My very pleasant experience with Westkin Associates.

I had applied through Westkin Associates for my ILR,
British citizenship naturalisation & British passport .
All three processes went through most efficiently &
smoothly.
My case was based on my marriage to a British citizen.
Dan Pinte as my immigration lawyer had advised
me from the beginning. He had been very knowledgeable,thorough and empathetic .
I am very satisfied with the services received from Westkin & Dan.

Knowledgeable lawyers who deeply care about the people they help

Vlad Papas, Bethannie Cooper and Zarlasht Darwishi helped us when my visa application for leave to remain has been rejected. They were so helpful and supportive through this complicated situation, thanks to their professional advice we were able to have a clear understanding of the situation and make the right decisions. They have always been available to answer any of our questions, even after I was finally granted my visa. I can’t recommend them enough, it’s wonderful to work with lawyers who not only are very knowledgeable about immigration laws but also have empathy and care deeply about the people they help.

Westkin

Westkin, through my assigned lawyer, provided an exceptional service, in advising me on my parent’s permanent settlement application. The time and effort they spent to understand the details of our circumstances, which enabled them to give very specific and helpful advice; and their very thorough knowledge of the ever changing regulations, meant that we were able to prepare an application that could fully meet the expectations under the relevant laws, and eventually be successful. I would happily recommend.

Bethannie Cooper is an amazing…

Bethannie Cooper is an amazing solicitor!

Me and my partner had to apply for the partner visa for me to stay in the UK with him and Bethannie helped us greatly. She and Zarlasht work very precise and are quick.

Westkin has been a great firm from the first moment I filled in their contact form online. I was called within 2 hours and we discussed the case.

Would absolutely recommend them and especially Bethannie.

Successful Unmarried Partner Visa Result - Bethannie Cooper

My experience with Westkin Associates was very much positive, and I received a quick and successful response for my Unmarried Partner Visa application, which was approved in 4 weeks. Bethannie Cooper was very helpful, knowledgeable, patient and clear with what was needed for my application. She is very attentive and responsive to any questions or concerns my partner and I had. Because of the various documents and evidence needed for my application (ie. financial information, reference letters, accommodation details) and particular situation, I feel that Bethannie’s assistance significantly improved my chance of success. A big thank you to Westkin and Bethannie for their help and advice. I recommend anyone who needs visa advice or assistance to consider them.

Super Vlad Papas - the best immigration lawyer!

Vlad Papas was our immigration lawyer and he was absolutely fantastic throughout the whole process. He was knowledgeable, thorough in his processes and friendly. Vlad was always available to answer questions and always reassured us with his extensive knowledge of Immigration law.

I would just like to take a moment to say a huge thank you to Vlad and Westkin Associates for all their help over the past few months for the Visa application. We couldn't have done it without you!

Westkin & Associates/Westkin Law - Bethannie Cooper

Westkin & Associates, specifically Westkin Law provided us with a solicitor, named BETHANNIE COOPER. We were privileged to have such a knowledgeable, personable and exceptional individual assisting us.
We were seeking a spousal visa for my husband, with myself being a British Citizen. Friends had described the process as stressful and we anticipated a similar experience. Upon reviewing the process and documentation online, we realised it was not straightforward.
Our case required the compilation and accumulation of numerous documents, some of which necessitated overseas travel to obtain. Bethannie managed this effortlessly, demonstrating a clear understanding of what needed to be done.
Initially our caseworker was Faycal, who left Westkin early in our process and was replaced by Wale, who was equally helpful and easy to work with. Once all the engagement requirements were complete and Bethannie assumed responsibility, our experience became highly rewarding. Bethannie guided us through the process, with comprehensive and easily understandable explanations. She was exceptionally clear about the requirements, timelines, and potential outcomes. She transformed any stressful situation and made it seem like a walk in the park, and we always concluded our meetings feeling relaxed and reassured. Bethannie earned our trust from the outset with her open, confident and honest communication, which remained consistent throughout the process.
We always felt we were in the best and most capable hands and Bethannie exceeded our expectations. We paid an additional fee to expedite our visa, expecting it to take 30 business days. However, we received a successful outcome just 10 business days after biometrics. I firmly believe this was due to the meticulous manner in which Bethannie prepared our case and the professional submission letter she authored.

As a professional accustomed to writing reports and legal documents, I must say I could not have written the submission letter with the same level of professionalism and content as Bethannie did. Both my husband and I were extremely impressed and left in awe.

When the time comes time to apply for ILR there is no doubt in our minds, that Bethannie will be the one we seek to assist us. 5 stars are certainly insufficient to rate this capable and delightful person.

If you engage Westkin Law / Westkin & Associates, for immigration services, insist on Bethannie Cooper. If she is not immediately available, she is certainly worth the wait.

I could not have asked for better…

I could not have asked for better service than I received from Westkin . One of their staff spent a lot of time on the phone answering my questions even before I signed on as a client making an application for UK citizenship. My advisor was very experienced, knowledgeable, personable, and kind. If I had a query, she would pick up the phone or get back to me later that day. She really knew her Home Office, exactly what documents were needed, what types of professionals could act as guarantors (she gave me a fuller answer than I found on the internet myself), how to quickly access my land registry certificate, etc Her help took much of the stress and worry out of the application. I received citizenship within the time frame she had estimated, which ended up being about 4 months from the completion of the application. I would most certainly recommend Westkin.

Very satisfied customer for the second time

We have just used Westkin for the second time, this time for my wife's spouse visa extension, which was successful.
Just like the first time, the service from Westkin is first class, and they make the whole process so easy for the client.
Special mention to Jamie Baltazar who handled the process from start to finish. She is very competant in her job and very thorough, making sure that no mistakes are made.
Just like the first time we used Westkin, we would highly recommend them to anybody that needs them for immigration matters.

Exceptional Service and Expertise – Highly Recommend!

After my initial unmarried partner visa application was rejected by another agency, I was left feeling hopeless and frustrated. However, finding Westkin and Bethannie completely turned things around for me. From the very beginning, Bethannie’s professionalism, knowledge, and attention to detail were unmatched. She took the time to have frequent calls with us and thoroughly explained the legislation, which was something the previous agency failed to do.

Thanks to her expertise, we were able to successfully reapply for the visa, and I’ve now been granted it! I can continue living with my partner in the UK, and I couldn’t be more relieved. Looking back, I truly wish I’d chosen Westkin from the start to avoid the mistakes and costs I experienced with the first agency.

I highly recommend Bethannie and the team at Westkin. They went above and beyond, and I’m incredibly grateful for their help in making this process as smooth as possible.

I had a great experience with Dan and Westkin

I had an exceptional experience with Westkin, particularly with Dan, who was assigned as my company’s lawyer. His expertise and patience in handling our sponsorship license were remarkable. Dan's detailed explanations and thorough knowledge of the law instilled confidence throughout the process, ensuring the successful handling of both the sponsorship license and a visa application for one of our staff members. I will definitely recommend Dan and Westkin to my friends and associates. Dan, you are truly outstanding!

Successful Skilled Work Visa Application

Angel was very instrumental and very helpful in ensuring I had all the necessary documents required to apply for my skilled worker visa considering the limited time I had on my previous visa. Angel together with her team responded quick to mails, gave timely update as the process progressed and above all, they were professional and proved to be a commendable authority in the immigration field. I will definitely recommend Angel and the organisation to anyone willing to ensure their immigration issues get sorted successfully without hassle.
