FAQ
The most common: (1) Letter of Invitation for a foreign family member to visit you in the UK, (2) Attestation to be drafted and notarised for administrative purposes, (3) Search for a UK birth, marriage or death certificate in General Register Office archives, (4) Visitor visa support file preparation (without immigration advice itself). For other needs, describe your situation and I send a custom quote.
I prepare the documentation supporting your application (Letter of Invitation, accommodation attestation, organised financial proofs, etc.) BUT I don't provide immigration advice myself as FrancoLegal isn't IAA-accredited. For visa strategy advice, I refer to an IAA or OISC partner. This transparency protects you.
Free initial discussion (email or phone) to understand your need. Detailed quote within 24 hours. No commitment before quote signature. This approach avoids surprises and allows precise calibration.
For old UK civil status records (births pre-1980, marriages pre-1995, etc.), search in General Register Office (GRO) archives is required. My service includes: (1) search qualification, (2) GRO request submission, (3) tracking, (4) receipt and dispatch. GRO fees £11/document at your cost.
