Thank you for your outstanding service
I recently had the pleasure of working with solicitors from UVS Law on my ILR Visa application, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the service provided. From the very beginning, they demonstrated exceptional professionalism and expertise in immigration law.
Both Maye and Rashid were incredibly thorough, ensuring that every detail of my application was meticulously prepared. They took the time to explain each step of the process, making sure I understood what was required and what to expect. This transparency and clear communication were immensely reassuring.
What truly stood out was their dedication and responsiveness. Maye and Rashid were always available to answer my questions, no matter how small, and provided timely updates on the progress of my application. This level of support made a potentially stressful process much more manageable.
Thanks to Maye and Rashid's hard work and expertise, all my visa applications were successful. I am extremely grateful for their assistance and would highly recommend UVS Law to anyone in need of immigration services.

Exceptional Service
I have known Rashid for over 10 years and I must say he is one of the most experienced professionals I have dealt with. He has been more of a brother to me. He has a strong command when it comes to immigration law, a thorough understanding of case law & its application and always puts his clients first. All my LTR extensions and ILR were secured by him and never once I had to chase him or had any issues. Ms Maye Nimah is one of the most competent and compassionate immigration professionals in UVS Law. My ILR application had a Family Law dimension to it and Maye went above and beyond to make sure everything was professionally drafted and submitted on time. Her knowledge is not just limited to immigration law as she has an in depth understanding of how the law works in other areas. I can’t thank her enough for the support she gave. UVS law is not just about submitting immigration applications, they take a very friendly approach making their clients feel at ease. 10 stars for them instead of 5. If you want things to be done timely without any hassle and professionally then you need to contact Maye & Rashid

Professional services
When I was first told about UVS Law by Ibrahim and he said they are very good despite he never met them. He said of his optimistic about their services with reference to other people.
I agreed and I was assigned with Maye to be my caseworker supervised by Mr Rashid.
We started the process and my confidence started to build up with the firm due to the professionalism of Maye guidance. She promised to lead me to a successful outcome and requested all that was needed to submit my marriage application to the Home Office. I was expected to wait for 3 months before hearing from them but to my surprise only 6 months to receive my positive decision.
This was all because of Maye and Mr Rashid professional knowledge. I can tell anyone not to hesitate dealing with them particularly when Maye is your caseworker. She has a wealth of knowledge in dealing with people and I can’t stop singing her praise.
The firm is very good and deserves all praises
May Allah bless you and your family Maye I wish you nothing but the best of luck with good health
