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 )
