Johnson Brock

Dr. Taroni, Has guided me, in what I find to be a very circuitous and subjective process, with SUCCESS! Bernard has assisted her and been a huge help in clarifying each next step.

Choose this firm for your success

with this review, I would like to extend my gratitude to Miss Zoe Bantleman and Marianne Schonle.

and for others who are reading this review and thinking ''To be or not to be''...
please read my review thoroughly and you will know what to do....

Before I met Miss Zoe Bantleman my case was pending before First Tier tribunal My previous Pakistani solicitor representative firm wasted mine time and money for almost three years and produced me no result. It was really depressing time for me, to even make a decision about changing my representative. Then I have come across so many positive review in google and trustpilot and I have made one of the best decision to contact Richmond chamber and arranging appointment with non other than Miss Zoe Bantleman.

After my first initial meeting with her she explained me all pros and cons, given me a detailed summary of case and what she possibly can do to win this for me in tribunal. she has also provided me my all available option in written via email on very same day.

She took the case just before a month of tribunal date. She also helped me to get my file back and transferred from previous solicitor without much hustle. Her skeleton argument was awesome and she is a real gem in Richmond Chambers, She has a wide knowledge of immigration patches & loose end, A giant of her own field who knows how to cross any hurdles for their client but above all Zoe is a polite and down to earth person, benevolence by nature, consistent in her work & strictly professional at all time.

without Zoe Bantleman & Marianne Schonle I would not have won my tribunal case nor I have gotten mine ILR card today. I am thankful to both of them and Richmond chambers to keeping such a gem in their firms.

My recommendation for every one is to at least meet and discuss your case with Zoe Bantleman or Mariaane schonle before you decide to go with some other firm and spoil it.

I sincerely want to thank Richmond Chambers for the help and excellent work they have started and completed with me this year. This time it'll be about immigration Barrister Zoe Bantleman and Legal Associate Marianne Schonle. They did a great proffesional job and succeeded, and through the wall way they were attentive, patient, careful and even kind. In the moments of confusion from the problems and challenges it is very important.
One thing more has to be added about the whole team (this summer barristers Paul Richmond and Georgina Griggs had been working and succeed as well with my case of the overseas media representative's visa): I've never experienced any arrogance or professional fatigue from anyone of the team. This is very important and priceless quality!
Thank you all very much and have a great time in the new year!
With my deep respect,
Eugenia Dillendorf

Excellent service from Paul Richmond and Georgina Griggs

We’ve used Richmond Chambers ever since I’ve first decided to move to the UK after my marriage. Everything went swiftly and they were very knowledgeable and organized. We’ve used them 3 times now and they’ve been excellent. I highly recommend anyone who doesn’t want the hassle of having to make sure you’ve got everything right by yourself and risk leaving anything out to them.

They knew exactly what we needed and made my Indefinite leave to remain (set M), much easier than if we did it ourselves.

You won’t go wrong with them!

EEA Residence Card Application

Very grateful to Dr Catherine Taroni for her assistance with my relative's EEA Residence Card application on the basis of being an extended family member. Dr Taroni has been assisting my relative with her application for the past few months and has always been kind enough to promptly reply to any questions we had, even after the application was submitted with UKVI. What I and my relative were most impressed about was Dr Taroni's knowledge of EU and UK law, her attention to detail and her willingness to go above and beyond in dealing with my relative's complicated case (at times working and responding to our emails/questions even while on holiday!). My relative's application was approved yesterday (in just 2 months' time) when UKVI usually takes at least 3-4 months to respond and at times 6 or more months for complicated cases. It is all thanks to her hard-work, preparing a 500 page bundle to submit to UKVI. I've met a few lawyers/barristers in the past but have never come across one more professional, knowledgeable, approachable and patient than Dr Taroni. If you require immigration legal advice, I would highly recommend Dr Taroni and Richmond Chambers. Catherine is definitely one of the best barristers in Immigration Law that you will ever come across in the UK.

Thank you for your professional attitude and detailed attention...

I would like to thank Paul and Annie at Richmond Chambers for their throughout help and guidance during my whole application process for Sole Representative visa, which is not trivial and quite complicated. Since the very beginning I was explained my immigration case in full, always received complete and timely responses to my inquiries and had a positive decision on my immigration visa. They managed to turn stressful and vague application process to calm and straightforward. I’m glad that I turned to Richmond Chambers, particularly to Paul and Annie, and experienced their professional attitude and detailed attention to my case and would highly recommend Richmond Chambers to any prospective clients.

I would like to share my experience of working with Richmond Chambers and in particular Catherine Taroni. Catherine handled my brother’s appeal case to bring his wife over to the UK. The bundle prepared and the grounds for appeal was very impressive. No stone was left unturned. Catherine went over and above our expectations. Due to her high level and high quality work the appeal was allowed.

I would highly recommend the firm for any immigration matters.

Professionalism and excellent support…

Professionalism and excellent support by the team of Richmond Chambers, specially Zoe. She did excellent job for managing and sorting out all my husband’s documents and write up an impressive ground for our case, I do believe for her hard work only my husband got his ILR. Thank you very much, Zoe, for having taken my husband’s ILR case so carefully and bring the expected result and on time. I impressed on her performance and wish her more success in her profession. It is important to know who put in the hands of these important and so sensitive processes, I am very satisfied with her work. Definitely recommend my friends and support seekers for their immigration needs to use Richmond Chambers.

My successful ILR Application

What a blessing indeed to have found Geraldine Peterson from Richmond Chambers to help me process my ILR for the UK. She was very thorough all through out the process. Made sure everything is in order, organized and complete. She provided the peace of mind i needed in what could be a stressful ordeal that is immigration. And to Jasmine and Sam who has assisted in making this a very successful application. More power to you all!!!

Recommendation of Zoe Bantleman

We hired Zoe Bantleman at relatively short notice to appear at the Upper Tribunal.

Apart from achieving the desired result, Zoe demonstrated the finest combination of marshalling information and advocacy which we have ever witnessed.

The opposing advocate clearly had no riposte to her.

We would recommend Zoe fulsomely and without hesitation to any Instructing Solicitor
