Effortless

2 years ago I started the process of getting my wife a Visa. I consulted Omar and felt assured that he would pay attention to detail. We only met 3 times and the process was effortless. He was precise with giving me directions on the procedure. I recommend him for fast and efficient procedure towards... getting your Visa. Thanks Again Omar. Jeethna too.

Best lawyer around

He is the best lawyer around for any complicated case. My life was in chaos for 3 years going from one bad lawyer after another. Finally, I found Omar. He resolved my case within a year. Omobolaji

...

Omar procured a 10 year green card for me, even though I felt like I had no chance, as I had to file to remove conditions as an individual. He accompanied me to the interview, made sure I was prepared, and I was approved on the spot. I would recommend Khan Nayyar and their immigration team 200%. I... could not be more thankful and more grateful. They were by my side at each and every step and were compassionate, honest, truthful, knowledgeable, zealous, and the experience was better than anything I could have imagined. I have used used another attorney in the past, and the experience was night and day. I know I made the right choice.

Consultation

I had a consultation with the attorneys at Khan Nayyar Law.  They are excellent and provided me the honest legal advice I needed to help resolve my situation.  I would definitely recommend them to anyone.

Insightful and informative!

I recently experienced a tragic situation. Mr. Khan was very caring and thoughtful of what I was experiencing. He took an hour out of his Sunday to speak with me. If I ever have another legal question, he will be the first person I call.

"I endorse Omar without reservation. In addition to a sharp legal mind and extraordinary critical thinking skills, he has a gentle, empathetic approach for those seeking his input. Sometimes it is difficult for a lawyer to straighten out a client or questioner without seeming a little snippy. Omar never does that. He exemplifies the gentlemanly practice of law that Abraham Lincoln Lionized all those years ago."
