Thank You Westkin law for your help in successfully resolving our case with the UKVI. We first contacted Jayesh... Jethwa and he gave an excellent and professional overview of the situation. Lizama Thahir took control of our case -ably assisted by Nayla Ayub- and from the very first to the last showed a degree of knowledge and dedication to this very difficult case which was above and beyond the call of duty.
This is by far the best solicitor expirience in our thirty five year corporate history. Indeed we were moved to praise them as soon as submission was complete and before our unconditional re-instatement to the UKVI Sponsor Register (from which we had been suspended) because we felt that the outcome of the case was not relevant or indicative of the excellence of the work that had preceded.
It was a bonus and a just outcome that the appeal was wholly successfull. We will have no hesitation whatsoever in highly recommnending this team to any corporate or any individual .

The service we have experienced from Westkin Associates has been nothing but first class. I was at first tempted to... hire immigration solicitors who were charging slightly less money, however after speaking to a representative from Westkin Associates I had a good feeling about the company. I was then assigned Andreea as my case worker who offered a very personal approach yet maintaining the utmost in professionalism. It was an absolute pleasure in dealing with Andreea as she was always prompt whenever we had arranged a telephone conversation, giving me the confidence that she cared about her work. Please do not hesitate in using Westkin Associates as I'm confident you won't be let down.read more

Westkin Associates are not just Immigration lawyers but a family you can rely and count on even when the chips are... down. Against all odds after our daughter was refused clearance to come to the UK with her young sister and brother, Michael Marziano took over our appeal case. It was a great experience and we received great service, which was the best. Michael effectively and clearly communicated with us throughout the entire process and made everything easy and fast. Michael showed his expertise in all immigration areas as he answered all our questions and concerns. We highly recommend anyone facing challenges with their visa application to place their trust with Westkin Associates. As I am writing this review, our daughter has just received her clearance to join us as a family in the UK, thanks to Michael and Westkin Associates for a fantastic job well done.read more

My family and I had opted for Westkin Associates to prepare our application because we had previously worked with them... for our visa issues. Recently, our visa application has been approved and it went well very smoothly without a hitch. Our caseworker Sandra was brilliant, liaising with us back and forth for gathering all the necessary documents and advising us on all the options on the table. I would highly recommend Westkin Associates to anyone who has been frustrated by UK immigration rules and by any unexpected circumstances. Thanks once again to Westkin Associates for their hard work!
