Stay away from this Den of Con artists
Money hungry and morally bankrupt Two words to describe and define Imperium Chambers aptly and succinctly to a T following my experience with them would be precisely this Money hungry and Morally bankrupt I called the office this evening having spoken with Dasha a week back on the Fri 6th as I hadn t heard back from Mr Turner as promised coming up to a fortnight now Dasha s reply to me on the afternoon being As discussed I will speak to Mr Turner A further week having gone by and still not having heard ANYTHING when I call the office on both numbers this evening what do I receive A feigned silence with NO answer and very conveniently and most frustratingly being directed to voicemail on the five attempts made by me to contact the office this evening to know what was happening have some clarity and a truthful answer as to why I hadn t yet heard from Mr Turner in over a fortnight since his mail to me on the Fri saying he would reply on the Monday however yet to hear anything back a fortnight later Imperium Chambers have had my money with the initial payment made Oct 15th for coming up to now TWO months They have done NOTHING with regards to my case since taking initial payment All I ve received when trying to call front desk for any clarity with regards to my case has been a lot of lip and attitude particularly from Ash with NOTHING substantive whatsoever being done about my case And now they are shamefully and most abhorrently holding onto my payment with Mr Turner going MIA and no one else giving any clarity on the situation What I d asked during my initial paid conference I still haven t had ALL they are ever concerned about IS payment They haven t an ounce of decency or integrity amongst themselves for how they ve left me in the lurch in an already angst ridden situation I hope they realize and know holding onto someone s payment in this manner having done nothing as was promised at the start will always yield a due payback and can never be a blessing unto their lives I hope they know that It truly is utterly shameful to deliberately and knowingly behave this way I never expected such from a law firm with Mr Turner at the helm for the level of trust placed in him at my initial meeting with him only for him to not deliver and come through keep his word as promised It is a red flag one NOT to ignore when a firm does not have in place a transparent complaints procedure as other law firms do it needing to be gotten apparently on email request only for no one at front desk to bother to reply to any pressing queries in a timely and effective manner Any time you call the office and if you happen to get through all you can ever expect and get from Dasha is This call is being recorded Umm I will speak to Paul and see where we are here That IS all you can and will ever get from her You can be assured not to expect the matter to be followed up or anything constructive actually done by her about your query And if you were to call again you can only ever expect the same cock and bull story being spun to you and a repeat of lame pathetic excuses being made and put to you A word of advice Mr Turner When someone takes the time and makes the effort to send you a mail you ought to have the basic the very basic thought and decency to actually reply to the mail It shows nothing but a lack of basic manners and decency when you behave so It ought to come as no surprise then if any level of professional embarrassment is caused when you choose to knowingly behave and act so Anyone in your position as a supposed direct-access barrister ought to know such without needing to be told You ridiculed my previous legal adviser Please know You are behaving worse x10 worse NEVER expected such of you I quietly and patiently waited for SO long only to have nothing of a reply or a response whatsoever as promised from Mr Turner The silence speaks volumes in and of itself indicating none other than culpability and an unspoken admission of guilt having NO defense to present to any of the queries put forth in my mail sent on the Thursday a fortnight back Nov 28th That IS all this beguiling silence from Mr Turner speaks and says I had NO desire or interest to post an unfavourable online review simply out of regard and choosing to be gracious However after being pushed from pillar to post and taken advantage of in this way in an already very fraught and vulnerable situation one is left with no choice but to do so Mr Turner and Imperium Chambers will not know what has hit them when the matter is being duly escalated and referred to the Bar Standards Board and the Legal Ombudsman There should be accountability when at the receiving end of such shockingly fraudulent behaviour and manner of response from a registered law firm

Deplorable
Paul and his team have ruined my immigration case he never did anything he promised me in his initial conference His team is as useless as him they don t know what is the case about and treat every case the same the appeal bundle they created could have been prepared by a 10 years old they never proof read my witness statement I was charged for the copy of the appeal bundle to be supplied to me which is till date not given to me They ignored over 100 calls and did not prepare my bundle appropriately The people I dealt with are Paul Ash Dasha Malik KarishaPaul He doesn t communicate with the client at all including calls texts emails even though he promised me in the initial conference he would stay in touch meet me 10 days before the hearing and he would be doing all the legal work by himself and promised me again he would be in-touch when he took the payment from me This was his tactic to hook me on in his con and take the money from me The office never knows what they need to do and Paul stays out of contact with them too My file was prepared by his office team who had no clue what Paul had promised me in the conference and they added unnecessary documents which has caused delays in the process On the day of hearing when I was expecting him to answer my questions as he has not been in contact since he took the payment and I expected him to be prepared to fight for me in the court He came to the court late at 11 45am and instead of finding a conference room to discuss my case with me he was worried about leaving the court at 2Pm and went straight to the reception asking them to arrange things for him so he can leave at 2pm as he has to reach London by 3PM and pick his child up from school When reception told him he is late and it is not possible to guarantee they can fit my case before 2pm he starting convincing me to adjourn my hearing and ask for it to be relisted I was shocked at his disorganised conduct He had charged me 1200 for that hearing and he had audacity to ask me to adjourn it and expect to be relisted in 4 months time I had clearly told Paul in the initial conference I am not looking to drag my case as I have not visited my family for good 7 years I want to go ahead with this appeal hearing and I do not wish to go to Upper Tribunal or any other court if the appeal did not succeed He was extremely unprofessional and was only focused on getting back to London at 3pm even though he had charged me for the whole day 10AM till 4PM Ash She separates herself from any matters and can never resolve any issue she is good at making false promises too Dasha She never knows what s going on and has to ask the client to call back which will not be answered for next few days Malik Ask him a simple thing and he will complicate it and mess it like a pro the guy is missing from the office for over a month and surprisingly he is the only one who knows where my file is and even after paying the admin charge for that file to be returned to me nobody can return me that file Karisha Very good at defending Paul s mess and has no interest in listening to client s

Horrible experience
Deplorable I have to agree with everything stated by Ammar Ashique in the review posted below It has been my very same experience Stay away from this den of cons if you want to keep your sanity in what is an already very challenging situation I placed great faith in Mr Turner during my initial paid meeting with him only for him to prove NOT to be a man of his word After making initial payment they have done NOTHING absolutely NOTHING with regards to my case Those in the office are most rude and disrespectful giving a lot of lip and attitude when you try to seek any clarity with regards to your case Mr Turner NEVER responds or replies to any emails messages does not keep in contact with his office staff and No One knows what the heck is happening They are all too happy to take your payment and then DO NOTHING They will cause you nothing but a world of grief I m not one to post unfavourable online reviews but how they have treated and handled my case since taking initial payment is nothing but shameful and abhorrent Mr Turner promised me a reply to my mail for Mon Dec 2nd Its to be a fortnight now and I m yet to have anything of a response Yet SO very shamefully holding onto my payment It s like Mr Paul Turner has gone MIA I chose IC unwittingly based on the online reviews but I could and would NOT recommend them to anyone following my experience with them Avoid them like the plague if you want to keep your peace and maintain your sanity in already difficult circumstances I WILL be referring the matter to the Bar Standards Board Truly and utterly shameful Equates to none other than daylight robbery when a law firm takes payment and then does not keep to their initial word of promise to work ardently and with diligence on your behalf Shameful

The services which I received by Paul
The services which I received by Paul Turner is unprincipled and negligent by not putting the appeal in court on time Paul is agreed that part of the delay to put the appeal not on time was happened from him I have evidences to prove that Public must aware their rights so that they can complaint in the Bar council or Legal Ombudsman about any barrister bad services It will depend which organisation will look your complaint Public can also take their barristers bad services to the court and can make a claim of their damages His assistants have no control over his clients application in case of Paul unavailability or they are not expert to put his client appeal on time and wait till Paul comes Vulnerable people please beware of them

Stay Away
Stay well clear of Mr Turner and his firm ie Imperium Chambers Nothing but a money hungry and morally bankrupt firm A reprobate lot Don t be gullible and fooled by the initial meeting As other reviews have stated Mr Turner will fail to reply and even so much as acknowledge your mails after initial payment received And his front of desk staff are the most impolite discourteous and rude that I ve met They will cause you nothing but undue needless angst in an already angst ridden situation as they have me I regret deeply choosing to see him when I did Stay and steer well clear of them if you cherish your sanctity of mind and spirit

I would like to strongly recommend
I would like to strongly recommend Imperium Chambers where the whole team have been an incredible help with submitting my complex case After losing all hope I had decided to come to Mr Paul Turner and I would like to sing his praises as he has provided nothing short of brilliant services from start to finish He is an admirable barrister Mr Turner has outstanding talent and knowledge for handling extremely complex cases such as my own He thoroughly analyses each case giving the proper care attention to detail and critical breakdown for the case all whilst being reassuring firm honest and providing solutions He is a very honest and straight forward individual and you can tell he builds a great rapport with each client and actively listens to each case He has a good heart and I can state how my previous experiences have been disappointing where I have had poor legal advice and I was deceived and misguided by others Mr Turner s knowledge commitment delivery and execution are absolutely world class I must say Mr Turner and his team were always highly professional respectful and well prepared The highlight of my experience was during my court hearing where Mr Turner showed great dedication towards my case His knowledge about the Immigration rules and law is undoubtedly excellent and with his outstanding presentation his virtue persuaded the judge and we won my appeal and he saved me Mr Turner will never let his clients down I would also like to give a big warm thank you to Mr Kim Mr Nick and Mr Waqar whom all provided exceptional care and guidance throughout this case Mr Waqar has been an amazing guide all throughout handling my case He is a great supporter when it comes to me understanding the paper work and complications about the case by answering my calls and explaining each change in the case and all legal jargon Moreover Waqar is very efficient always kept me updated about my appeal by explaining what documents were required the proceedings and the current situation all whilst ensuring I was prepared to the best of my ability and in an efficient and timely manner The credit especially goes to Mr Paul Turner and Mr Waqar who both greatly supported me in every step The whole thing ran very smoothly and this resulted in the desired outcome which was winning my case Prior to my previous experiences I can definitely say that Mr Paul is the best barrister in the country I am very satisfied compared to the other people who have dealt with my case previously Highly recommended every penny will be worth it Nadia M Ali
