I had a very comlex british settlement case, but I was lucky to use OTS solicitors, they made the case that was looking impossible possible.
special mention goes to Mr Hans Sok Appadu and Mr Tomar Bahja they were both outstanding and exceptional.
my case was refused at the first hearing at the first tribunal, but Mr Hans Sok Appadu and Mr Tomar Bahja kept telling me do not worrie we have a good case, we will appeal the decision.
we did appeal the decision to the high court and the appeal was accepted.
Mr Hans Sok Appadu and Mr Tomar Bahja conducted my case with great care and professionalism, they were effeicient and very reliable, I was being updated on my case efficientley and was given a world class service.
I would highly recommend them to everybody.

I met Nollienne Alparaque back in 2019, as she had successfully helped one of our family friends secure their mother’s immigration appeal before the First Tier Immigration Tribunal. At that time, I knew she had a brilliant mind and a big heart for Filipino migrants in the U.K. I didn’t fully comprehend that my mother would face the same circumstances as my family friend after my mother’s visa application was denied by the Home Office. I then called Nollienne and asked for her assistance via the OTS Solicitor, who helped me with my mother’s immigration appeal without any hesitation. As I had expected, Nollienne demonstrated excellent communication skills and possessed brilliant legal expertise, managing to overturn the Home Office decision. She employed an excellent barrister to defend my mother’s case, and my mother secured her visa to remain in the U.K. for us to look after her. Without Nollienne and the OTS Solicitor, this would not have been possible. Thank you so much Nollienne and OTS Solicitor and more power to you all! Case Workers: Nollienne Alparaque
OTS were very helpful throughout the entirety of the process. Thank you so much for helping me and my wife with a successful Spouse Visa application. Reshmi was particularly helpful with answering all of my questions and verifying our paperwork. I would highly recommend, and use OTS again. Additionally, they offer good value for money compared to some other immigration lawyers. Case Workers: Reshmi Chowdhury
OH dear OTS with Hans and his team are super. They assisted me greatly with my immigration documentations and i was so happy with the final result. Hans is so prompt with reverting with answers to queries. Hans shows a lot of professionalism in his job and he is very proactive in dealing with urgent issues which occurs during the process. He has a great legal knowledge pertaining to meeting our needs. The team is very proactive and efficient in processing immigration issues above all they show friendliness and their approach is welcoming when it comes to their services. We are ever ready to recommend their services to everybody and to anybody who might need their help
We have received an outstanding service from Nollienne who ensured that my husband’s settlement visa application is expedited to be able to travel to the UK on time for the birth of our baby girl. Many thanks to Nollienne and to the whole OTS Solicitors team. Case Workers: Nollienne Alparaque
I want to express my gratitude for the exceptional support provided by Sanae Sahebjalal, in my family extension visa application. Sanae demonstrated an impressive level of professionalism, making the intricate process seamless and stress-free. Her clear communication, attention to detail, and proactive approach ensured I was well-informed at every step. What truly sets Sanae apart is her genuine empathy and dedication. She not only understands the legal aspects but also cares deeply about the well-being of her clients and their families. A heartfelt thank you, Sanae, for your unwavering dedication and support.
