Immigration law is an incredibly fast-changing and complex area of law. Successive changes to law and policy and the advent of Brexit means that it is harder for people to meet the criteria for many immigration applications and immigration routes to enter or remain in the UK are rapidly changing and evolving.
We assist with a full range of personal immigration matters both within and outside of the UK’s immigration points-based system ranging from advising in relation to Tier 1 (Investor), Tier 2 (General) and Tier 2 (Intra-Company Transfer) visa applications, to advising on indefinite leave to remain (ILR), British citizenship naturalisation and registration applications and on applications filed under the European Economic Area (EEA) Regulations and the Government’s new EU Settlement Scheme.
We also advise on interlinked immigration and employment and family law matters encompassing the curtailment of UK visas following the termination of employment and inter-country adoption, inter-country surrogacy and the sole responsibility of children in relation to the UK’s Immigration Rules.
We provide a full range of client-tailored services and bespoke advice on personal immigration law matters to ensure that your application is filed compliant with the ever-changing immigration landscape.
Whether you are seeking a UK visa to enter, remain or settle permanently in the UK, we can assist you. If you have any query regarding immigration to the UK, please contact us using the enquiry details and one of our highly experienced UK Immigration Lawyers will be in contact with you as soon as possible.
