Richmond Chambers are excellent.

Richmond Chambers have helped us to go from fiancee visa to British citizenship. They were everything we would have hoped for: Expert knowledge to steer us through the labyrinth of constantly changing legislation; responsive, kind, patient and listening and always accurate, precise and efficient. All of which goes toward a successful outcome. Highly recommended.

We have been working with Richmond Chambers for over 3 years now. They have been meticulous and thorough with our submission both times, In 2018 when we applied for our tier 1 and now with our application for renewal. Thank you, Georgina, Zoe, and Anne, you have been amazing every step of the way, being so responsive even during weekends and holidays. My son Abheek has asked me to thank you on his behalf as he did not want to part with his friends and school here :)

These guys are the best !

These guys are the best !

I have just successfully completed my Tier 1 Entrepreneur visa renewal with the help of Zoe Bantleman, Georgina Griggs and Annie Ee from Richmond Chambers.

They are meticulously organised, thorough, committed and have gone above and beyond what we were expecting on every aspect of our visa renewal process.

From initial advise through what seemed like a sometimes overwhelming and complex submission process, till completion of our biometrics, they've been with us every step of the way.

Highly recommend. If you are looking for an immigration lawyer, these guys are the absolute best.

Stefania Patuto - very professional & efficient

I have used various solicitors in the past but no one could help me due to the complexity of my case. I came across Richmond Chambers in 2012. Since then I have been using Richmond Chambersfor my Leave to Remain.

This year, Stefania prepared my case and application for ILR. She also guided me through the whole process very patiently as I found it a little bit overwhelming at first. She spent so much time in preparing my application. She also set out clear instructions for me to follow to gather all the supporting documents required for this application.

We submitted my application on time (1st April 2021) and got ILR granted on 13th August 2021. Despite the pandemic, we got the decision sooner than I expected and this is because of the efficiency and outstanding work by Stefania. Thank you Stef.

I would highly recommend Stefania and Richmond Chambers.

Catherine Taroni is an outstanding Barrister

Catherine has been paramount to all my partner’s applications ranging from an EEA family permit to the pre-settlement status. She has always been extremely transparent with us on what to expect from each application to the Home Office.
The quality of the services provided has been second to none, Catherine was available 24/7 when urgent matters arose: she was on the phone with us until 4am on a Sunday night when we had trouble at the border.

Would 100% recommend Catherine and Richmond chambers to anybody, and in fact have done so numerous times before.

This review is almost 2 years late and I was so sure I had done it ! This is to thank Dr Catherine Taroni for all her help with my husbands case. Catherine was extremely knowledgeable, thoughtful and explicit with every step of the process. After being separated for almost 2 years I am so grateful that Catherine was able to support us and would reccomend her time and time again. My husband will be renewing his visa next year and although it’s supposed to be a straight forward application I will be reaching out to Catherine again as I know her input is invalaubale. I know the immigration process is a stressful one and looking online we aren’t always sure all reviews are real, I myself struggled with this but this is very much a real review. Please reach out to Richmond chambers and let them help you. I am so sure you will not regret it.

Recommendation of Stefania

I would strongly recommend Stefania due to the professionalism and simplicity of her explanation of how the Fiancé Visa would work. My partner and I are looking forward to marrying next year, and due to the friendly and comforting support given by Stefania, we look forward to requesting Stefania to assist me, my partner and kids through the process.

Highly Recommend!

I couldn’t be more pleased with the service we received from our team, which included Zoe Bantleman, Georgina Griggs, Annie Ee and Edward Abedian. They assisted us in acquiring a Sponsorship License for our company and then a Skilled Worker Visa.

They were responsive (ex. emails always responded to promptly, even on “off” hours like weekends or evening) professional, knowledgeable and skilled.
They met all of our deadlines and didn’t disappoint in any way.

Our case had some challenges but I am happy to say, due to the skill and knowledge of our team, we had success.😀

We used a difference legal firm previously, and Zoe Georgina, Ed, and Annie, we’re far, far superior to our previous experience

I would not hesitate to recommend Richmond chambers to family or friends and will definitely utilize their services in the future for our immigration matters.

Outstanding Professional Service

The service provided by Richmond Chambers is extremely professional and efficient. With special thanks to Zoe Bantleman and Edward Abedian. Zoe always replied my email promptly, and often went the extra mile like working over the weekend. It was worth what I paid for it. Highly recommended.

Beyond every expectation

I employed the services of Richmond Chambers after using other and cheaper companies for years! What an absolute pleasure and privilege to have one of this team handle my son’s case. Professional excellence is an understatement. The final document detailed several hundred pages and our lawyer, Jasmine, carefully analysed and prepared each page using her incredible knowledge and expertise to guide us through the most sensitive of information. An extraordinary experience. I highly recommend this firm and am doing so to all my friends and colleagues needing immigration guidance. No hidden costs, no empty promises, the timeline was completely accurate and we really felt supported every step of the way. Thank you thank you thank you. I will be using again when it’s time for my other children.

Invaluable advice from Dr Catherine Taroni from Richmond Chambers

My family and I received invaluable advice from Dr Catherine Taroni from Richmond Chambers. No rating would be high enough to reflect her professionalism, knowledge of law and ability to connect the dots to find the easiest solution. She suggested us to take a route which was missed by all countless immigration advisers I turned to before. The second easiest way suggested by one of them would have cost us some £10k more, meant finding tons of supporting documents and [most importantly] at least 7.5 years longer before we could get our settlement permission.
Now, when it’s all behind us and the shiny ILR cards rest in our wallets I would like to thank Dr Taroni very much!
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her advice to anybody who needs professional help with immigration. Worth every penny is an understatement!

Best experience with an immigration law firm. Can’t recommend enough!

We had been in touch with a number of solicitors who we felt didn’t listen to the core our case and our unique situation. However our experience with Alex and Alex from the very first meeting was different. They not only listened, but fully understood us, our case and provided very thorough and well laid out plan. We knew we were facing an extremely uphill struggle to try and succeed with our case, and Alex and Alex were always on hand to alleviate any anxieties we were experiencing. They helped us put together our complex case, were professional and treated us like human beings rather than just another case. 6 months on since submitting our application we finally got some good news and I can’t thank god enough for finding Richmond Chambers and helping us to fulfill one of our dreams.

This is my second time using Richmond…

This is my second time using Richmond Chambers for immigration matters. I was fortunate to work with Paul directly on both these applications. His planning and execution is flawless. Very methodical and logical. Documentation is intense, but this hard work really pays off. Organising the case in a manner which is so clear is an art Paul is a master at. Definitely two thumbs up!

Excellent Efficient & Professional service

I was waiting for ILR more than a year. Then I contacted Richmond Chambers and I was introduced to Mr Simon Canter on the following day. He agreed to write a letter to the Home office and less than a month dated from his letter I received a response and my ILR was granted.
I would specially like to emphasise his efficiency as he did it on the same day he contacted me without taking weeks. Thank you Simon for your professionalism and highly recommended.
