From start to finish I have nothing but good things to say about this firm! I had an emergency court hearing with only a few days of them to read the bundle they was fully prepared. They have been easy to contact and consistent throughout. Very professional.

They are frauds.

I wrote to Duncan lewis at there website many occassion seeking a lawyer as they were recommended. They never replied. I then phoned at luton place they register my details but never actually give me a lawyer .I think they are unpleasant and lose client's details and don't really aim to satisfy their clients , sometimes I wonder if they are a fraud since they get recommended but don't even reply or give a solicitor to a client.

Her support through out my Trafficking matters has given me confidence to face any challenges that I may face, she listened and encouraged me to keep fighting and today all her hard work has paid off. It’s sure and honour knowing you. Thank you so much, you are a star.

The best service

I had the absolute pleasure of having Ekanem Umoh, work on my application and I can confidently say she’s one of the best solicitors out there. From start to finish, she was patient, supportive, and incredibly understanding. She provided excellent advice and always knew how to calm me down when I was overthinking or feeling overwhelmed.

Ekenem went above and beyond, giving 110% throughout my entire application process. She truly empathized with my situation while maintaining professionalism, explaining everything clearly and sticking to the facts. Her ability to balance compassion and honesty was so reassuring, especially during such a stressful time in my life.

My case was particularly challenging as I was under immense pressure, wanting to get married but waiting on a response from the Home Office. The entire process took nearly two years, and during that time, I genuinely don’t think I could have asked for anyone better in my corner. Ekenem delivered results while also providing much-needed emotional support.

She wasn’t just my solicitor—she was a person who truly cared. She advised me with integrity, suggesting practical steps like reaching out to my MP or waiting strategically, always with my best interests at heart. Her high emotional intelligence made such a difference; she made me feel heard, understood, and cared for in a way that goes far beyond just doing a job.

Ekenem is approachable, easy to talk to, and extremely dedicated. She treats you as a human being, not just another client. Having someone like her in your corner is truly a blessing, especially when dealing with sensitive and emotional situations.

What’s more, her track record speaks for itself. Every member of my family who has worked with her has had positive outcomes, and my own experience was no different. While nothing is ever guaranteed, I can say with confidence that you’re in safe hands with her.

If you’re looking for someone who will fight for you, support you, and deliver results, Ekanem Umoh is the one to go to. She’s exceptional at what she does, and I can’t recommend her highly enough.
