I would give them no stars
Please please don’t use this company if you don’t want to lose your money. Once they take your money they don’t even bother to send you an email. I promise you will end up calling them begging for either a refund or doing the service you paid for. I paid them to make a marriage visa application last year since then I have been struggling to talk to someone about my case but all I hear from the receptionist is someone will call you back but nobody will. Please don’t let them steal your money!!! I am going to make them to pay for my wasted money and time!!! I’m gonna leave my number so if anyone else has the same experience can call me to make them pay for what they do to innocent people!!!!

Do not trust this company
Do not trust this company. When I have enquired, I received a call within minutes. Persuaded to use their services and paid the cost. Since then received mostly generic correspondence to sign documents and send it back to allocated case worker. I did it, no reply no update what is happening, called office left voicemail, no-one got back to me, send several e-mails no replies. Called HO again being told I need to contact the complaint department only by e-mail. What could be a good and professional business relationship turned into sour experience. There are many other companies with even more competitive rates then this one. You might think twice before you sign up and ended up in long winded careless process like mine. Theese people only care up to the moment they take money from you. Agony is when you call them and they put you on hold, background message repeating trust, professionalism you can really on us and so on....... I wonder why.....

ABSOLUTELY APPALLING SERVICE.
This firm is a scam!!!! DO NOT ENGAGE. You will be (as I was) utterly appalled at the complete lack of integrity, customer service, professionalism and knowledge of these charlatans. We have begun the complaints process through their site but as we don’t expect them to actually respond in an honest way, we have also sought advice and guidance from the legal ombudsman. They reply to their poor reviews online by saying they can’t contact you to make amends, or that they are unable to find your case - DO NOT BE MISLEAD; I have literally sent least 15 emails and twice that in unreturned calls trying to resolve this issue. Please don’t waste your hard earned dollars. I can not believe how hard I was conned. I was dealing with Nadeem from the Manchester Office but have since learned, they all work from home. It is not the firm they lead you to believe. If you’ve read this and still choose to engage then as your lawyers, you will be as disgusted as I am.

Was with Alison law for 4 years as my case had been dragged on for that long, they helped me every step of the way and managed to keep me out of jail which wasn’t looking likely. Would highly recommend Alison law to anyone who needs help in the legal department. Thank you Alison law and hopefully I won’t be needed you again.

**Please read carefully before you decide to proceed with this firm (for your own sanity)**
In a nutshell, Alison Law Bradford are one of the worst claims management company out there. If I wasn't so angry right now I would actually laugh at how these people are allowed to operate. All the horror stories you hear about certain claims' companys regarding misconduct, mishandling, lack of reliability and dishonesty- you will find embedded within this firm and its people. For this reason, I have reported them to the Financial Conduct Authority.
I made the mistake of allowing them to deal with my claim and my purpose for leaving a review is so that nobody makes the same mistake or falls for the glowing reviews. Please look carefully as they are clearly fake and left by friends and family of those who work here.
In Oct 2020, I was involved in a no-fault car accident. This is my first accident since I passed my test 7 years ago and I am not prepared to accept any form of liability. I provided my statement, photographs and details of the independent witness and did this promptly and efficiently with a paper trail to prove it. Because I know how slow they are, I even drove my (damaged) vehicle to them (in Bradford) for the engineer to inspect for his report. I was told this would be done in a few days and it has now been 6 months. This matter has still not been resolved and that is simply because Alison Law can't be bothered- or they may have settled it behind my back and are avoiding my calls.
The following are examples of issues I faced with specific examples:
- Lack of integrity and unproffesionalism (they lie to you and tell you they will do something and months later still don't do it).
- When they are questioned, they blame everything on Covid. I understand things will move slower, but as proffesionals you are meant to get your job done regardless.
-Unorganised (nobody knows what is going on and everytime you speak with them, you will end up doing their job.
-They don't answer calls and when they do they return them after 2 weeks
- You have to 'pester' them and get on their backs for them to do the basics.
- Communication is poor meaning everytime you speak with them you find out somebody new is dealing with your issue.
-Staff turnover is high and everybody in this place seems to (conveniently) get sick and disappear every few weeks if you raise an issue.
-Unqualified people (I have a feeling this a family/friends set up where they just give anybody the job)
The stress and anxiety this place has caused me is uncalled for. Do yourself a favour and go with a reputable firm. I sincerely regret my mistake and wish I had never bothered with this firm.

My experience is really bad, I don’t want to blame all company as lots of staff are great, Zoe was really nice when I decide to use this company. But the lawyer on my case is not something I expected. I apply for citizenship with indefinite leave and I was send papers for spouse visa. I have asked to be send the correct papers , no answer. I have all papers needed but the lawyer is not interested. So I will ask for refund if my money as I work hard , or someone else allocated to my case. It’s sad to give such a bad review for one person.

Very bad experience. I will never recommend the solicitor who dealt my case. Poor customer service, no legal advise or help apart from very generic solicitor letter. Solicitor was not even replying to my several emails or several call. Took 4 months to submit the application.
