Do not be afraid to ask questions, and if some of the replies do not make sense because of the legal jargon that they use, ask them to explain themselves in more detail. Different agents have different specialities, so it is important to make sure that you speak to agents that are highly experienced in your required field of expertise. When you have finished you will need to go away and have a think about which migration agent you feel it would be best to use for your application.

With this information, your quote, and what you gained from the initial consultation, you will be able to make an informed decision and choose your migration agent.
