Service review

We used Ellisons for immigration advice in obtaining a skilled worker visa for a key member of our team.
We found the service highly professional with Sohan clearly providing expert advise throughout the process and ensuring that we remained on track. He was extremely kind and considerate, always ensuring we understood the next steps and all implications.
We would use him again for immigration advice.

A Smooth and Informative Sponsorship Experience with Sohan Sidhu

5

I recently went through the process of becoming a sponsor, and I must say, the experience was incredibly smooth thanks to Sohan Sidhu and his team. Sohan's extensive knowledge of the process was evident from the start. He kept me informed every step of the way, providing clear and concise updates on the progress.

One of the aspects I appreciated most was Sohan's proactive approach to handling all the necessary paperwork. He ensured everything was completed in a timely manner, relieving me of much stress and anxiety. This allowed me to focus on other aspects of the process without worrying about deadlines or potential delays.

Beyond the efficient handling, the experience also proved to be highly educational. Sohan 's expertise and guidance provided me with valuable insights into the sponsorship process, empowering me with a greater understanding of the complexities involved.

I am truly grateful for the positive experience I had with Sohan Sidhu and his team. Their professionalism, knowledge, and commitment made the entire process stress-free and ultimately successful. I highly recommend Sohan to anyone looking for assistance with sponsorship matters.

Spousal Visa Application

5

Sohan Sidhu provided great wisdom and advice, based upon lots of experience, in guiding me through a somewhat complicated application for my visa to join my British wife in the United Kingdom. Sohan addressed some thorny issues that I had created myself and he was able to steer me around those problems and obtain the visa in less time than he had expected.

I am a retired U.S. lawyer and so I was impressed by Sohan's clear instructions and communications, as well as his hands-on approach when I was filing the application and making the various related payments. I was very grateful for his guiding me through the tricky process.

We would like to pass our thanks to immigration lawyer Sohan Sidhu. Sohan oversaw the visa application for our daughter-in-law, a US resident to come live with our son in the UK. Sohan was incredibly thorough in what was required, he clearly knows how the Home Office works and he ensured every necessary document was included resulting in a 400 page bundle being submitted. Pretty certain if we had tried this ourselves the application would have been rejected, the process appears to be very tick box and depends on what side of the bed an immigration officer gets out of that morning. Sohan ensured we had every base covered and we shall be eternally grateful to him for enabling us to be with our kids and watch them grow and develop. Not often I want to hug a lawyer..x
