliness in handling this case. She was always prompt at returning calls, responding to email and available to fix potential problems and explain the ongoing process. All of our questions and concerns were answered very promptly, and our minds were put at ease each time. This support is so important when trying to navigate through the tedious and detailed application process. Hiba was absolutely Amazing and a joy to work with! Without reservation we would highly recommend Hiba Ghalib at Kuck Immigration to anybody looking for an effective representation on immigration issues. The peace of mind of knowing that everything was being done correctly was worth every penny. Once again THANK YOU Hiba for playing a big role in our journey :-)

Professional and courteous job!

Posted by

My mother in law was not able to maintain her original green card status due to having to be by the side of my late father in law overseas whose health was ailing. This complicated matters for my mother in law when she reapplied for a new green card since her old one was considered to be "abandoned"; however, Ms. Hiba Ghalib took on the case and handled it from A to Z in a very professional and courteous manner. She kept my wife and I up to date on the progress of each step and answered all of our questions in a timely fashion until my mother in law received her approval and new green card in the mail.
