Samar Shams

I help companies and individuals move the UK and around the world. My years of experience include responsibility for immigration knowledge for an international firm in the City of London. My expertise in this notoriously complex and changing field is therefore detailed and practical.

I assist companies in setting up in the UK and with sponsoring skilled workers. I have a strong track record of helping companies ensure compliance with sponsorship and right to work requirements.

I engage with policy makers and stakeholders on immigration issues. I regularly speak and write on immigration and future of work topics and I am an expert trainer.

“Samar is a really pro-active and skilled advisor. She helped us in immigration matters better than anyone else. I warmly recommend Samar in all immigration processes. She’s a real key contact and she’s the right person to help a new company who would like to setup operations in London or in the UK.”

“Samar made the application process as smooth and painless as I could have wished for. That my application succeeded in record time is no doubt thanks to her excellent offices. I recommend her in the strongest terms.”

“Samar is so approachable, obviously very knowledgeable and very kind.”

“great trainer” “excellent presenter” “very informative and easy to understand”
