⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Truly Exceptional Experience

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Truly Exceptional Experience — Again — with Breytenbach

Better late than never — I’ve been meaning to share my experience with Breytenbach, especially as I’m still waiting for a final response from the Home Office. This is my second time working with their team, and once again they have shown exactly why I returned.

Dr. Chiara Mancuso has been nothing short of extraordinary. She approached my immigration issue with empathy, determination, and a refusal to accept “no” as an answer. Her never‑die attitude kept me grounded through a stressful process, and her commitment to finding solutions is unmatched.

A heartfelt thank you also goes to Talha, her assistant, whose professionalism and consistent support made everything smoother. He kept communication clear, timely, and always made sure I felt supported.

I also want to acknowledge JP, the owner, for stepping in and offering his help. His involvement reminded me why Breytenbach stands out — they genuinely care, they fight for their clients, and they stay with you every step of the way.

Even while I’m still waiting on the Home Office, I know I couldn’t have chosen a better team. Breytenbach has my full trust, and I recommend them wholeheartedly.
Thank you Dr Mancuso, Talha and JP.

Regards,
Karen

I would highly recommend Breytenbach’s services. They are friendly, helpful, and professional throughout the entire process. They assisted me with my ancestral visa and, more recently, my indefinite leave to remain. The process was relatively stress-free, and I can’t imagine how long or complicated it would have been to do it all myself. This applies to both the London and Pretoria offices.

Thank you all very much for your hard work and assistance.

I have used BIC for the last 10 years. For visitor visas, spousal visas, ILR visas and now finally my Citizenship. BIC have been there every step of the way and I have received the same phenomenal service over the last decade. They are friendly, thorough and professional. No question is too silly.

Applying for visas etc. is so stressful, costly and time consuming but with BIC there is peace of mind. They know what they are doing and they get it right, the first time, every time.
