  • Testimonials:

    “We had trouble applying for my wife’s visa application and it was rejected, so fortunately we found Maud Foxley at Richmond Chambers. She is very professional and has a keen eye for detail, but still very kind and approachable. Thankfully, because of her hard work we are now living our dream in England. I highly recommend this firm if you want positive results.”

    “I recently had the pleasure of being represented by Richmond Chambers LLP for my UK citizenship application, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome. The level of support and professionalism displayed by the team, especially Alexandra Pease and Maud Foxley, was truly exceptional. Alexandra and Maud’s dedication to my case was palpable, taking the time to understand every detail of my situation and explaining the complexities of immigration law in a way that made sense to me. Their approach was not only professional but also incredibly personalised, which made all the difference. Every step of the way, Alexandra and Maud were proactive, transparent, and reassuring. They ensured that every document was perfect and that I was prepared for each phase of the application process. Their communication was exemplary, keeping me informed and at ease amidst the daunting legal procedures. Choosing Richmond Chambers LLP and having Alexandra and Maud as my barristers was the best decision I could have made. Dreams come true and Alexandra and Maud made it possible. Their commitment have been nothing short of impressive. I highly recommend their services to anyone seeking legal representation in immigration matters. Thank you, Richmond Chambers, for making such a significant impact on my life and for helping me start this new chapter in my life.”
