After this, I was assigned to another attorney within the firm. The representation itself was fine, but I did feel that there was unneeded back-and-forth at times, with each message being billed at a rate of 6 minutes, it all adds up. The tipping point was when I emailed asking if we could reach out to the other party's representation and also asked if there were any strategies to move toward a resolution. I received a response stating "It is good to hear from you. It probably makes sense for you to reach out to [other party regarding my question] and the need to reach a resolution. If you are able to reach an agreement, then we can help you to memorialize its terms." I was surprised when I was charged for this, and when I asked if I was being charged, I was ignored. Finally, when I asked to end my relationship with the firm and requested a refund of my retainer, the amount billed for the aforementioned email response was deducted. While it was only ~$40, my question was not even answered. I was offered a 15 minute consultation at a later time, but since I'm no longer a client, asked if that was something I would even be able to use. A week later and I have not received a response. I would be cautious of this firm if your situation is not cut and dry and to whom you are assigned. In my experience, Soo Keithley is fantastic, but others may leave you wanting for more.

Let's just say I have experience now with other divorce attorneys in the area, and it's worth your time to keep looking because you can do much better. A lot of the other posters' negative experiences with Soo and her firm are very familiar and similar to my own. In my opinion, professionalism is a huge issue with this firm. Ultimately and I cannot emphasize this enough -- this firm became just as, if not more, stressful to deal with than the high conflict divorce I was embroiled in. And that is not a feeling you want with your attorney who is supposed to advocate for your interests.

Mina Haque is an awesome attorney who really cares and gets results for her clients! Even in this…read moreatmosphere of heightened scrutiny of immigration applications, my wife's marriage-based permanent residency was granted less than five months after we applied. Mina and her paralegal Keisha were so helpful in guiding us through completion of all the forms we needed to file, and Mina was so helpful during the interview with the USCIS officer. The USCIS officer granted my wife permanent residency on the spot! This was in no small part due to Mina's preparing us for interview questions and assistance during the interview, as well as the strength of the application that she advised us on. She saw that my wife will make a great American permanent resident and Citizen, and gave invaluable advice on how to communicate this to USCIS. My wife and I would give her 10 stars if we could!

Mohaimina who also goes by Nina was generous to share general information freely regarding the immigration case I called about. Her consultation rate is very reasonable compared to other law firms and she provides sessions in both DC & VA. By no means did I feel obliged to pay for the general information Nina provided and she was also very clear regarding which services require a session and fee. She is knowledgeable and I think she strives to provide bona fide information to her clients. I wish her all the best and surely recommend her to anyone with an immigration case.

I normally do not leave reviews, but my experience with this attorney was extremely disappointing…read moreand financially draining. I hired her in September before reporting to prison to pursue an ineffective assistance of counsel claim against my previous attorney. During our consultation, she strongly criticized my former attorney, told me he did a terrible job, and even stated that the judge in my case was racist and that she planned to request that the judge be recused. Based on those conversations, I trusted her and paid an initial $15,000 retainer. Unfortunately, months went by and nothing meaningful appeared to happen on my case. No filings were made, no clear strategy was communicated, and I was left constantly trying to get updates on next steps. Then, after about four months, when I started asking questions, I was told I needed to pay another $15,000, which I did because I believed my case was still being worked on and time was critical. Then, only about two months before my appeal opportunity expired, I received another request for an additional $30,000. At that point, I declined. Shortly afterward, she withdrew from my case entirely and left me without representation during a critical period. My advice to anyone considering hiring any attorney is to carefully read the retainer agreement line by line and make sure every promise, strategy, or expectation discussed during consultations is clearly written into the agreement before paying large retainers. In my experience, the retainer was broad and vague and did not clearly reflect many of the things discussed during our conversations. I also strongly encourage people to do extensive research, ask detailed questions about billing practices, timelines, deliverables, and communication expectations upfront before making a hiring decision. In my personal experience, a substantial amount of money was paid with little to no meaningful progress made on my case.
