Michelle was on top of everything; would 100% recommend
Michelle helped us with getting our UK skilled worker sponsor status. She was on top of everything in the entire process end-to-end, from giving customized advice based on our needs, to preparing the documents, to drafting the cover letter, to giving advice post-application. She was always professional, detail-oriented, and efficient.
Our application has since been successful and we have been able to bring our co-founder and one additional software engineer from the US/EU to the UK.

Support with citizenship application
I needed support with a citizenship application as my case was non-standard and difficult to navigate alone.

Our organisation has worked with Michelle (Lee) for over two years in processing of new certificates of sponsorship and skilled worker visas for our company. We find Michelle extremely approachable and is always able to explain the situation very clearly and in 'layman's terms'. We have found that her advice is essential for processing the sponsoring of individuals and that she is extremely knowledgeable on all immigration legal matters. Comes highly recommended!

Sponsorship of a foreign national to work in the UK
Truth Legal guided us through the entire process of becoming an approved company able to sponsor workers coming to the UK, applying for a specific Sponsor Licence and assigning it to an individual who is about to start work on a 3 year sponsored employment. I found them to be highly efficient, professional, patient and thorough in steering us through what was often a detailed and complicated process.

Thanks for your hard work with our long case.
Almost 2 years ago I was looking for a solicitor to deal with my complicated case and I heard about this firm from a friend of mine and they were not disappointed me.
First of all I would like to say that as for me our case was hard and I was afraid of how are they going to deal with it but after talking to Michelle who was the first solicitor who dealt with our case I felt a lot better because she was really nice, polite and really accurate with all the details that I told her then we had a new solicitor taking care of our case who was Louis, at the beginning I was worried working with Louis because I was afraid that he might not know and understand all the information that I told Michelle before but he did a brilliant job, even though he had been dealing with our case for a long time at least almost 2 years, but he was really patient with us and found the ways to solve our problems and made us to the point that we got the visa at the end of the day.
Moreover, the best things that I also like about them are the fact that they are really good at making decisions, clear communication and fast with updating new stuff with my application.
Therefore, If you are looking for a solicitor to deal with your case, I recommend you to contact this company as you as possible
Thank you so much Michelle, Louis and Carissa for what you did to us I am really appreciate it.

Michelle was fantastic!
I had a really good experience with Michelle, from the first rush call with Louis, then following up from zero with Michelle, I am very pleased that I have great advice and guidance from her. Personally, I think I wouldn't be able to succeed in obtaining my citizenship without her knowledge and constant feedback. Thank you so much for everything!! And apologies for being too annoying with my constant emails and doubts.

Citizenship application
Michelle was thorough in making sure I had all the required documents and very constructive in suggesting other ways to provide proof when I thought I would not be able to obtain some of the key documents required. While in the end my application turned out not to be the most complicated one, I am very glad I had Michelle to help me through the sometimes overwhelming application process. Communication was excellent, and the fees for each stage of the process were set out clearly from the outset and were adhered to - a relief given the expense involved in the citizenship process already!

Recommended!!!
Me and my partner had Michelle represent us on on very complex immigration case that was deemed near impossible by previous solicitors that we had contacted and used.
We had to try regardless as our lives and futures depended on having hope for success and so we contacted Truth Legal. The service we received went far beyond our expectations!
Michelle treated us with care and humility and we immediately felt in good hands.
We are still stunned that the Visa application was a success, yet regardless of the result we would still be singing the praises of our solicitor who has changed our lives.
Cant thank Michelle and truth Legal enough.
