Worst Experience Ever

Very disappointed with Optimus Law. My DV case was completely mishandled by Rubina, Mehreen, and Maryam. They submitted incorrect information to the Home Office and failed to properly manage important details in my application. Because of their mistakes, my case became stressful and complicated. I trusted them with a sensitive matter, but I did not receive the professional support I expected. I would strongly advise others to be very careful before using this firm for immigration or DV cases.
I had one of the worst experiences with Optimus Law. Communication was poor from the beginning, and every time I asked for updates, I received unclear answers or no proper response at all. Rubina, Mehreen, and Maryam handled my DV case carelessly and provided wrong information to the Home Office, which negatively affected my situation. A DV case requires accuracy, professionalism, and empathy, but sadly I experienced none of these.
I regret choosing Optimus Law for my DV case. My case was badly managed by Rubina, Mehreen, and Maryam, and I felt ignored throughout the process. Important details were either missed or wrongly submitted, creating unnecessary stress and delays. Instead of helping me during a difficult time, they made the situation worse. I would never recommend this firm to anyone dealing with immigration or domestic violence matters.
Extremely unprofessional experience with Optimus Law. The team handling my DV matter did not seem organised or careful with my documents and information. Rubina, Maham, and Maryam provided incorrect details in my case, and I constantly had to chase them for answers. Clients trust legal representatives with serious and life-changing matters, but I felt unsupported and let down throughout the entire process.
I would not trust Optimus Law again after my experience. My DV case was handled poorly, and the mistakes made by Rubina, Mehreen, and Maryam caused me serious stress and anxiety. Wrong information was submitted to the Home Office, communication was weak, and there was very little accountability for the problems they created. I expected professional legal support but instead experienced confusion, delays, and frustration.

Warning - do not work as country expert for Optimus Law

I have been working as a country expert for Optimus Law and must say the way how I was treated after I submitted my final report was appalling. I did not receive payment for my report and over many months my requests via mail and phone were not answered. Robina Shaw several times promised to "pay me next week" or so; it never happened. I never had such an experience with any other UK-based law firm and must say that Optimus Law seems crooked to me.

Unreliable service

Unreliable service.
I was sorry to attempt to use their service for a consultation. Response is not speedy enough. Appointments are not quick enough. IT failure happened from their side on meeting day. Although they offered an option to reschedule on another day, i was in a harry to get a consultation and did not want to wait further. I asked for a refund, but they are reluctant to do, not responding to my emails anymore.

Optimus Law review

Hi,

Its Judith, your asylum client from Optimus Law Firm. I learnt about your leaving the firm early November. I hope you are doing well.
I already have my baby boy. Baby and I are doing fine.
Thanks alot for how you treated me. The home office is already given me allowance for myself and the baby.

Stay Blessed.

Like to fob you off as long as they can, poor service although do at least answer for what is is worth !!!

Great in the advice stage and full of optimism and promise for you and any work. When they get there commission they do wash their hands of you despite those numerous false promises…. Just say you don't care from the off to save time and numerous correspondence and allow the customer to chat with who can impact a decision. And they say they are associated with money supermarket!!!!! Hmmm…….Avoid guys, get a quote that may be a bit more to start with than get sucked In and have additional cost anyway

Miss Robina Shah and Mr Bal Matharu

Miss Robina Shah and Mr Bal Matharu, has always been supportive. At the time of our visa refusal ,because we made the wrong application, Miss Shah gave us a lot of hope. We particularly appreciate how she made complex appear simple, probably because of the years of experience she has. Thank you Miss Shah and the team at Optimus Law. We wish you the best in the future. Thank you again.

Great Team Work

Optimus law has done excellent job, representing me in the court. I have received positive response from court and looking forward to take next step after legalising my status.

However, it took us almost 1.5 year to get final hearing date due to request of documents by court and mainly because of Covid-19.

During this entire period optimus law was very supportive, cooperative, and responsive. Their team is very hard working and understanding.

I wish Optimus law very best of luck for future.

Jehangir.

Excellent Service. Highly Recommended!

Robina has been managing my Tier 1 visa since 2017. She is extremely knowledgeable, focused and is always willing to go the extra mile for her clients. Needless to say, all of my applications have been successful! She and her staff are always ready to help day or night with any concerns. I would *highly* recommend her services.
Robina, thank you so much.

Robina is the best

Robina is the best! She is very professional and helpful and she handled my spouse visa application all the way from Lebanon to the UK and then my extended visa application inside the UK. Highly recommended.

I found Optimus Law online and rang…

I found Optimus Law online and rang them to see if they could help my sister get a fiance visa to marry in the UK. They were very helpful in explaining what she needed to do and i decided to use them for the application.
I was not disappointed as she got the fiance visa first time and then the spouse visa fantastic job we had no problems at all. Thank you very much especially to Ms Robina Shah for all of your hard work.
