Zarina Rahman exceeds my expectation…

Zarina Rahman exceeds my expectation and won the appeal case of my friend. She has been professional throughout. She is very understanding of clients' situations and was willing to be flexible around. I will always recommend them to anyone that is in need of legal services. She went the extra mile in making sure to help win the case.
Absolutely marvellous and outstanding professionalism.
Thank you so much for all your help!

I am very much thank full to Alexandra pease , Cathrine , Zoe and all who help me in my case and the Richmond chamber team, you guys are dimonds and experts in immigration matters the knowledge,experience and expertise you all have is unimaginable. My case was really complicated EEA(PR)and I was mentally disturbed,after spending nearly 2000ponds on different big name firm on consultations I was hopeless because they don't have any knowledge and confidence in my case , then later I found Richmond chambers online, read all the reviews and I was impressed and decided to go with them. On first meeting I knew that this guys have excellent knowledge and experience, the way they prepare my application and process is mind blowing, they left no stone unturned, ring fence all the corners ,absolutely fantastic ,no word. My case went very smooth and stress free even we went to court without any fear and with full confidence. This is all because the way they prepared the appeal bundle, hats 🎩 off. Thanks guys. Now I am so relaxed and happy . And all the credit goes to the Richmond chamber diamonds 💎. Guys don't waste time and money on any other barristers except this for you immigrants case. I wasted lot of time and money on different big name firm in U.K. But they are not even near to Richmond chambers. Have peace of mind and relax after Richmond chamber take your case, don't worry anything. It's worth every penny you spend. Once again I can't thank enough to you all of you specially Alexandra pease, cathrine and Zoe. Thank for making my live peace full, its means a lot to me . Thank you very much , God Bless You.

Numerous previous refusals - Obtaining a Visit Visa

Excellent service and support provided by both Alex and Zoe. They were extremely helpful and indeed patient with us whilst building a very strong Visa Application following a number of refusals previously.
There are so many companies out there who offer this service however what Richmond Chambers offer was over and beyond on a different league so they are definitely worth the price.
I would not have any hesitation using their services again or indeed recommending them.

Best Barristers ! Highly Recommended

Throughout my case Richard chambers responded to all my queries promptly and efficiently. Whilst during my case I was under immense pressure, I found them extremely easy and professional to deal with. My Barrister Emma Greenwood simplified all processes for me so it was easy for me to follow and I was pleased that I had someone as helpful as Emma who worked on my case.
Emma’s sharp insight and attention to detail facilitated the smooth running of my case on the day of the trial, she took the time to understand me and my circumstances and dealt with it better than I would have ever imagined. Thank you for everything you did for me Emma and I will forever be grateful to you.
I am thrilled with the outcome of my case and it is all down to the professionalism, efficiency and consistent support from Richard Chambers. I would recommend their services to everyone. During the most stressful time in my life they were there to keep my morale high and answer my queries at all times, which is exactly what I would expect from a well established group of individuals such as Richard Chambers.

I would highly recommend Richmond…

I would highly recommend Richmond Chambers to anyone especially Dr Catherine Taroni who dealt with my FTT appeal against the Home Office decision to reject my PR application as an EEA spouse. My case was complicated and 2 other solictors I consulted initially couldn't get their heads around it. Catherine proved to be a real expert in immigration matters relating to EU free movement law and my appeal has been sucessful. I am very happy that I chose Richmond Chambers as my representatives!

My experience was extraordinary

My experience was extraordinary. Most senior Barrister Alexandra Peace has assisted with my EEA retained right of residence application. Although she is most senior at Richmond & Chambers, she was so humble & utterly down to earth.
I had lot of difficulty in arranging all my documents and it took almost 6 months for me do so. She always remained very patient and responsive at all times. Dedicated assistance from one member of staff like "Jantien" made my life so much easier most of the times.
With in 10 weeks I got my residence permit This proves how much interest & efforts were dedicated to my application. The results speak for themselves. I was really amazed and delighted with my experience.
I highly recommend "Richmond & Chambers" & especially "Alex" to everyone who is in need of immigration advice and assistance.

Thank you very very much to Alex, Jantien & all Richmond and Chambers team.

I would definitely recommend Richmond…

I would definitely recommend Richmond Chambers to the others. Dr. Taroni was very friendly and professional. She has given us many pieces of useful advice and explained the legal terms clearly without any confusion. The team was efficient and cautious so there is very little to worry about during the application process.

Highly recommended- Catherine Taroni best for E.U Cases!

Catherine Taroni is excellent. Knowledgeable, calm, patient and efficient. Thank you Catherine for all your help! Highly recommend. Catherine helped me appeal my refusal for a U.K residence card as a family member of an E.U Citizen. I won the appeal, and now have my card in hand!

First class advice & representation

Dr Catherine Taroni provided an absolute first class service in all respects for the appeal process for my wife. She is exceptionally competent, speedy and precise in her legal argumentation and case preparation. In addition, she provided a lot of comfort in terms of explanation of the legal points, process and proceedings. Thank you so much!

Got visa after selecting Richmond Barrister

I am Bangladeshi citizen,entered in UK as a student and spent 7 years as a student .Unfortunately my wife diagnosed cancer and on that time I applied FLR FP showing my wife needs to stay in UK for treatment .I chosen Bangladeshi solicitors to deal with my case .I got refused and had to report to Croydon .Later on I applied section 120 which resulted refuse again.At the end I applied for Judicial Review .I was very lucky because the consultant of my wife was very helpful and she sent medical letters time to time to Home Office and as a result I got in country appeal right .My case became very complex because I chosen wrong barrister.It could be very easier case if I had hired a good Barrister like Alexander peace .The reason I am writing my experience to let Bangladeshi know that you never get the service and result from Bangladeshi lawyer what you can get from Richmond barrister .They destroyed my file and had to suffer a lot for them .
I contacted many barristers ,most of them said I wouldn’t win the appeal .Thanks Allah ,I chosen Richmondbarrister .The service I received from Barr.Alexander Peace is tremendous .Every single penny of mine became worthy.Richmond farm respects their clients .I selected Miss Alexander Peace .She is very knowledgeable and none to other .I am glad she dealt my immigration case.The service I received from her ,can’t explain in words .I was peace of mind ,whenever I contacted her ,she responded me .She never get disturbed and always understood me .She is the only lawyer who asssured me about possibility of winning .And finally I won the appeal ,got discretionary leave with her service .In that process Tania Hardcastle and bar.Emma Green assisted her .They worked very hard and gone extra miles to win the appeal .Emma is so good in arguing against Home office solicitor infront of the Judge.And Tania is so helpful.
From my experience I want to say ,if you want good result so please choose good Barrister like Alexader please and the team .They will do their best for you.All of the barrister in this firm is highly qualified but I would specially recommend Alexander Peace.
I would like to thanks Alex ,Tania and Emma for their hard work.
The service I received from Barrister Alexander Peace is tremendous.She is very professional in her job and has vast knowledge about immigration.

ILR application

ILR application. Although you pay a bit more for the barrister, the service was great, provided accurate advise on immigration laws and although I was requested to collect painful amount of documents, it was worth the effort because it played part in the application. I’d like to pay special thank to Alex and Sophia who had been tirelessly working on my case and spent extra time during the last couple of days before my submission to ensure the quality and legal integrity of my document pack. Thanks a lot, definitely recommend.

Tier 1 Entrepreneur Applicant

As Tier 1 Entrepreneur Applicant and for the last four years I have searched throughout the U.K., seeing and dealing with an array of immigration law specialists, from OISC advisors, solicitors (associate and partner), firms and barrister from Sheffield, Leeds, Manchester, and London.
The complexity of Tier 1 entrepreneur application, the environment at the Home Office and my personal underestimation for these challenges; made me, although a genuine investor, encounter unnecessary and unpleasant tardiness and refusal experiences.
Finally I have been fortunate enough to deal with Paul Richmond and his immigration dedicated team whom not only have the knowledge necessary for such a vigorous process but have an eye for the fine print details in the complexity of the application.
Good luck in your future application, now pick up the phone and sign up with Paul Richmond from Richmond Chambers no matter what the cost is; as your health, your time and your investment worth much more.

The service we received was excellent

The service we received was excellent, patiently explaining the law as it applied to the case and what the possible outcomes could be. Each stage of the application was dealt with great attention to detail and nothing was overlooked. Any queries we had were dealt with in a timely manner and our expectations were managed in a clear and confident way. The fee structure was very clear and straightforward. There were no hidden costs or additional charges. I would wholeheartedly recommend Richmond Chambers to anyone needing first class legal representation in complex immigration matters.

Helpful and professional barristers

Helpful and professional barristers
My review is based on the experience I had with my barrister who represented me in first tier tribunal hearing. I am grateful to him for his professional and kind help. He did work his best to prepare for my case with a full understanding of all the aspects. He has always been there to answer all sorts of queries and replied in a fast and professional manner. I would definitely recommend this firm.

Perfect Immigration Barrister

If you are looking for an immigration Barrister, I urge you to contact Ms Gillian McCall at Richmond Chambers. I had been to several solicitors before coming across Ms Gillian, I wasted so much money at a number of incompetent solicitors, I wasted my time and patience. Richmond Chambers will take care of the entire process of your immigration needs. These guys not only assist from an immigration stand-point; they literally take the burden off you. Ms Gillian McCall and her team are incredibly detailed in the work that they do, their immigration knowledge is superior and the service is second to none.
I was very fortunate that I found you Ms Gillian, When I met Ms Gillian very first time, then I realised, I found the right and best person for my complicated long residence case. I now have an indefinite leave to remain visa and it would not have been possible without Ms Gillian. She is the best person to have at your side in a crisis.
A special thanks to Ms Gillian McCall - your level of service and treatment is of the highest calibre. Thoroughly professional and your help with this has brought a lot of comfort to me.
I have no words to describe my respect for Ms Gillian McCall. She is highly skilled, very informed, professional and has the ability and willingness to explain the process and details to you. She answered very promptly to any questions I had. I highly recommend her services.

Perfection from beginning to end.

My case was not a straight forward case …

My case was not a straight forward case and I was battling with it for the last 4 years going in and out of solicitors who just wasted my time, were not professional and they were more driven by finance, this was having an impact on my personal life as many things were on a hold due to the case. I came across Richmond chambers and due to the negative experience I had been going though I thought it was too good to be true and expensive. However I have to say it is worth EVERY penny.

Our barrister Mr Lawrence guided us through our case, he was supportive, trustworthy and professional. His communication was quick and consistent. Their online documentation system is very easy to use and easily accessible, all your documents are kept in one place. In a nutshell if you are going through any legal case I would recommend Richmond Chambers without hesitation.
