      Being Old School, when it comes to doing business with someone I like to look them in the eye and seal the deal with a handshake, so doing an immigration process online was a complete anathema to me, but everything worked out fine with a positive result. Lara Akinlude provided all the information required in an efficient and timely manner and was always available to answer any questions that we had. The immigration information supplied was clear and concise with a detailed timescale to keep the ball rolling. Ultimately, the proof of the pudding is in the eating so my wife and I are extremely pleased and grateful for the service provided by Lara and would not hesitate to recommend Larhdel Law in future.

Lara and Co. were very helpful in navigating our family move to the UK. It was a complicated time due to UK Gov being stressed by the Ukrainian refugee crisis however she kept advocating for us until the Visas were granted. Also we paid an expedite fee, and as service levels weren’t met (by Immigration Dept) Lara also successfully petitioned for a rebate of all expedite fee! A good experience therefore.
