Tier 1 Investor Visa - Business Immigration
Investing
over 2 million pounds is defintely not a routine decision. We had to make sure that the Tier 1
investor immigration lawyers that we'd be picking
has to be one of the best within the Tier 1 investor category. We contacted Reiss Edwards and they
were able to get us not only the Tier 1 investor visa but
also suggested profitable investment portfolios in addition to what we already had in mind.
Indefinite Leave to remain - UK Settlement and
Naturalisation
I am glad that i instructed Reiss Edwards on my visa matter. It started with a 20 minutes free
immigration advice. I met with Amar to discuss my ILR refusal. He gave me a great deal of
quality advice and decided to take on my messy case. I had doubts on the merits of my case by he was
relatively convinced
he could win it. That made me quite secure. To be honest, things did not start as quick as I would
have wanted, but they kept on communicating the process and state of things
to me.A big thank you to Verusha and Foram. They were also very helpful. Brilliant and informative.
Their fee was fair and reasonable, especially if you compare them to other law firms and immigration
law firms in London; some of whom even told me that i would not be able to get an indefinte leave to
remain in this country.
The process was long but was worth it. In the end, a big thank you to Reiss Edwards.
Citizenship Application - UK Naturalisation
TI have just had British Citizenship application approved. Prior to making the application, i was not
sure which law firm
i should hire to facilitate the paperwork. After a few hours of research, i decided to go with Reiss
Edwards and i must confess that
i wasnt disappointed. The immigration lawyers at Reiss Edwards handled my case well and they really
knew what they were doing. They were fully
aware of what documents I needed and it was easy for them to tell if my case was going to be easy or
not. At the end of the day, I have not received my British citizenship within 3 months. If anyone is
looking for a good immigration lawyer to handle thier case, contact Reiss Edwards.
Spouse Visa - Appeals and visa refusals
Fantastic Solicitors!!!
My wife's spouse visa extension application was refused by the Home Office and they gave her 14 days
to leave the country.
We contacted Reiss Edwards and they said "OK don't worry we will sort this out". They put together the
list of documents
for me to obtain and they prepared a bundle which was as thick as the printer it came out from.We
followed everything they asked us to do and in the end we won our appeal and got our spouse visa. We
can't recommend them enough and we have promised ourselves never to make any more UK visa applications
without them.

UK Settlement Visa
I contacted Reiss Edwards to help me with my wife’s UK settlement visa. They acted with utmost

for error. At some point I thought he was over cautious. He remained calmed and continued to assure us
on our immigration matter. Most people in his position would have panicked but he was calmed and
continued to assure us. We received out positive outcome very quickly.

Indefinte Leave to remain - Individual Immigration - UK Settlement
visa
It's a shame that you dont have an 'Excellent' star rating on here, as my experience with Reiss
Edwards is nothing short
of an excellent rating. They handled my application for an Indefinite Leave to remain in April 2014
and did my husband's one
very recently including my daughter. Every time i have approached them, they have continued to treat
me with courtesy,
respect and patience. Amar was indeed a very thorough and professional gentleman. He is very
knowledgeable, corporative and
engaging. He responded to my emails, calls and enquiries promptly. He was always reassuring. I could
not have asked for a better
Immigration service. I would recommend them over and over again for anyone looking for an immigration
advice.
They gave me a free immigration advice when i called them, and the quality of the advice was something
other charge thousands for.
If you need a particular, name, Amar would be it. He exemplifies, for me, the true, professional
gentleman.
He is a valuable asset to Reiss Edwards.
Tier 2 Visa application - UK Work Visas
This is the only firm that i spoke with that didn't ask for money before listening to me, will be
using them again.
I used Reiss Edwards for my Tier 2 visa application and it was successful. The team was ever present
and happy to answer my question. The caseworker that dealing with my case went on holiday yet by case
did not suffer one bit. Another lawyer stepped and took
over the case without any hassle.
Tier 1 Investor Visa - Business Immigration
My Tier 1 Investor Visa was dealt with quickly and without issue. Would recommend Reiss Edwards as an
Immigration law firm in London. Thank you to the team.
