After much research of different "agencies" met with questionable results (watch out for scams), my girlfriend and I recently had a consultation with Jennifer Stevens, a partner at this firm. We couldn't be happier with the outcome! We needed help with UK visa applications. Jennifer is clearly an expert in UK immigration with years of experience and a gift for clear communication. She put us at ease-we realized after the call that we were making the process more difficult than it needs to be.

She was also quick with a recommendation for someone to help with areas outside of immigration that we may need help with. I highly recommend Jennifer and am posting this review in NY and London for both offices.
