Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT) Appeal – Greg Lawler

“I would like to thank Mark Duggan of GMP Migration Partners for the invaluable help offered to me and my husband while we were applying for our Partner visa and subsequent successful appeal to the Migration Review Tribunal.  

Despite the complex and complicated situation we were in, you were willing to take on our case and help us with the application of our partner visa and subsequent appeal to the Migration Review Tribunal.

Throughout the process you was very supportive. When our partner visa was refused, it was encouraging to know that we could rely on you when we needed you the most. It was the darkest time of our lives and we had lost all hope.

We simply couldn’t have done it without your extensive knowledge and expertise with the immigration laws and policies. You were always available to answer any questions we had throughout the process.  It was so kind of you to travel to meet us and discuss any issues we had prior to the hearing. I also felt encouraged when you gave us other options of visas that we could apply for in the event that we would be unsuccessful at the MRT, and you were willing to help us through this process.  Thankfully we were successful at the Tribunal with your help.

I would definitely recommend you to other people who require migration advice and services.

Thank you very very much”
