Visa Application for my Wife

Deborah and her team were fantastic in the process of my wife's initial visa application and her subsequent renewal. The attention to detail in ensuring a positive outcome is no accident. They know what they are doing. I have no hesitation in recommending Deborah and her team, as I have done over the past 2 years, to anyone needing their services. Once again, many thanks. :)

Our Help in time of need

Deborah Linford is a blessing to us and we thank Providence for her. Deborah took on our complex immigration case at very short notice and went the extra mile on our behalf, securing the best possible outcome for us. Deborah's kind, caring and compassionate nature was evident to us from the outset and throughout the process and impressed us greatly. To anyone in need of legal assistance we would recommend that you look no further than Deborah Linford. Thank you, Deborah.

On the mark!

I had a very short space of time to find a solicitor who could help me with a not so straightforward family court matter. From contacting Sills and Betteridge, my experience has been straightforward and handled in an understanding, non-judgemental way that has helped me feel heard and at easy. I had represented myself throughout the court process for a year but got to the point where I needed expertise and guidance and I am so thankful I chose Sills to help me moving forward. Highly recommend for family court matters, specifically anyone who has suffered domestic abuse. A huge thank you to; Josh, Sarah Johnston, Tom and Niaomi. (Sarah's name wasn't available on the selection box).

Sarah Davies was absolutely fantastic she was the only person who took on my case and was incredibly helpful not only as a solicitor but she became a friend. Someone who listened and didn't judge. Honestly 100% recommend her to anyone who needs someone on their side without judgement. Sarah thank you for all you did for me. All the love in the world to you!

We were highly recommended the services of Deborah Linford, by a former colleague, as an Immigration Solicitor who would be able to assist my wife in obtaining as spouse settlement visa, as we return to my native England after many years living abroad. Deborah met every expectation, calmly navigating us around the intricacies of the application and ensuring we had all the documentation prepared and ready for submission, even though we were working on it thousands of miles away. She kept us fully informed of all developments along the journey to receiving the visa, which my wife now has. We would have no hesitation in recommending Deborah as an Immigration Solicitor to anyone else seeking a spouse settlement visa - or for any other service related to immigration - and in fact, we already have. Many thanks again, Deborah.
