Flat repossession

I have found Minha Jamil at OTS Solicitors very professional in the way she handled my case which was getting back possession of my flat.
A section 21 notice was served and the entire process was straightforward and stress free.
Promptly answered any queries without delay.
Thanks Minha.
Richard Keane.

Rakesh Patel is an amazing solicitor who helped us through an extremely critical immigration situation and challenge. We had consulted other solicitors as well, but nobody could figure out the problem, which Rakesh P. did instantly. The entire process is also very seamless and hassle-free. They are professional, organised and worth the money.

I applied my travel document using my skilled worker visa with OTS solicitors. They are really helpful. You can call them during office hours to book the appointment initially to discuss your matter.
They also have a website where you can leave your concern and questions in case you have an emergency during our of hours.

Especially, my solicitor, Rakesh Patal was really nice. He helped me throughout my difficulty journey. He tried to find any alternative ways to sort it out my case.

Their presentation and expertise report on your case is very important. Without their help, home office will not grant the travel document.

I gueninuely recommend the OTS solicitors to represent your case to home office.

Thank you so much.

Professional and Polite

From the outset, my solicitor, Ilan Braha, clearly explained the legal process in straightforward terms. He handled my case with professionalism and thorough attention to detail, which ultimately led to a positive outcome. I am very grateful for his support and would highly recommend OTS Solicitors.

Poor experience all round

I engaged OTS Solicitors 1st March 2025 for a housing matter and paid £268 for an initial consultation, followed by £900 for what was described as a straightforward letter with a 14-day turnaround.

What followed was a prolonged and frustrating experience marked by poor quality work, inconsistent case handling, bad communication and a lack of basic attention to detail.

My case was passed between multiple individuals over several months, including after the original solicitor left the firm, with no clear ownership at any stage.

Communication was consistently poor, and I was repeatedly required to chase for updates, often receiving no response for extended periods.

The initial draft provided was of a very poor standard, containing factual inaccuracies and failing to reflect the information I had supplied. Despite providing detailed corrections on more than one occasion, progress remained slow and disjointed.

A task described as “straightforward”, a basic letter to a housing association ultimately took approximately seven months to complete.

Most concerning, the final letter appears to have been sent to an incorrect email address. When I identified and raised this issue, provided the correct contact details, and requested confirmation that it would be resent, I received no response.

Overall, I paid over £1,100 for a service that involved significant delays, substandard work, inconsistent handling, and avoidable errors that directly impacted the outcome.

Based on my experience, I do not rate or recommend this firm. Its been a waste of, money, time and energy dealing with them.

I highly recommend OTS Solicitors

I highly recommend OTS Solicitors. They are extremely knowledgeable and clearly take great pride in the level of care they provide to their clients. Their professionalism, expertise, and genuine understanding of my situation truly stood out.

A special thank you to Rakesh Patel and the team at OTS, who were incredibly supportive throughout the process. Rakesh assisted me in dealing with the Home Office regarding my sponsorship matters and provided clear guidance and reassurance at every stage.

Thank you once again for your excellent service and support.

Very fast and successful outcome

I requested assistance to OTS Solicitors to obtain my settled status. I was assisted by Ms Manvir Uppal who was very attentive, helpful and answered very quickly to all my emails. I am very happy that my application was successful. I am living abroad at the moment, but I had received the outcome in two days. I’m really grateful to Ms Manvir Uppal who I believe is an asset to the firm. Thank you

In general it’s a good service but I wouldn’t recommend just based on the price.

The solicitor was good. One time the solicitor was on leave and I had an urgent matter to discuss with them. I called the central line to get support they said the person was on leave and there’s nothing they can do. I was expecting more professionalism in notifying me about going on leave, or assigning my case to someone else while they were away. I was very nervous and felt helpless until the solicitor came back. That is not something you’d want or expect when you pay large sums.

The service was successful but giving them 3 stars to improve customer care.

Excellent help for spouse visa application

Nollienne was great. Ifter a brief phone call, we scheduled a consultation in which we discussed the circumstances of our application. Due to me not working in the UK and earning a salary in dollars, Nollienne was able to advise me on the best approach and the required supporting documents to help my wife's spouse visa application successful.

My wife and I met Ms Manvir Uppal to assist us to apply for E visa . We were told before such a process takes months .
Ms. Manvir Uppal completed our application on a Thursday and we got our E visa on Monday. We were really happy and thrilled.
We think the organized and professional way Ms. Manvir works has yielded in such a successful outcome.
We are very thankful to her and to OTS to have such a talented solicitor.

AVOID Behzad if your case is not simple

I instructed Behzad Sharmin in 2022 to assist me with my divorce case during an extremely challenging period in my life, as I was recovering from childbirth and caring for a two-month-old baby. Unfortunately, what was already an emotionally and physically taxing time became even more distressing due to Ms. Sharmin’s handling of my case.

During my initial consultation with Ms. Sharmin, she assured me that she would be able to support me with the divorce proceedings, draft a compelling statement demonstrating my ex-husband’s fault—supported by evidence—and assist me in securing child maintenance. As someone going through this process for the first time, I was unaware that establishing fault in the breakdown of a marriage holds little legal weight, nor was I informed that I could independently contact the Child Maintenance Service. It was only much later, after I inquired, that she advised me to handle the child maintenance process myself—information that could have been shared at the outset.

Shortly after I instructed her, I informed her that all of my personal belongings—including my passport, bank card, driver’s licence, and baby’s essentials—were still at my ex-husband’s residence. Her reaction was one of surprise and concern, and she remarked, “Why didn’t you tell me this before?” I had no idea this would be perceived as an issue, and it further highlighted to me that she may be better suited to handling simpler, more straightforward cases.

Despite retaining her services, I found myself having to draft the majority of the emails to the opposing party and prepare my own statements—tasks that I had engaged her to manage on my behalf. Her draft communications contained significant and concerning errors. For example, one email mistakenly stated that I was attempting to reclaim my house, when in fact it was my car—an error that could have had serious repercussions had it been sent without correction.

When I raised this issue with Ms. Sharmin and explained the intense pressure I was under as a first-time mother navigating a legal process, her response was simply that the emails were drafts. I expressed that, at the very least, she should have reviewed them more carefully before forwarding them to me. This response, combined with the repeated errors, left me with no confidence in her professional abilities.

Although I attempted to transfer my case to another solicitor within the firm, I was informed by Ms. Sharmin that no other family solicitors were available. I felt trapped and unsupported.

After seven long months, I personally drafted an email for Ms. Sharmin to send to the opposing party, asserting that, now that the divorce had been granted, it was a criminal offence for my ex-husband to withhold my belongings, and that I would involve the police if they were not returned. I had obtained this legal information through my own research. Only then were my possessions finally returned to me.

In summary, I felt that Ms. Sharmin’s service lacked the necessary diligence, guidance, and clarity that one should expect from a legal professional, particularly when representing a vulnerable client during such a pivotal and difficult period.

Truly professional experience

I had the good fortune of having Dhaya as my solicitor. She was always available and professional from start to finish.
There is no way I would have been able to get through this process without her insight and knowledge.
I am happy to report that I have now obtained British Citizenship-all thanks to Dhaya and her team at OTS Solicitors

I would highly recommend OTS Solicitors to anyone. From the moment I booked a consultation with one of their team members, Reshmi, to the actual meeting with the solicitor, I felt confident and reassured. I knew right away that I could trust the team!
