Very professional and helpful

I hired Ms Maleeha Haq as my immigration lawyer. She is very familiar and professional with every document I need to provide and she gives very helpful suggestions for my immigration case. She did prepare all my paper works in a very short amount of time and she always gave me feedback about my case ...when she had update. She is very punctual with my appointment in person and on the phone. She is easy to talk to and she makes everything easy for me to understand. She also gives useful advises for my interview which is very easy and successful. I got approval immediately. I will definitely recommend her immigration services to anybody.

Excellent Performance

Working with Maleeha Haq as one of her client, she offered an excellent support to me and was always professional and detailed in her work, focusing on achieving the best result for the client. Maleeha is reliable, dedicated and eternally upbeat. Her ability to calm angry or frustrated clients is unp...aralleled, and it is because of her excellence in this area. She has my highest recommendation, and I am happy to furnish more details if anyone like additional information.

The best ever

I went to Maleeha Haq to apply for greencard, i definitely recommend her to everyone, she is so nice, friendly, understanding & on top of things.. There was never a time when i called her & she didn't answer or got back immediately to me, she is always comforting my worries, nothing she said didn't ...happen, the process went so smothely, & she was always there for me. She is more than a lawyer, she is a sister.. U can rely on her & she'll never let u down. She is seriously the best.. Nothing i say is ever enough for her, i can't thank her enough (", )

Honest, Excellnet attitude with a very good time responce

I hired Mrs. Haq to follow up with immigration after my wife's' file got stuck between USCIS and NVC. She did a great job contacting the immigration and getting answers. She was honest and told me from the beginning what she can do and what she can't. After things solved and went through smoothly s...he kept her name on the record just to make thing easier even I didn't ask her for that.
