Since it opened in 2015, OTS Solicitors has had a clear mission and simple core values. They remain as relevant in 2025 as they were 10 years ago: • Provide clear, comprehensive legal advice; and • Offer personalised legal services of the highest quality. These core values enable the firm to deliver exceptional legal expertise, and a bespoke, cost-effective service tailored to the unique needs of each business, individual, or family. With a strong emphasis on client care and fee transparency, OTS Solicitors earned recognition in The Legal 500 just two years after its establishment, followed by a ranking in Chambers and Partners. Each client – whether they need immigration advice on joining a spouse in the UK, applying for an adult dependant visa for an elderly parent, or are dealing with the stress of divorce and securing a fair financial settlement – is assigned a dedicated lawyer for personalised support and advice. That approach ensures its service is streamlined and efficient, and has helped make OTS Solicitors the best immigration and family law firm. OTS Solicitors now provides specialist business and personal immigration services, as well as assisting individuals with all their family law, employment, litigation, and landlord and tenant needs. The firm’s approach to client service is straightforward; they ask themselves what they would want from an immigration lawyer or family lawyer and provide the sort of service that they would hope to receive. The firm offers tailored guidance to clients seeking support with immigration matters, including family visas, sponsor licences, and skilled worker visas, as well as specialist family law advice. This may involve questions about signing a prenuptial agreement, deciding where to initiate divorce proceedings and understanding the potential impact on future financial settlements. The company prioritises engaging with its clients and believes in tackling challenges head-on. That involves embracing the good bits of AI and technology but not placing over-reliance on digitalisation when clients want to hear a human voice providing legal advice nuanced to their circumstances rather than using AI software. The SME was set up by siblings, Oshin and Teni Shahiean, with recent entrepreneurial experience. This combined with many of their lawyers coming from a migrant background, their empathy and understanding of start-up challenges and the journey from new arrival to British citizenship sets them apart from many of their competitors. Teni shared: “We have a diverse and energetic team, representing various backgrounds and fuelled by a zeal to provide exceptional service and challenge unjust decisions. To us, it's personal, and we use that distinction to our clients’ advantage, using our empathy to ensure clients receive the compassionate service they deserve.” Growing up as siblings means the firm’s management decisions are seamless. As business partners, they know their strengths and work together to provide a cost-effective client service that is second to none. Teni told us the most rewarding aspect of working in the legal profession is the variety of clients: “Advising on visas, settlement in the UK and all the family law issues associated with global clients, ranging from international divorce, high net worth financial settlements and growing families through overseas adoption, international surrogacy and reunification on family visas, means we generally have clients who are either delighted or relieved by what we have been able to achieve for them.” OTS Solicitors’ dedication to providing the most sophisticated yet fairly priced range of legal services has positioned it at the very forefront of its kind in Southern England. The firm’s plans for 2025 and beyond involve expanding its family department to meet the demand for its family law services, and we’re sure to see the team succeed well into the future ahead.
