Immigration

Our Immigration Team provides expert advice and assistance with the full range of immigration matters, including both personal and business immigration. Whilst we do not undertake what is commonly referred to as 'legal aid work', we are able to offer a consultation with the team at the fixed fee of £300 plus VAT.
We advise businesses and individuals on the general Immigration Rules including the Points Based System as well as applications under the EEA/EU regime. Our areas of expertise include:
Spouse, fiancée and partner visa applications
Visitors visa applications
Child migrant and family reunion visa applications (including dependent relative visas)
Tier 1 visa applications (investor, entrepreneur or graduate entrepreneur)
Tier 2 migrant working visa applications
Tier 2 sponsor’s licences
Tier 2 applications for sportspersons
Tier 2 intra-company transfers
Tier 4 student visa applications
EEA and EU free movement applications (including for extended family members)
Sole representative visa applications for overseas businesses
British Citizenship
Human Rights applications; particularly under Article 8 of the European Convention of Human Rights
Our team draws on a variety of expertise and as such is able to provide advice on how to set up a business in the UK, how to sponsor employees and the relevant licenses required. We also advise students, colleges, high schools and universities. We are able to advise on applications from both within and outside the United Kingdom and deal with any appeals including judicial review. The team also benefits from the experience of head of the team Tim Cary; who was appointed as a part-time Immigration Judge in 1997, sitting in London.
