⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Best solicitors with out a doubt, Arshad and Victoria did more than they needed to. After having a bad experience with a previous solicitor I had big doubts and I was shocked at how good the service was with this premium solicitors that I was kinda in denial and doubted them a lot. They gave me more time than they had to, answers the 1 million questions I kept asking and never made it about the money. After just receiving the approved application of my daughter right of abode, I wouldn’t go anywhere else, this is how you should run a solicitor business. Me and my family will forever be greatful. Thank you so much.

Mr Arshad Mahmoud is one of the best immigration solicitors I have ever consulted. We mannered and very knowledgeable.
Google Review By S Mathe
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I highly recommend booking a consultation with Arshad/Premium Solicitors, before applying for any visa, even if you're confident in your own abilities. In my experience, he stood out as the best solicitor, genuinely willing to help and sympathizing with my situation. Unlike other solicitors I contacted, he provided vital and useful information after my query before I had even decided I was going to make a booking, even at the risk of losing a potential client. While it's understandable that solicitors should be compensated for their services, the financial challenges many of us face make it crucial to ensure that our money is well-spent and valuable.
Arshad and his team at premium solicitors are now the only solicitors I trust and will continue to rely on in the future. If only I had approached him earlier, I would be in a much better position now. Despite months of researching case guidelines, I still missed important details because immigration laws are constantly evolving and accessing up-to-date information can be difficult.
If you're on the verge of submitting your application, I urge you to book a consultation with Arshad and have him review your documents, as even minor errors can have costly consequences.
Arshad, thank you sincerely for your invaluable assistance.

Google Review By Davyd Amirov
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
It so happened that I had to deal with many lawyers recently. That would be 5-10... I've found Arshad Mahmood, as they had short notice consultations available at the time that I needed. From the first conversation there wasn't a single query he didn't address fully, honestly and in a clear manner. My experience is beyond any expectations!
In a super stressful situation, Mr. Arshad suggested straight to the point, reliable and realistic options for me and my close relative. Without hiding any nuances or offering nonsensical useless choices/information which is too often the case, unfortunately. On the contrary, he pointed out important aspects relevant to my case, which did make a difference and saved me a lot of time and money. Although my matter is not an easy one, he found as much time as was needed, understanding my circumstances.
Can’t thank enough Premium Solicitors. Additionally, working 7 days a week is a great advantage, for which I’m grateful as well. Thank you, Davyd Amirov
