Best Experience & Result

If your circumstances are at all challenging, spare yourself the pain and frustration of trying to navigate UKVI and select Blair Melville at Teneu Legal. I spoke with several solicitors before selecting Teneu Legal. After our initial conversation it was clear they were the ones I needed advising me through the draconian UKVI system.

Mr. Melville gave me a clear understanding of what I needed to do to secure my UK spouse visa. He explained the process, provided me detailed instructions, a timeline for the process and an honest and fair fee to handle my case. He was prompt to reply to my requests and questions. I was grateful for his extensive experience working with UKVI as he was able to give me information about the process I was unable to find on my own.

I genuinely believe I would not have been granted my visa without his professional experience and wise counsel. I will definitely be seeking Teneu Legal's assistance when I apply for the renewal of my current visa in 2 1/2 years.

The very best!

I've worked with Blair for a long time, and he's an absolute legend. He's always clearly communicated exactly what he needs from me, what his next steps are, and how everything is going to work. I've got Indefinite Leave now, and I couldn't have done it without him!

Excellent service from beginning to the end! Highly recommended

I hired this firm to apply for my my wife's right to remain and ultimately citizenship for UK. Our lawyer gave as good honest advice throughout our journey keeping us updated about the progress of our application regularly. I couldn't recommend this firm more.

Until I found Teneu phone up and spoken with Blair he put my mind at ease. my case was very stressful where i had to change jobs and things since like this day will never come but Blair kept encouraging me. Very supportive Solicitor Blair is.

Blair was very quick to respond to our issue and outlined all options before taking action. He counselled us as our advocate and we proceeded from his direction. He acted as a true advocate the result of which was a satisfactory conclusion.

Kudos to Teneu for dis-ending sound and heartfelt advice.

First class service

I wish to thank you Blair and express my gratitude for your excellent work on my behalf. From the first telephone conversation you were very helpful and honest. I found the whole process stress free due to your input. You dealt with me in a professional way and showed patience and understanding during my many enquiries, and your advice at every step was really good and professional. And in the end was very pleased with the outcome.
I would highly recommend your services to friends and family.
Once again thank you for a great service.
