A life-changing experience — thank you,Wesley Gryk
I’m Hamza, and I honestly don’t know where I would be today without Andrew Jones, Morag Campbell, and the incredible team at Wesley Gryk Solicitors. I came to them for help with my asylum claim, and from the very first conversation, I felt that I was in the hands of people who truly cared not just about my case, but about me as a person.
My situation involved deeply personal and sensitive parts of my life. I was afraid to open up at first, but both Andrew and Morag treated me with kindness, patience, and complete respect. They listened without judgment and made me feel safe enough to be completely honest, even about things I’d kept to myself for years.
One thing that really meant a lot was how carefully they handled the people who supported my case. They personally contacted those who provided references to make sure they were comfortable and that their privacy would be respected. That showed me how seriously they take their responsibility — not just legally, but ethically and humanely.
I handed my case to them in late November 2024, and by May 2025, I had received a positive decision. I know how rare it is for things to move that quickly, and I truly believe that without the clarity, care, and skill they brought to my case, I wouldn’t be where I am today.
This wasn’t just legal help — it was a turning point in my life. If you're looking for solicitors who will not only fight for you but also treat you with humanity and dignity, I can’t recommend Wesley Gryk Solicitors — especially Andrew and Morag — highly enough.
Thank you both, from the bottom of my hear

Happy client!!!
From start to finish Andrew and Morag were excellent. We had a unique case that required a large amount of work. Our initial meeting was thorough and professional, yet both Morag and Andrew were empathetic and endearing in their approach.
In our unique case there was no guarantee of a favourable result but throughout the process there was a sense of optimism.
Our case was a success and was achieved in record time. In fact we have a close friend who is going through the same immigration process. His application was made a month prior to ours using a different firm, and is currently still waiting on the result 6 months later.
Andrew came recommended and for good reason. He is the very best at what he does.

Andrew Jones is absolutely the best!
Andrew was recommended to me thru a friend who had positive experience with.
Before coming to Andrew I had another immigration lawyer; the way Andrew approached my case made me feel really reassured, answered all my questions and more, In comparison to previous lawyer.
My words cannot express enough gratitude for the professionalism, and care Andrew treated my case. I felt like I was not just a number, a client, but something more they are fighting for; Because of their hard-work, my life in the U.K can finally be fully lived, without fear of it being taken away.
I would recommend anyone who has had hardship with their immigration status, to look for Andrew. You will not regret! The firm should be proud to have him.

Spousal Visa
I had the pleasure of working with Wesley Gryk Solicitors (Andrew and his team) and I cannot recommend their service highly enough. I was impressed with their professionalism, knowledge and genuine commitment to my case. Please note I was in Uganda while they were dealing with my case.
If teams failed, they could call me directly, I was impressed by that. I appreciated their quick responses to my questions. I felt supported throughout the entire process. I will forever recommend them. Thank you for everything.

Outstanding help and overall support
I had the pleasure of working with Andrew Jones and Swabra Natabi as they assisted me with the application for indefinitely leave to remain here in the UK. My case wasn't exactly straightforward so it was great to know I was in safe hands. Both Andrew and Swabra are extremely knowledgeable in the UK immigration matters, as well as very personable. Whenever I had a question or wasn't sure about something, they would get back to me with a thorough explanation within 24 hours or suggest that we jump on a call. They make you a priority and truly guide you every step of the way. Immigration applications can be stressful but I didn't have to worry about anything as I felt confident Andrew and Swabra had it under control. I would definitely recommend their services to those who need help, and would certainly get back in touch should I ever need any assistance again.

Permanent Residency Application Success!
Andrew helped me to apply for my permanent residency in the UK, we had productive meetings and set realistic timeline. Andrew helped me to put all paperwork together, and answered all my queries and doubts. He made me feel the whole process easy and straightforward! So glad I've now received my permanent residency without any issues :)

Mike Smith Spouses visa.
The whole team were excellent. our case was not so straightforward and if we had of filed the visa application ourselves then I’m convinced that it would of taken a lot more time and stress for me and my wife. The team at Wesley Gryke are not just very professional, they have a genuine passion and determination in helping their clients. And we will be always eternally great full to Swabra, Barry and Andrew. They truly are our heroes. Thanks from Mike and Bebay.
