Rita and Evelyn were outstanding throughout my VISA application process. Their communication was clear and prompt, their advice was expert and reassuring, and they maintained a high level of professionalism even under tight time constraints. I’m truly grateful.

Malcolm Hachemi dealt with my citizenship application from start to finish, he was regularly in contact keeping me informed and updated, he and his team were highly professional throughout the lengthy process to its conclusion. I could not have been happier and would recommend there services to anyone looking to gain UK citizenship.

Rita previously worked with us to secure our children's UK passports, and their name change by deed poll. Hugely successful, helping us to navigate through the HO processes which are at best complex and less than responsive. It was therefore with great pleasure and confidence that we engaged Rita and Evelyn again to assist with Dora's ILR submission. Having both Rita and Evelyn on board was key to this submission, enabling a seamless and continuous pressure to be maintained and driving the submission through to a successful conclusion. We are delighted with the services we received and will look to engage Rita and Evelyn again for Dora's naturalisation. Well Done!
Rita has been a fantastic solicitor helping us for a number of years now, its started when we apply for visiting visa for our children and as been rejected that when we asked Rita to help us and now the children have been travelling since, thank to Rita for making it possible.

I worked with Rita for over nine years on my spouse visa application. Throughout the entire process, she was exceptionally professional, understanding, and consistently well‑organised. Her dedication and expertise made a huge difference, and thanks to her fantastic work, my visa has finally been granted. I would highly recommend Rita’s services.

Rita provided outstanding support with my father’s British citizenship application. She was professional and always clear in her communication, which made the whole process much less stressful. Thanks to her dedication and expertise, the application was successful. I’m very grateful for Rita’s excellent service and would highly recommend her to anyone needing an immigration solicitor!

I’m extremely grateful for the help and support I received throughout my settlement agreement. From the very beginning, Patrick was incredibly sympathetic and understanding of my situation, which made what was already a stressful time much easier to deal with. He took the time to explain all the legal terminology in a way that I could actually understand and never made me feel uncomfortable asking questions. I always felt listened to, supported, and confident that I understood what I was agreeing to. I would highly recommend their services to anyone needing advice and support with a settlement agreement. Professional, compassionate, and genuinely helpful from start to finish. 5 stars without hesitation!

One can appreciate that you don’t ever find yourself in need of help or assistance from solicitors. However in this case, part of me was relieved that I could rely on Richard Nelson LLP. They are fast and professional in their responses, always have time to listen to any concerns, no matter large or small, and clearly have extensive experience which provided me with assurance that the best outcome was possible. Thank you, with all sincerity, thank you.
Professional. friendly and knowledgeable solicitors who listen, understand, and show empathy. The Richard Nelson team were wonderful at every touch point. They were more than a solicitor and there in my hour of need. When other firms told me I had no rights and they couldn't do anything, this wonderful team listened, understood, were empathetic and provided a professional service. The support from the team also in turn helped my mental health in what was a stressful and traumatic experience dealing with the police and courts.
Patrick was exceptionally quick to respond, and consistently accurate in his assessment of the situation and his recommendations. He ensured the matter was dealt with promptly, professionally, and achieved the outcome I was looking for. No hesitation in recommending Patrick if you need his assistance.

I cannot recommend Marjorie Creek and Richard Nelson LLP highly enough. Marjorie supported me through an incredibly difficult and prolonged period, and I will always be deeply grateful that I had her in my corner. Her knowledge, experience and professional judgement were invaluable, but what made such a difference was the genuine compassion, kindness and reassurance she showed throughout. During a situation that was often extremely challenging, knowing that I could turn to Marjorie for clear advice, support and guidance gave me enormous reassurance. She was always approachable, responsive and there when I needed her, acting promptly and professionally while never losing the human touch. I always felt that she genuinely cared about my situation and was committed to achieving the best possible outcome for me. It is difficult to put into words just how much her support meant during that time. Marjorie is an exceptional professional and a genuinely compassionate person, and I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone needing knowledgeable, trustworthy and supportive legal representation.

Thank you for this review. We are fortunate to have Marjorie in our team!
As a lawyer myself it was interesting for me to see things from the other side. I did not expect to be in a position to need the advice I required but was so relieved to find Steve Roberts - an extremely competent, calm and personable solicitor who put me at my ease within minutes of speaking to him. I am so glad I instructed someone else instead of dealing with the case myself- his written response was extremely succinct and well put. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him.
