Trustworthy honest attorney with integrity at her very core

Maliha represented me in a very contentious divorce which lasted 2 ½ years. At first, I didn't know whether she had the expertise to tackle the complexity of my case given her young age, however, she quickly gained my trust. Maliha took the necessary time to familiarize herself with each aspect... of my divorce focusing on every important detail. She was extremely organized and always well prepared. Her demeanor in court was always professional, humble, and respectful. She knew when to speak and when to be silent. When the opposing counsel used theatrics to make up for their lack of substance and lack of preparation, Maliha distinguished herself by maintaining her composure, being calm and collected before the judge. When it was time to push back, she did so boldly and successfully! I attribute this boldness to the confidence gained by having a very good understanding of the legal implication of my case and this success to a well calculated, pre-planned strategy. Through this lengthy and emotionally draining divorce, Maliha’s inner qualities became very evident. Her honesty was genuine, and her character woven in integrity. Having been blessed with a brilliant mind, I often told Maliha (still believe this) that she’s too smart to be a divorce attorney :-). So glad she chose this profession and, I’m beyond grateful to have been represented by Maliha.

Very sweet & helpful

I do not live in the counties serviced by Maliha Siddiqui, however, that did not stop her from reaching out to help guide on where to look for a lawyer who can help in the county I live in. Maliha is sweet, kind, and hardworking. She will definitely get the job done for those who retain her as their ...lawyer.

Maliha is the most hard working, trustworthy and honest attorney that I have had the pleasure to retain. She knows the law and gives it to you straight. She alone has straightened out a complete mess of a support case of mine and allowed me to move on with my life.

Exceptional Service

Maliha made a not so pleasant experience (divorce), painless. She was referred to me by another attorney. During my consult call, I decided to hire her. She made me feel very comfortable in a less than joyous process. She guided me through the process and the divorce went through quickly and efficien...tly.
