Testimonials
Read what Arab American families in Rockville say about our Arabic-speaking family law attorneys.
“My divorce involved a mahr agreement and property in Lebanon. Maryland law is complicated — the court can't just transfer property, they use monetary awards. My lawyer understood both the Islamic contract and Maryland's system and got me a fair settlement. I could discuss everything in Arabic.”

“My ex tried to get full custody in Montgomery County by claiming I wasn't a fit mother. My lawyer gathered character witnesses from our community and got the judge to enforce my mahr as a separate contract. I won primary custody and my children are stable. She understood Iraqi family dynamics and spoke Arabic through everything.”

“I lost my job at a warehouse and couldn't keep up with child support payments. My ex wanted me held in contempt. My lawyer filed for modification in Baltimore City court and got a fair recalculation based on my actual income. He spoke Arabic and treated me with dignity when I felt at my lowest.”
