Your Local Immigration Lawyer in Leicester
Leicester is a vibrant city where people from around the world come together. With over 70 languages spoken and nearly six out of ten residents from ethnic minority backgrounds, it is a place of rich diversity and opportunity. If you are navigating the UK immigration system, whether settling near Braunstone Park, studying at De Montfort University, working in local industries, or reuniting with family in areas like Highfields or Belgrave, the process can seem complex and time-consuming.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.It was a long 10 ten years journey, started with renewing my visa every two and a half years, followed by my indefinite leave to remain, ending with my citizenship. Bushra made this journey easy and successful. She always reassured me and gave me the best advice. She is so professional, knowledgeable and friendly. With the great efforts of Bushra and Hannah, the process went smooth and easy. I will never forget her empathy and care . I definitely recommend Bushra’s services and I wish her and her team a bright future.

Chris Wachira
Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.My experience with my previous solicitors was not so positive. My previous solicitor did not take me through the Immigration Rules thoroughly and explain how they impacted my potential application. Instead, the solicitor went ahead and made an application on my behalf and the application went on to be refused because as the Home Office stated, I did not meet all of the requirements. I felt scammed by that solicitor. Had the solicitor taken me through the impact of the Immigration Rules to my situation thoroughly and advised me correctly, I would not have made my application for settlement at that time as I would have understood that I did not qualify. I then came to Bushra Ali Solicitors. I had heard that Bushra Ali Solicitors do not leave any stone unturned to get you your desired outcome but also at the same time, are very frank, clear and transparent in advising as to whether your situation meets the requirements or not. The advice that I received at Bushra Ali Solicitors was thorough and explained to me in terms I could understand. I understood I did not qualify for settlement straight away but there was another route under which I could make an application which would eventually take me to the path to settlement. I felt very confident in the advice that I was receiving from Bushra. I found her to be very straight to the point. She did not fluff things up or make things look better than they were but clearly told me where further evidence was required and where and how I could make my potential application stronger. I really liked their way of working. Bushra Ali Solicitors handled my matter remotely which meant that I was able to attend my appointments via Zoom and did not need to take time off work or to spend time travelling to their office. I was recently granted indefinite leave to remain which was a huge relief and a great weight off my shoulders. I felt I had been in limbo for so long but finally, I was now free from immigration control. Immigration was no longer a problem for me and I could now focus on other aspects of my life and work to build a positive future for myself. I am very thankful to Bushra Ali Solicitors. I would not hesitate to recommend instructing Bushra Ali Solicitors as they are absolute specialists in complex matters with a lengthy and convoluted immigration history.

I cannot overstate how kind, professional and empathetic Bushra and Hannah have been. Bushra got me through a very difficult time legally and successfully got me through to the end of the process. She is highly knowledgeable and specialised in human rights issues and importantly, shows consistent care and empathy for her clients. I have no reservation in recommending her services to anyone in need of legal services.
