Decades of UK immigration expertise. Expert legal advice in the processing of UK visa applications, extensions and advice for UK settlement options.
Our experienced immigration specialists provide support to private individuals.
Our expertise includes advising on:
We offer a full end-to-end visa application service which involves assessing your eligibility for the visa, advising on and reviewing the required documents, drafting any supporting letters and assisting with administrative tasks such as booking the biometric appointment.
We can help you apply for a sponsor licence, which you need to hire foreign nationals. We offer a full service or a document review service. We can also do a pre-licence audit to make sure you understand the compliance requirements.
We offer a fixed-price audit to make sure you are complying with your sponsor duties. This includes reviewing your right to work checks to prevent illegal working and your HR systems to make sure you have the correct documents and processes for all employees. This is especially helpful if the Home Office notifies you (or shows up unannounced, which they are allowed to do) that they are coming to your business to do an official audit.
We can provide training on a range of compliance issues, including completing right to work checks, navigating the Sponsor Management System, and advising on the documents that need to be kept on file for each employee. If you have any specific training requests, we can accommodate them and provide a customized session for you.
There are certain policies and procedures that employers need to follow when hiring foreign nationals. These include right to work check policies and monitoring visa expiry dates. We can review your current policies and advise on their effectiveness, or we can work with you to create new documentation.
We can provide a full service to help you with the visa application process for any new hires, whether they are inside or outside the UK, and current employees who are extending their visas. We offer an end-to-end service and can liaise directly with your employees to ensure a smooth process. Alternatively, we can offer an ad hoc review of key documents before you submit your visa application.
Being a sponsor is a big responsibility. We can provide training and advice on the compliance requirements to help you maintain your A-rating licence.
If you want to start a business in the UK for the first time, you may be eligible for a start-up visa. To be eligible, you need to have an innovative, viable, and scalable business idea that is supported by an endorsing body approved by the Home Office.
We can help you connect with an endorsing body and discuss your eligibility. Once you have been endorsed, we can help you with the visa application process. This includes reviewing and advising on your documents.
Â
The start-up visa is not a route to settlement, but you may be able to switch to the innovator visa after 2 years.
The innovator visa is for people who want to start a business in the UK based on an innovative, viable, and scalable business idea. You must also have at least £50,000 to invest in the business and hold a key role in the day-to-day management and development of the business.
We can help you connect with an endorsing body and discuss your eligibility. Once you have been endorsed, we can help you with the visa application process. This includes reviewing and advising on your documents.
We work with endorsing bodies and can provide a full visa application service for both the start-up and innovator visas. This includes reviewing and advising on your documents, as well as liaising with the Home Office on your behalf.
