To all Imigration needs give Attorney Momal a call first.

I contacted Attorney Momal regarding my K1 fiancee visa. Several issues I was concerned with my application and especially issues with more proof to the US embassy of my sustained income. Miss Momal was very accommodating and gave me many option to visit her office in Montebello, CA. After my firs...t office appointment she was able to point out very efficiently what is need and how to finalize my K1 application. Miss Momal also offered and gave me the option to wright an explanation letter to US Embassy but mention to me that I can formulate that letter myself as well. I will definitely return to her for more counsel if needed. Her first 60 min was at no charge ( as she claim in on her profile at Avvo.com )

Beauty itself does not compare to this gorgeous person.

Ms. Iqbal is the most beautiful person I have met. Once I saw her, I could not keep my eyes off her and I wish I could be with her for the rest of my life. She is the best lawyer a person could wish for and you can fully trust her decisions and thoughts. She keeps you intact with your case and leaves... you with the most refined and optimal answers to your question and will support you through your trials and court cases, etc... She is by far the nicest person I've met and aids with your problems in every way. Go to this lawyer if you want real progress!

Citizenship Aid

Ms Iqbal dealt my citizenship application in a very meticulous way and was always available to answer my queries. Thanks to her that today I am a proud USA citizen.

A super hard working Attorney

when I was dumped by a previous Lawyer, feel lost so I try to get a Lawyer online,nobody answer my call but Ms. Iqbal, and she was a God send, for 21/2 years my previous Lawyer was working in my deportation case(have green card since 1965) She could not do anything, so She dropped me, and 7 weeks aft...er Ms. Iqbal answer my call, the deportation case was dropped and I got my citizenship status (my deceased Father was a US citizen) so what do I think of Ms.Iqbal? She is a very hard working inteligente Lawyer, honest, keeps clients informed of what she is doing and going to do, and I highly recommend is services to everyone...Thank's Ms. Iqbal and the best of luck in your profession but you do not need luck you really know what you are doing can't say that for a lot of Lawyer's ,
