I was recommended Riaz by a friend, and I am so glad I was because he made the whole Spouse Visa process so easy and stress free for us. He was with us every step of the way and always so helpful. We got my husband's Spouse Visa in 17 working days which was amazing! We look forward to working with Riaz again for our renewal!
I highly recommend this solicitor firm for anyone applying for a spouse visa. Their service was excellent from start to finish and they made the whole journey smooth and stress-free. They kept us informed every step of the way, clearly explaining the process and always being available to help with any questions we had. The team were professional, polite, and very friendly throughout. They have also successfully assisted my mother and father-in-law with their applications, which shows how trustworthy and reliable they are. Their rates are very reasonable for the high level of service they provide.

I am extremely grateful to Shahista at Sterling Shore for her outstanding support and guidance throughout my visa application process. This was the second time I used her services, and once again my application was successful. Shahista is highly knowledgeable, professional, and always approachable.

More importantly she was very patient throughout the process with us, which I really appreciated. Her dedication and attention to detail truly set her apart. I would highly recommend Shahista and the team at Sterling Shore to anyone seeking reliable and expert immigration advice.

The questions people ask us most before appointing a UK immigration solicitor.
Costs depend on what you're applying for and how complex your case is. We'll always talk you through your options first and give you a clear fixed fee before any work starts, so you know exactly what you're paying and why, with no hidden extras.
Yes. This is one of the most common reasons people contact us. We'll listen to your situation, check the details, and explain the best route for you in plain English, whether that's a visa, extension, settlement, citizenship, or help after a refusal.
It varies by route, but you won't be left guessing. We give you a simple, tailored checklist and explain what each document is for. If you're missing something, we'll tell you what alternatives are acceptable and help you get your evidence into the right shape.
Timelines depend on the Home Office and the type of application, but we'll give you a realistic expectation from day one. If you're up against a deadline or need a fast decision, we'll act quickly and guide you through priority or urgent options where available.
A refusal happens more often than people realise, and it's usually fixable. We'll review what went wrong, explain your options clearly, and build a stronger case for reapplication, administrative review, or appeal, so you're not facing it alone.
Only if you want to. Most cases can be handled fully by phone, email, or video call, which is often quicker and easier. If an in-person appointment would help, we're happy to arrange one.
People across the UK come to Sterling Shore for clear, specialist help with visas, settlement, citizenship and refusals. Tell us about your situation and we'll review it, explain your best next step, and book you in with the right solicitor.
