Professional and excellent service

I would like to express my deep gratitude for the time and effort Dmitri and Caroline have devoted to handling my case. I really did not expect someone to take such a thorough look at the huge number of materials I gathered and compile them into the statement. Thank you for being considerate in how we should proceed with the translation as well.

Smooth and supportive experience with spousal visa

My wife and I worked with Dmitri and Caroline to process my wife's spousal visa to enter the UK. Their professionalism, attention to detail and responsiveness throughout the process was exactly what we needed, and their support helped ensure our case was resolved speedily and smoothly.

5 Stars for Wesley Gryk

Our team was headed by Caroline Asken and Dmitri Macmillen and they could not have been better. Our case was not straightforward but they guided us every step of the way and we are over the moon with the positive result. Reasonable rates and quality service. You won't find better.

NTL (No Time Limit ) e-visa application

We contacted Wesley Gryk to assist in the application for a NTL to enable a transfer of an existing ILR to the new UK e-visa system as required by the Home Office. Caroline Asken was assigned for this and we could not fault her handling of this every step of the way.She provided comprehensive information, always prompt in responding to queries and sent and answered emails promptly. Never did we have any concerns as to the competant way in which our case was being handled. Fees charged were very reasonable given the attention to detail etc required.

Visa solution

I had great experience with Caroline and Dmitri. They were very professional and helpful and understanding. My case was complex with a little evidence but they made sure to get every possible answer and detail and built a great case so I was granted permanent residency in the UK. I am very grateful for their help. Definitely recommend this firm and specifically these lawyers. Originally I got contact of this firm from my friend who used their services for getting UK visa for her husband and she was very happy with them as well.
