I had quite a complex partner visa situation. But Cathal and Karen made the process a lot easier. They knew exactly what needed to be done and our PR was granted in a matter of weeks once we applied. Can’t recommend ALC enough!

I had an incredible experience with ALC Lawyers, and I can’t thank Carol enough for her amazing support throughout my sponsor visa process. From start to finish, everything was seamless! She is highly organized, professional, and clear in their communication.

Cathal and the team were amazing throughout the process of our application for sponsorship. They made everything really easy and were always available for any questions or concerns that we had. They went above and beyond. Highly recommend ALC Lawyers and will 100% be using them for our next visa application when the time comes!
