I want to thank Mr Wahab for everything that he has done for me in my divorce matter and I am happy that I got the custody of my child.
We have engaged Mr Abdul Wahab l.R.B.LAW LLP for our Son’s visa matters.
Mr Abdul Wahab I.R.B. LAW LLP did explain to us the terms and conditions for the above matter with regards to ICA.
He was also professional and pleasant in attending to us.
Although the matter is still in progress with ICA, we would like to thank Mr Abdul Wahab I.R.B. LAW LLP and his staff for all the help and guidance rendered.
We hope Mr Abdul Wahab I.R.B LAW LLP and staff will still be assisting us in securing a Long Term Visa for our Son.
Thank you.
I was at desperate times seeking for a good lawyer, one who could fully understand what I really need in this legal assistance to my case. I had seek various advise until I have met Abdul Wahab who is a committed and professional lawyer with human touch.
The consultancy was direct to the point, he could understand what did I really needed, he listens and offered professional advise instead of just working to instructions. He understands the anxiety of his client, replies to my multiple doubts and follows-up on case progression personally, which made me felt relief engaging him as my representing lawyer. The case is now closed with the best desired outcome. Thank You.
