I’m approved!!!!
I am an American citizen who married a British citizen in 2021. We met in 2018 and went back and forth for years. We had two little girls since 2021 and decided we wanted to live in the Uk and raise our girls. We contacted UVS law firm in hopes of me being able to stay with my British husband and dual nationality children. Maye Nimah and Rashid were amazing and handled everything for us taking all the stress away. Any questions I had were answered the moment I asked. I highly recommend them to take on your case. Very professional and the most kind I’ve worked with. Thank you both for keeping my family together I’m forever grateful.

P. S. My husband got his Visa!

Review of Alexandra, Rashid
I cannot recommend Alexandra highly enough. Before working with her, I had faced significant challenges with a previous lawyer, leaving me anxious and uncertain about my visa application. However, meeting Alexandra completely changed everything for me.
From the very beginning, she went above and beyond to provide exceptional support. No matter how small my questions or concerns were, she was always there to guide me with patience and clarity. Her dedication went far beyond professional obligations—it was clear she genuinely cared about helping me succeed.
In a field where such genuine commitment is rare, Alexandra truly stands out. Her support felt like a beacon of hope during one of the most stressful periods of my life. Thanks to her expertise and kindness, I not only received the help I needed but also felt reassured and supported every step of the way.
If you are looking for someone who will treat your case with the utmost professionalism, compassion, and care, I wholeheartedly recommend Alexandra. She has made a lasting impact on my life, and I will forever be grateful for her help. Thank you so much, Alexandra 🤍🤍
I am also incredibly grateful for the guidance and support I received from Rashid. During a very challenging and uncertain time, Rashid provided me with clear, objective advice that helped me see my situation more clearly.
What stood out the most was his ability to break down complex issues and offer practical steps for moving forward. His professionalism and calm demeanor gave me the confidence I needed to tackle the challenges ahead.
Thanks to Rashid, I was able to approach my situation with a renewed sense of direction and clarity. His support was invaluable, and I truly appreciate the care and effort he put into helping me. I would highly recommend Rashid to anyone seeking expert legal advice and a lawyer who genuinely cares about their clients.
