Amazing to work with

Sherena made the whole process of applying for our spouse visa so seamless that we almost felt like it was too easy. She asked for the necessary documents, booked the appointment and had my approval the next day. It was great

At first I was worried about the process, but after the initial consultation Sherena put my mind at ease. She explained everything simply and straightforward. The process was so smooth and simplified. Every correspondence was timely and informative. I couldnt have asked for anyone better to help me with my application. High quality standard of service I will be recommending Sherena to others who need to go through the same process.

It is completely natural to feel a bit worried at the start of an application process, so we are absolutely delighted to hear that Sherena was able to put your mind at ease right from your very first consultation. Hearing that you couldn't have asked for anyone better and that you will be recommending Sherena to others is the highest praise we could receive. Thank you for choosing us, and we wish you the absolute best with your successful application!

Visa Journey feedback

We would like to sincerely thank Nisha for her support and guidance throughout our visa journey. We applied for a visa three months ago, and she was incredibly helpful from start to finish. Nisha took the time to clearly explain each stage of the application process, ensuring that we fully understood what was required and what to expect. Her patience, attention to detail, and willingness to answer all of our questions made what could have been a stressful experience feel much more manageable and reassuring. Thanks to her expertise and encouragement, both my partner and I felt confident and well-prepared throughout the entire process, ensuring that it was straightforward and achievable. We are truly grateful for her assistance in helping us achieve a successful outcome and would happily recommend her to others.

We used Cartwright King (a recommendation from the immigration advisers at Sheffield Hallam University) to apply for indefinite leave to remain for a family member. We were allocated Sherena who was very professional throughout, explaining the process clearly and informing us what documents we needed. (There are a lot!) Our application was successful and we were delighted with Sherena’s customer service and knowledge of the process. Everything was done remotely via video calls, email and phone so wherever you are in the UK I highly recommend using Cartwright King for your immigration needs. Thank you.

We used Cartwright King to handle the immigration process required to allow my partner, now wife, to settle with me upon my return to live in the UK, after living/working in the Middle East for many years. Sherena was most professional, holding remote video sessions whilst we were still living abroad and keeping us informed of the visa submission process/application status. Both visa applications were successfully completed at the first attempt. The visa process can be daunting and the supporting documentation extensive, which risks the application being rejected should the submission fail to satisfy immigration requirements. I recommend using an experienced immigration solicitor, such as Cartwright King, rather than attempt to navigate the process oneself, to avoid potential omissions or insufficient evidence, which may lead to a rejected visa application.

A representative from Cartwright King Solicitors responded to this review

Thank you Ian for your review of Cartwright King Solicitors. We're so pleased that Sherena was able to help with the immigration process and we hope she was a pleasure to work with throughout. We take pride in our customer service and want to ensure that all of our clients get the best legal support. If there's anything else we can do for you, please don't hesitate to let us know. Thank you again for choosing Cartwright Kind Solicitors.

My husband and I engaged Andre initially in 2016, for his spousal sponsored visa 2nd application. Our case is rather unusual, as we are totally self-employed, rely on cash savings, and live on board a 60 foot narrowboat continuously cruising the Inland Waterways of England and Wales! It took a little while for Andre to become au fait with our circumstances. But he persisted. The second application was successful, and far less stressful knowing the Andre was on top of all the never-ending changes. we've recently applied for my husband's Indefinite Leave to Remain, and are as confident as we can be that it will be a positive outcome. We can't thank Andre enough for his calmness, his knowledge, his professionalism, his reassurance, his patience, his tenacity, and his approachability. We recommend him highly. Thank you. Sandra & Barry

Could not recommend Sonia highly enough

I cannot recommend Sonia Racker highly enough. Having gone through what was an incredibly emotional and challenging family court process, having Sonia by my side made such a huge difference. Throughout the entire proceedings, Sonia was exceptionally helpful, professional and knowledgeable. She always explained things clearly and kept her advice concise and to the point, which was particularly reassuring when I was feeling overwhelmed or anxious. What I appreciated most was that Sonia never lost sight of the fact that, behind all of the legal issues, this was an extremely emotional experience for me. She was always mindful of my feelings whilst still giving me honest, realistic and reassuring legal advice. She had a wonderful way of easing my nerves and helping me feel more confident about each stage of the process. I always felt that I was in safe hands with Sonia and that she genuinely cared about achieving the best possible outcome for me. I am incredibly grateful for all of her support, guidance and reassurance throughout such a difficult time. I would wholeheartedly recommend Sonia Racker to anyone looking for a solicitor who is not only highly knowledgeable and professional, but also compassionate, understanding and genuinely supportive. She has been absolutely fantastic.

Outstanding legal representation at a very difficult time.

In a difficult legal case where the outcome was far from certain, I chose to move my representation to Cartwright King after losing confidence in my previous advocates. The support I received from Leanne Brown at Cartwright King was so much better than I expected. Leanne pulled out all the stops, kept me up to date, and jumped on any case concerns I raised with vigour. Thanks to Leanne and the excellent Barrister chosen to represent me the case was knocked out of the park, so-to-speak. A big win!

Exceptional Professionalism: Highly Recommended

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Ms Navpreet Virk-Kooner and the entire CartwrightKing Solicitors team for their outstanding support throughout the year-long family case. From the very beginning, they demonstrated exceptional professionalism, consistency, dedication, and attention to detail. What stood out most was not only their high professional standards but also their patience, kindness, integrity, and genuine commitment to achieving the best possible outcome for their client. Ms Virk-Kooner provided invaluable guidance and support throughout the process, ensuring that I was kept informed and reassured at every stage. Her expertise and dedication gave me confidence during what could otherwise have been a very challenging experience. THANK YOU SO MUCH! I would also like to extend my heartfelt thanks to Barrister Ms Ann William for her professionalism, expertise, and excellent legal insight. Her thoughtful legal analysis, strategic approach, and commitment to the case were greatly appreciated and contributed significantly to the overall handling of the matter. I am deeply grateful to everyone at CartwrightKing Solicitors for their outstanding legal work, unwavering support, and professionalism throughout this journey. I would not hesitate to recommend their services to anyone seeking expert legal representation. Thank you so much once again for everything you have done. I wish Ms Navpreet Kooner, Ms Ann William, and the entire CartwrightKing Solicitors team continued success and every happiness in the future.

Excellent support

From the very beginning of court proceeding, Majeja was extremley supportive and empathetic towards my family's situation. Her kindness reassured us at times when we truly felt the situation appeared bleak. Majeja always kept means of communication open, and when she wasnt able to respond, she would always let me know that she would catch up with me later. Her advice & expertise resulted in a beautiful and most ideal outcome. I can't thank her enough for being such an amazing advocate for my family & I. We couldn't have done this without you!

UPDATE AND REPLY TO THE RESPONSE BELOW: you have failed to reply to me privately nevermind publicly, I have asked for a copy of the email that was sent to return my passport where you admit to forgetting to send it in April, the high court have told me the exact discussion with Jaya dhaliwal admitting fault, but Jaya dhaliwal and your firm have failed since the 27th of July 2026 to send me a copy of this email or how the mistake happened, nevermind to rectify the cost it implicated for me and the stress. Even after reading this review and responding publicly, you have chosen to still ignore my request privately. I have emailed three times, and rang twice, wrote a public review and contacted the CEO on linked in. Further to this I will be contacting local press as I have all the evidence and took videos during the ordeal. I would like a copy of the email that was sent requesting my passport to be returned dated 27th of July 2026 by Monday end of the working day. I had an awful experience, the solicitor at this court wrongfully claimed I had a formal warning from police which never happened and she then emailed me 2 years later admitting she made a mistake. She also wrongfully has my passport seized at Gatwick airport, because she "forgot" to send an order which meant I am thousands of pounds out of pocket and was stranded until I managed to get it back. When I've made attempts to contact the firm about this, I am repeatedly ignored. Which has led me to have to write a public review and to contact the SRA.

I would like to thank everyone at Cartwright King for helping us through a family case that we genuinely thought might not go our way. It all stemmed from a catastrophic mistake, but Cartwright King, together with our barrister, worked incredibly hard and ultimately achieved a successful outcome. Once I was assigned a solicitor that I could easily contact, the communication was clear and consistent, which made a huge difference. Our case took nearly two years, and although it was a long and stressful process, I did everything I could to assist by providing information and supporting the case whenever needed. I believe that working together helped us achieve the best possible result. Thank you all so much for your hard work, dedication, and support during such a difficult time. We will always be grateful.

from Cartwright King Solicitors

Thank you for sharing your experience, Holly. Navigating complex, long-running family proceedings requires dedication and strong collaboration between client, solicitor, and counsel. The team at Cartwright King appreciates your recognition of our hard work and communication, and we are pleased to have brought this matter to a successful conclusion for you.
