Rewriting search button from web forms application to mvc4 - asp.net-mvc-4

Question

I have a web forms application with a service reference
and I need to rewrite only the front-end of it in mvc4
I'm having trouble with search button (still new to programming)
this is the code of it in web forms
private void btnSearch_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
ClearViewers();
btnSearch.Enabled = false;
btnSyncronise.Enabled = false;
PersonalInformation localInfo = null;
PersonInfo[] registryInfo = null;
needsUpdate = false;
Cursor = Cursors.WaitCursor;
try
{
if ((String.IsNullOrEmpty(txtPersonalNumber.Text)) || (txtPersonalNumber.Text.Length != 11) || (Regex.Match(txtPersonalNumber.Text, "^\\d{11}$").Success == false))
{
MessageBox.Show(#"blabla" + Environment.NewLine + #"blablabla" + Environment.NewLine + #"blabla", #"blabla", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Error);
return;
}
using (PersonalInfoServiceClient proxy = new PersonalInfoServiceClient())
{
try
{
localInfo = proxy.GetLocalInfoForPerson(txtPersonalNumber.Text.Trim());
if (localInfo != null)
{
ssStatusLocal.ForeColor = Color.Green;
ssStatusLocal.Text = #"found personal ID";
lblFirstName.Text = localInfo.FirstName;

lblStatus.Text = #"active";
else if (localInfo.PersonStatus == PersonStatus.Rejected)
lblStatus.Text = #"passive";
else if (localInfo.PersonStatus == PersonStatus.Dead)
lblStatus.Text = #"dead";
else
lblStatus.Text = #"unknown";
lblSex.Text = (Convert.ToInt32(localInfo.Sex) == 1) ? #"male" : #"female";
lblAddress.Text = localInfo.Address;
lbBirthPlace.Text = localInfo.BirthPlace;
lbCitizenShip.Text = (string.IsNullOrEmpty(localInfo.CitizenShip) && string.IsNullOrEmpty(localInfo.CitizenShipCode)) ? localInfo.CitizenShip : localInfo.CitizenShip + " / " + localInfo.CitizenShipCode;
lbDoubleCitizenShip.Text = (string.IsNullOrEmpty(localInfo.DoubleCitizenShip) && string.IsNullOrEmpty(localInfo.DoubleCitizenShipCode)) ? localInfo.DoubleCitizenShip : localInfo.DoubleCitizenShip + " / " + localInfo.DoubleCitizenShipCode;
lblRegion.Text = localInfo.RegionName;
if (localInfo.Photo != null)

finally

how do you write this in controller?
the controller can't find labels, there is no picturebox
I have no idea how to get data via service reference
could you help ?
