2 months agoWe are extremely grateful to have found Haq Law. In navigating the immigration system mam Maliha calmly guided us through the whole process. Great firm very professional, smart and efficient. I would without a doubt recommend Mam Maliha and associates to everyone. She fought for us until the case was done, she was there for us until the last minute. I can honestly say Haq law provides the best and most professional services in the whole of California, I would have given 10 stars if it was possible on the scale because even 5 stars are not enough. Thank you, Mam, for everything.

She has in-depth knowledge and experience of an immigration law and ability to navigate complex issues. She and her team kept me informed throughout the process and were very quick in their responsiveness. Maleeha has gone above and beyond for preparing and compiling all the relevant documents presented to USCIS related to my case. Thanks to Maleeha’s hard work and dedication, my application was approved smoothly, and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of immigration assistance.
