    After coming out of a terrible marriage, I needed to get my financial break from my ex. I came across OTS Solicitors and spoke to a solicitor name Sharmin Behzad who supported me throughout the process. What seems like a never ending process, she was able to give me reassurance and guidance of what was happening every step of the way. I am so happy that I came across her firm and would strongly recommend her to anyone who's looking to get their financial sorted after the divorce. Thank you very much Behzad.

    My partner and I use OTS at the end of last year for spousal visa application. From start to finish the whole process took less than three months and my partner was issued his visa just 2 days after his biometrics appointment. Our solicitor was Mr Hans, he is an exceptional solicitor and the process couldn’t have gone better, he was very clear about what we needed to do and what to expect and we couldn’t believe how quick the turn around was. Thanks to Hans it was smooth and straightforward. We were directed to Hans by a family friend and feel incredibly lucky to have been. We definitely recommend Hans and OTS to those applying to spousal visas and couldn’t imagine using anyone else.

    Selected OTS for an immigration consultancy based on strong Google reviews. This was a mistake. I plan to return to the UK with my non-British wife. The consultancy was fine, but there were a couple of points the solicitor needed to double check and promised to follow up on email. Eight days later, and we haven't heard anything from them. Have tried emailing them myself and no response so far. I'd be very cautious booking a consultation with OTS. We've wasted £100 and now have no way to proceed.

    I cannot sing the praises of Maryem Ahmed and the Immigration Team at OTS Solicitors enough! We all know that renewing your Visa is a minefield, filled with enough red tape to circumnavigate the Globe! Maryem was an absolute pleasure, metaphorically holding my hand, prompting me, guiding me and supporting me through the whole process. I would not hesitate to recommend her and the Team to anyone looking for professional, friendly and efficient service, thank you one and all!

    I'm glad I chose OTS Solicitors to help me with my citizenship application. Sanae delivered exceptional service and guided me throughout the process, making sure my application was completely neat. I would highly recommend OTS because they deliver and are super professional! Thank you!

    We used OTS solicitors for the first time knowing our spouse visa application would be complicated due to the paperwork requirements. We had the privilege of working with Sanae and despite the lack of faith we had in obtaining the visa, we managed to receive it much to our surprise. During the process Sanae was very patient, helpful and kept us updated. I have recommended Sanae to all my family and freinds and would highly recommend OTS to anyone who needs help.

    We got advice for our partner application, as well as advice when they asked for very confusing further documentation evidence. We worked with Dhaya. She was absolutely wonderful and the visa was successful! We will definitely use this firm again if we need to, and I highly recommend them.

    We engaged OTS Solicitors for a UK visit visa for my non-British spouse; this was a complex matter due to previous issues which had arisen during Covid in regards to immigration history. Sanae Sahebjalal at OTS was our solicitor and we have been overwhelmingly impressed with her handling of the matter. She was clear, organized and very well informed from beginning consultation to the end. We felt we were in very capable hands during the process; Sanae provided timely information and options to us and importantly was transparent with all her advice. What was clear was that Sanae and OTS have the best interests of their clients as priority and are not only commercially driven like other legal firms can be. We received the UK visit visa today and any previous issues have been rectified and cleared as a result due to how well Sanae and OTS handled our case. We recommend them to anyone seeking the best-in-class legal service for UK immigration and we would not hesitate to engage them again. Thank you!

    I had a one hour consultation with Hans at OTS Solicitors to go through my application for Indefinite Leave to Remain. I had drafted my application already and gathered evidence and wanted a lawyer to review my answers and documents. Hans was very thorough and gave excellent practical advice for my application, and the one hour consultation was exactly what I needed. Would recommended.

    I had a bad experience with OTS. I paid for a meeting with solicitor to explain simple question about my son’s citizenship. He told me I had to apply, I then paid 1000+ and spent time submitting the application, to then get it rejected because he already was a citizen. Cannot recommend these solicitors and the one I spoke to was also rude on the phone!

    I had the pleasure of working with the lovely Sanae. To give some background of my situation, I was dealing with a student route visa last year (2022) from the US. Delays hit my application due to multiple reasons; some involving my faults, with not sending the passport for the vignette but rather uploading an image of my passport on the application portal. Then UKVI not providing clarity on my situation, it left me with a lot of uncertainty. Escalations after escalations were being raised and eventually, my course deadline day arrived. I was not able to attend my studies for the year, but luckily the uni was kind enough to be understanding and deferred me to this year (2023). This year I needed tranquility with the chaotic process that is immigration, due to the uni taking an extended amount of time with the CAS and also not knowing how my prior application would affect my new one. With all this, Sanae was the right person for the job. She's professional, thorough, very respectful and timely. A lovely person to work and talk with, she never made me feel like uncertain. If Sanae is a reflection of OTS as a firm, I can guarantee you that the entire office is full of capable professionals that are willing to help. I went through a lot of solicitors before I found OTS, but from the moment I contacted them I knew I was going to get the help and service I needed. I can't recommend this firm or Sanae enough to anybody needing help, sometimes it is worth paying a little bit more out of pocket to acquire things, especially immigration related needs. I wish Sanae all the best in her future work, I will surely use her as a first reference if I ever need representation again.

    Victoria was exceptionally professional and helped me and my wife apply for a spouse visa for the UK. The service required as little effort as possible on our part and she was very communicative. Therefore, I would recommend OTS to other British people looking to bring family members to the country from abroad.

    We experienced a complete lack of proficiency and attentiveness during our interactions with the OTS team. Our initial consultation was confirmed and scheduled, but when the day came we did not receive the meeting link. When we followed up with our contact we found they were on leave that day at the agreed time of our consultation. After finally having a consultation with a different contact, it took several days of follow up to receive the outline of services we were told would be provided after the meeting. After making our initial payment for services we never received the outline of documents needed to start our application despite following up on two occasions. It was only when we sent an email requesting a withdrawal of instruction that we received a response within minutes looking to resolve our concerns and retain our business. Unfortunately, by that point, our trust had been lost. We have since found a new solicitor that has provided attentive service to our visa application. The only positive experience with OTS was the relatively smooth process in receiving our requested refund.

    Nollienne Alparaque gave me some short, sharp advice on a difficult property matter which was pragmatic and commercial and really helpful. Sheh was a sympathetic ear too. I was impressed.

  • 5/5 Alicia C. 3 months ago on Google • 6 reviews New
    I am immensely grateful to Nollienne at OTS Solicitors for her exceptional assistance in obtaining my partner visa for the UK. Nollienne's expertise and dedication were evident throughout the process, and her personalized approach made a significant difference. She navigated the complexities of immigration law with precision, providing clear and timely communication. Thanks to her efforts, I am now happily reunited with my partner in the UK. I highly recommend OTS Solicitors and Nollienne for her outstanding work. Thank you for making this journey smoother and ensuring a positive outcome for my case. A 10/10 from me!

    I had been in touch with Sanae Sahebjalal from OTS Solicitors to assist me with my Skilled Visa procedure as my case was a tad bit complicated. I am extremely pleased with the service provided by Sanae, the timely responses and proactive interactions really made the entire process absolutely hassle-free. I would highly recommend OTS Solicitors for any immigration related matters. Thanks OTS Solicitors and Sanae Sahebjalal :)

    I would like to thank Maryem Ahmed and OTS solicitors for excellent guidance and excellent result on a very difficult case for permission to stay in the UK for my elderly mother. Maryem advised me on the best application route and assisted with the preparation and checking of the documents, of which there were well over a hundred pieces. She gave me very sensible advice throughout the application and I am delighted with the positive result, which I know can be very hard to achieve.

  • 5/5 Darshinni R. 4 months ago on Google • 3 reviews
    My solicitor Maryem has been amazing. She helped me through the entire visa application process, answered all my queries and doubts and supported me in getting the right documents required for the spousal visa application. She also helped me get everything together and reviewed for submission quickly and accurately. Thanks so much OTS/Maryem

    Made it through the long wait but definitely in good hands with Bezhad Sharmin. Immigration is tough but she made the process tolerable. Great work on getting my fiancé visa! Will be hopefully looking to her to do my spouse visa. Thank you, Bezhad! Happy Holidays!

  • 5/5 Carl R. 1 year ago on Google
    OTS Solicitors recently helped me attain my spouse visa. Dhaya was my contact and she was always quick to answer my questions, which put my mind at ease throughout the process. Her knowledge of and advice on all scenarios made the whole process feel flawless. I will definitely be calling again when I need to renew my visa and recommend the business to anyone in need of assistance.

  • 5/5 Bahja A. 1 year ago on Google
    We used OTS to aid us in our spouse visa application after previously being rejected doing it on our own. Sanae was the solicitor handling our case and she made this process easy from start to finish. She was very communicative and explained what would be required for a successful application and then guided us every step of the way. After an initial delay due to the crisis in Ukraine, we are so happy to finally have our spouse visa approved. We couldn't be more grateful toward Sanae for her help and encouragement.

    I have been working with Philip Saville and Sanae Sahebjalal on visa extension for my parents and it was a great experience. They have been professional, supportive and extremely helpful throughout the process. I would highly recommend OTS Solicitors and in particular Philip and Sanae. Thank you, both!

  • 5/5 Dalya Koprulu (. 1 year ago on Google
    I am very happy to come across Mr. Philip, he managed to provide legal advice and assistance regards to tenancy contract. I have contacted other solicitors but I couldn't get an appointment until days later and had to pay loads for an immediate consultation in advance. Philip contacted me in the same day, gave me the exact information I needed instantly and the information he provided was extremely helpful for my situation with no payment unless I would need them to go over my contract later. Thank you so much Philip! Definitely highly recommend them, very professional and informed. Dalya Koprulu

  • 5/5 Sonya V. 1 year ago on Google
    I used OTS for both a fiance visa and later a spouse visa. Both applications went through seamlessly and were delivered on time despite the fear of COVID delays or Ukrainian refugee delays. I worked with Hans both times. He obviously knows how to approach these things but it is also your responsibility (as a client) to provide the necessary documents and thoroughly check over everything in then end before he does the submission. We will be using him again when we need to apply for our extension in 2.5 years.

    We had a wonderful experience with Sanae Sahejbalal who supported us in our successful UK spouse visa application for my Filipino husband when we were Dubai residents. We would highly recommend Sanae and OTS solicitors, who made a difficult application relatively stress free. Thank you Sanae!

    I have used OTS solicitors for the UK spouse visa application. Main point of was Maryem who not only guided me with this process but also went out of her own way to make this application process go smoothly and efficiently. She answered any questions or concerns and did not disappoint. I can say she is a shining example of excellence for this firm and as a result we have managed to receive visa which I am a very grateful for. If I was ever to use her services again for any legal matter, rest assured I will not hesitate.

    I couldn't recommend OTS Solicitors enough, especially Hans Sok Appadu, he's brilliant. Not only he's very competent, he's also very patient and he replied promptly to all my queries. I took several of my visas with him and the last step was my British Citizenship which I just got confirmation today. I'm really happy with his services and have only great things to say about how they conduct business. You can trust your matter with them. Thank you, Hans!!

    Worst service I have ever seen. They also took 9 weeks to send me a £200 refund. I would like to personally name Diana Agudelo and Maryhem Ahmed for their incompetence and inefficiency to solve the tinniest of issues. Never make the same mistake I did and hire OTS
