Sally is a genuine pleasure to work with!

Sally is a genuine pleasure to work with! She's done a brilliant job of keeping us informed at every step of the extension application process and it has been a great relief to know we are in such capable hands. We are very glad to continue working with OTB for our eventual application for ILR/settled status and could not be more pleased with Sally and her firm.

Lydia was incredibly efficient and easy to work with

Lydia was incredibly efficient and easy to work with and I will be recommending her to anyone else that needs help with this process in the future. My visa not only came with the result that I wanted, it was approved in a much quicker time than I would have ever expected and it's all thanks to Lydia! She is an asset to any team and OTB is very lucky to have her 🙂 Thanks Lydia and OTB!

I was very impressed with their comprehensive understanding of Home Office systems and procedures

I worked closely with OTB Legal who were helping a multi-national company carry out a sponsor licence compliance audit. I was very impressed with their comprehensive understanding of Home Office systems and procedures. More importantly, they were very easy to work with and struck an excellent balance between the constraints of the rules and pragmatism.

Best Immigration Solicitor I have worked with so far!

Mark has given me clear advice, was very professional and had excellent communication during the whole process. I had 2 applications with him and both results were positive. I will be working with him on my future applications.

Citizenship by discretion thanks to persistent professionalism

Emma came highly recommended to us and certainly worked incredibly hard on our case and my son got his citizenship by discretion. Thanks to her tenacious approach, her persistence in dotting the i's and crossing the ts; I have a very proud now-British son! On a personal level, I have my human rights back and we can travel away from this country so that I am able to find work again. Emma made this all possible, in an amazingly short time.

Truly Exceeded Our Expectations!

My partner and I faced significant challenges with our UK visa application due to our status as a couple in a country where homosexuality is illegal. Despite the odds stacked against us, Emma's expertise and unwavering support made the impossible possible. Her meticulous guidance and insightful advice navigated us through the complexities of the immigration process, ultimately resulting in a successful outcome. I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone in need of immigration assistance.

Professional, accurate, organised, consistent and approachable

My children and I are now residents in UK. We received our ILR after Emma Cohen helped us with all our applications and did it brilliantly. I can't thank Emma and OTB legal enough for their service. Emma is very professional, accurate, organised, consistent and approachable. Everything was done in a timely manner which meant less stress for us. Emma managed every single requirement that we had to provide and the progress for each item to be completed.

What are the costs of Moving to the UK from USA?

The cost to move from the USA to the UK depends on which visa route you are eligible for, as each category has its own Home Office fees, healthcare surcharge and potential legal costs. Work and business visas can be more expensive, while family routes vary depending on your circumstances. To help you understand the likely costs and the best pathway for your situation, we offer a free initial consultation. Alternatively, you can choose a premium consultation, which guarantees you a solicitor with a minimum of 10 years’ experience in UK immigration law, giving you the strongest possible start to your application. The premium consultation has a fee of £330.

Why should I choose OTB Legal for my free consultation?

At OTB Legal we are proud to be listed as the leading immigration lawyers across the UK. Our immigration law free consultations give you an honest assessment of your application from a friendly and knowledgeable lawyer with experience in helping those move from the UK.

How do I know which team to choose for my immigration law free consultation?

Our lawyers specialise in certain areas of immigration law – they are not generalists as many lawyers are. If you choose a meeting with a team who does not specialise in your case type, please don’t worry. All bookings are reviewed before being confirmed and our paralegals will move the appointment to another team if this is appropriate.

When will I be charged for immigration advice?

If you are looking for representation with an immigration application, you will never be charged for the free consultation. We will always be transparent with future fees being agreed with you well in advance of chargeable work being carried out. Our initial consultation will clearly set out our costs, any Home Office application fees which may apply plus another costs which may apply to you in a clear way which puts you in control of when chargeable work starts for you.

Alternatively, if you are looking to make an application yourself and have some specific questions that you would like answered, or you are unsure about whether there are any applications that would be suitable for your circumstances, we charge £180 (plus VAT of £36 where applicable) for the initial appointment. If you then go ahead with an advice package, this £180 fee will be deducted from the cost of any subsequent advice package.

If you choose to book our Premium Consultation, this is a paid appointment. The Premium Consultation costs £330 and provides fast‑tracked access to a senior immigration lawyer with over a decade of specialist experience. This option is ideal if your case is complex, time‑sensitive, or you prefer senior‑level oversight from the outset. As this is a premium service, the consultation fee is not deducted from future representation fees.
