I cannot thank Mr.Christos enough for their incredible help in getting my family reunion visa approved. My case had been stuck for months, and I felt completely hopeless. However, Mr.Christos was very professional, knowledgeable, and persistent throughout the entire process. He kept me updated at every step and took essential steps to ensure that I get my visa approved.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Meenu, for your thoughtful and kind review!

His persistence and commitment truly reflect the care we aim to provide every client. If you ever need further assistance, we’re always here to help. Best regards, The S&E Team
Daniel L.
We worked with Schlun & Elseven, specifically Julie Schäfer, on a §5 StAG German citizenship application, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. This process isn’t just about paperwork - it’s also about discovering your family’s history and reconnecting with your roots. Julie and her team understood that and treated our case with both professionalism and genuine care.

At first, we thought my mother’s German records would be enough, but the BVA requested additional documentation on my grandparents, which threw us for a loop. Julie was on top of it immediately, guiding us through tracking down the records and ensuring everything was presented as strongly as possible.

Beyond their expertise, what really stood out was how adept they were at problem-solving and how consistently they overdelivered. Every challenge that came up was handled quickly, efficiently, and with a reassuring level of confidence. Julie and her team kept us informed, responded quickly, and made a stressful process much smoother.

If you’re applying under §5 StAG or any other German citizenship route, I highly recommend working with Schlun & Elseven and Julie Schäfer. They are not only experts but also truly understand the human side of this journey, making them the perfect team to have in your corner.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Daniel, for taking the time to share such a thoughtful and detailed review. We’re truly honored that you chose Schlun & Elseven – and in particular, Julie Schäfer – to support your §5 StAG citizenship application. It means a great deal to hear that Julie and the team were able to combine professionalism with care, and help you navigate both the legal and emotional aspects of reconnecting with your family’s history. We’re especially pleased to know that, despite the challenges, you felt supported and well-guided every step of the way. Should you or your family need anything further in the future, we’re always here for you. Best regards, The S&E Team
