Alison Law not to be trusted.
It is almost a year ago to the day (May’21) when I first contacted Alison Law for advice concerning the application for a residential visa for my fiancé. They were quick to take £1500.00 in advance and sent us a questionnaire.
We married in October of that year and once we had all our documents and paperwork in order, including our marriage certificate, we submitted everything to our new solicitor (our original one had quit, without telling us) and that is when they became more elusive than the Scarlet Pimpernel. Attempts to get updates from them by phone or email came to nothing. We had deadlines that they were aware of but as to getting any further advice concerning biometrics or where to go or when… Nothing.
We grew so desperate that we sacked them and undertook the whole enterprise ourselves which was actually very straight forward if you follow the UK government website. Of course there were a lot of additional charges which Alison Law hadn’t warned us about but that’s not surprising given how awful their communications were.
The whole terrible episode is in the hands of the Legal Ombudsman now. Be warned! The service provided by Alison Law is not to be trusted. It really is very straight forward if you do it yourself and certainly a lot quicker.
So here we are, after a very expensive though successful application, still at least £1500.00 out of pocket thanks to Alison Law but at least we got our visa, no thanks to them.

My husband hired this company to help secure a sponsorship visa. I have never seen my husband SO STRESSED & ANGRY, they are utterly USELESS. Paid a grand upfront (first mistake) back in early Feb and they HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING, so much so we're now paying someone else to do it. Chased & chased for updates and no one could give us one - in the end asked for a refund & they offered us £300 if we take our reviews down 🤣? How professional. They are IMPOSSIBLE TO GET HOLD OF, someone will always 'ring you back' which obviously they don't. Honestly the WORST and most stressful experience of our lives. AVOID. I can see on here from reviews it's a common thing, I'd advise anyone else who it's happened to, to complain to SRA. And anyone that hasn't used them...don't.
UPDATE SINCE THEIR REPLY:
They only know that we had issues with the employment contract because we contacted them asking for advice, you know because we're paying them (but had absolutely no response from them to help us)
If anyone is wondering, we are still going through with the sponsorship with same employee but using different solicitors 👍?
And please do contact us, shame you don't reply to emails and calls as quick as you do reviews!
Also never used the word 'scam' - you said that yourse

Alison Law set my Husband up to “overstay” status
AVOID - DH appointed Alison Law to apply indefinite leave to remain in Oct since his BRP had an expiry date of 2 Jan 22 which was 1 month short of the 5 years requirement but Home Office refused to correct. Paid fixed fee, submitted all information, kept emailing and called for updates and had to wait until 22 Dec before receiving email from Bahdshad Khan the application drafting has just started. Called Bahdshad the next day and found out Alison Law was closed for Christmas till 5 Jan. DH checked with the Home Office and seek outside advice on 30 Dec then went onto changing the password of the application in order to gain access and found the application was incomplete and had not submitted. DH lodged a new application immediately and emailed Alison Law to terminate their service plus requesting a full refund. On 4 Jan, Bahdshad emailed DH asking for new password for him to complete the application and referred the case to Alison Law dispute team after DH resent him the termination notice.
The experience with Alison Law was so stressful and caused great deal of panic to DH throughout. Bahdshad does not like replying email and return calls. DH now decided to obtain the calling history from the mobile company since Bahdshad accused DH not answering the call and caused the application delay. DH will take action to claim for loss and damage as his chase for the refund, again being ignored.

Very good lawyers, charged me a reasonable fee, provided me with a meeting with one of their lawyers at their offices where I explained the background to them. They explained the law in simple terms and represented me in Court where they were able to get the result we were aiming for. A very professional and straight talking company that does what they say they will do. I would certainly recommend using this company for legal issues
