November 30, 2020 Some time ago three friends of mine asked me to help them find an appropriate attorney and law firm, which could prepare, and oversee, the process of completing and filing certain immigration documentation required of them. When we interviewed Ms. Maleeha Haq, and her staff as...sistant Gabriella, of Haq Law I relaxed because I knew we had been successful in our search for the best legal team. In our first meeting Ms. Haq examined my friends' current documents, discussed a general plan to complete the documentation process, gave a range of cost estimates for each segment of the process, and prepared a very fair contract for my friends. And of course, what followed was a very professional preparation and filing of the required documents, then amended documentation and filing for one participant, and finally approval for all three of my friends. The legal team at Haq Law performed admirably so that my friends can enjoy their productive lives! Bennett Please perform your own due diligence examinations before engaging any law firm, as we did with Haq Law.

Highly Experienced

I would highly recommend her. She is very experienced. Highly responsible. I would go as far to say with Ms. Haq 99% of your issues are solved. I guess 1% depends on how you present yourself. Second to none. It was very easy working with her, very detailed and goes out of the way to help her clients....

Very professional and supportive

We came across Maleeha's law firm through LinkedIn and read her previous clients' positive reviews. Professionally, Maleeha is an expert when it comes to immigration and citizenship issues. She and her team know how the system works, they save you a lot of time in filling forms, sending them, hel...ping you gather all the right files. On a personal level, Maleeha has been patient, extremely supportive and very responsive to all our questions and worries we had. It was a long and hard process and she's been there for us all along. I can't recommend her enough.

The Best Lawyer I Ever Met

Ms. Haq is very professional and courteous. She gave me consultation/advice on behalf of my brother who has stage 4 bladder cancer, regarding how to move forward with his immigration case. She is a blessing. I highly reccomend her services.
