Life-changing outcome!

5

I can't thank Zafar and Ikra enough for their help with my complex visa application. When my visa was about to expire in a few days, I had a free consultation with Zafar, where I explained my situation, and he reassured me that they would do their best for a positive outcome. I provided all the necessary documents, and Zafar and Ikra wrote a strong, flawless cover letter and submitted my application on my behalf. My application took several months, and they kept me updated with the latest correspondence from the Home Office. Zafar advised me to be patient and answered all my questions, including those about my right to work while waiting for a decision. Finally, the Home Office requested additional documents, which they submitted on my behalf, and shortly after, I received a positive decision. I hope everyone in a similar situation can experience the joy of such great news. Thank you, Zafar and Ikra, for your support from beginning to end for this life-changing outcome!

A HIDDEN JEM

5

Hello there!! My Name Intekhab Alam and I'm from luton beds. I was looking for a good reliable immigration solicitor to apply for my Naturalisation application for British citizenship. I'm a local fella living in Luton for long long time but I never applied for the British citizenship.I used to go Tesco express in dunstable road quite a lot and I used to pass and cross greystone Solicitors. So when
i decided that I'll apply for my Naturalisation for British citizenship I thought I should give them a go.as soon as I went to the office of greystone Solicitors I met this gentleman Mr. Safer Iqbal. First of all I told him I didn't make any appointments and I came here to discuss about my British citizenship application. He was very calm and composed while I was telling him about my application and about my requirements. He was very helpful and he was so knowledgeable and very aware. I was so naive and I never dealt with citizenship application before so obviously it was A massive learning process for me. I was really impressed. Me and Mr.Iqbal had a preliminary discussions about my citizenship application and he introduced one of his colleague Zaha Ahmed and Zaha Ahmed helped me throughout the whole application process. She is maybe looks tiny a bit but the way she handled my application it was simply outstanding, brilliant, unprecedented. She is a hidden jem. All of the applicants having different problems and different issues and I believe handelling the situation lawfully is the key of a successful application. I would like to refer greystone Solicitors to everyone who is looking for any immigration solicitors. I had a great experience with greystone Solicitors and my application has been successful with in 90 days.
With my humble regards and Thank you very much to all of you.
Intekhab Alam.
Luton ,beds.

Greystone Solicitors are, by far, the best solicitors you can get! Their professionalism and integrity is unmatched by any other firm. I received consistent excellent service from the start and am so grateful that finally, I have received positive news my application. Absolutely brilliant! I am thankful to Mr Zafar for his wise counsel and clear advice and to Ikra who took on my case.

Greystone solicitors dealt with my parents immigration matter. I must say they are a great team lead by Zafar and supported by Syeda and Ikra.

They were very thorough, persistent, fair and transparent. Their attention to detail was phenomenal. I must say, “We had the best possible solicitor” to fight our case and its because of them we are able to enjoy the family life together with my parents otherwise it would have been very difficult for us.

The professional support they provided us was above and beyond anything we had previously received. Our entire family is grateful to the dynamic, dedicated and highly professional Gresytone team.

Outstanding Service !!!

5

I had my first case with Zafar Iqbal which was considered to be a thorough and tough case. Initially I like Mr. Zafar’s first interaction with me and his demeanour on our first meeting was facts and not fantasies. He never raised my hopes and we only worked with facts and taking every outcome as a possibility. My case was escalated to the court and Mr. Zafar preparation was perfect as he was facing the opposition with strong answers. Mr. Zafar always had time for friendly advice on other cases and he made sure my ideas were also shown in the answers. His hard work and dedication paid at the end and we won the case. Overall, good service and good time spent. Additionally, thanks Syeda Zaman for keeping me up-to dated and discussing the case in detail with me.

I had an outstanding experience with Greystone Solicitors for immigration and asylum matters, and I wholeheartedly recommend their services. They are undeniably one of the best in Luton, and I attribute a significant part of their success to Mr. Zafar Iqbal and Julfa Begum.

We have been to several other solicitors across Luton previously, however there is no other firm of solicitors like Greystone Solicitors - the quality of service provided by them was excellent. I was represented by Zafar at the hearing and my appeal was allowed. I would highly recommend the firm!
