I did it DIY for my wife and she is a midwife........so saved £000's on using an agent. As long as there isn't much abnormal in your application (step children under 18.....haven't worked in profession for years, aged over 45....etc) I'd use this forum to research what you are doing and how to fill forms out etc....
Check out how many points you have first just on the wife applying as a skilled independent on a 136 visa.....if you meet the mark then fly solo is my advice.
People on here will help you every step. If your swimming in money, then let some other poor sod do it.

You can fill these in, send some money, loads of photos and certified copies of certificates and studies followed and then wait.....
You'll be fine if you pass the points.

Re: beginning the process of emmigration help!!
Saved £000's ...? Our fees for a skilled visa where the main applicant is a nurse total £800 (plus VAT) ...
Also, I'd not assume that because you found the process straightfoward others will too ...
Best regards.
