I hired Mr. Shahzad for my citizenship case because a friend referred me to him after a good experience and I heard he won big immigration dispute cases. My friend's hopeless case of a 10 year bar was stuck in the Montreal consulate, but Raheel fought the case with the state department and the friend arrived in the US. Unfortunately I had a couple of issues on my record preventing me from getting citizenship... but with Raheel's expert knowledge on how to overcome these tough issues, I am finally well on my way on becoming a US citizen! I was very surprised to see that others have written such negative things about him on this website and seems unfair to say the least.. Anyhow... I found him to be extremely compassionate, knowledgeable, professional & diligent in his work on my case. I have heard similar good stories from my own friend and others who were also his clients. If you have a tough case, Raheel is the attorney you need to talk to!

Though my case was very complicated, Raheel almost performed magic through my divorce case in Dupage county court. I had come from Pakistan and was seeking a way to live in the US. With a contentious divorce back home, and a minor child with me, I really had little hope for a quick resolution. But somehow he worked out a solution and I was divorced in the US too and got custody of my child. I could not ask for more.

Mr. Raheel Shahzad was hired to represent me in immigration matters by Mr.Sohail Quddussi after Sohail was paid $3,500 as my attorney to represent me in deportation matters.I did not know that Mr Sohail was not an attorney until I made a report to tha ARDC.Neither Mr. Sohail or Mr. Raheel Shahzad represent me before the Justice department after the paper work was faxed to the number they gave me from Mc.Henry County jail, after the money was paid their phone numbers went dead for two weeks then i called again the person who answered the phone said he is Raheel Shahzad and he is representing me as my attorney (never met either one of these guys) they were given to me by my brother who lives in New Jersey that they have contacts in the system and i fell for it after living here for 24 years I am afraid to return to Jamaica. Mr. Shahzad was sent some documents from my previous attorney dated 2006 and told me he could get me a bond for $30.000 do i have the money he is the best in the business , I told him I ca'not get a bond I am at the mercy of the attorney general just go in to the justice department with my documents what i have been doing for the past 24 yrs.neither one of these attorneys went to the justice department.They state they never heard that I have an attorney .Sohail sent my fiancee a receipt for the money that was deposited in TCF bank to Sohail Quddussi 12/20/2012 so until this day they took my money and i just talk to then over the phone for about two hours.I turned to the ARDC in Chicago for help but it seem i did not represent myself satisfactorily so they told me to go through arbitration or small claims court. He told the ARDC that I am a fugitive from Immigration which I was (living here all these years undocumented) and I have a child that i do not take care of (I have receipts that i have been paying child support for my son for many years) This law firm took my money and did not represent me ) I have e-mails that he sent to my fiancee that he was in front of the judge arguing for my bond (lied)I had no court date .I filed a law suite against Mr.Raheel Shahzad in the courts of Cook County and the Sherriff went on two occasions and the office is a virtual at sixty $ each plus court cost I have no money to go back to my country if these attorneys are honest they would give me my money back Raheel told the ARDC if they say give it back he would.I am hoping someone reads this and can influence these attorneys to give me my money back or help serve the summon on Mr. Raheel Shahzad to come to court to answer to my grouse and give money money back I would be grateful I need that money to help with my reintegration to my country.Twice the sheriffs went to serve their office is virtual but when the ARDC send them a letter they responded .This is the most blatant disregard I have seen that a Law Firm done to a client the thought i would i would be deported. I need to argue this case in front of the judge. Please when they got the money and I called the # the answer in different names I have the names ,I have never met these attorneys my brother who lives in New Jersey gave them to me and now he don't want to return my calls knowing I am out of immigration jail and out of $3.500, listen to me someone.Thanks.
