Our expert team of immigration lawyers, based in Edinburgh and Glasgow, can help solve your immigration issues quickly and cost effectively. Immigration law changes frequently and it can be difficult to keep up to date. A small error in an application might prevent you from being allowed entry to the UK or could result in your being without leave to remain here.

How we can help you

While the Home Office has tried to make them simpler, visa applications remain as complicated as ever. Most have strict rules for evidence, meaning you’ll have to carefully consider different sections and provide multiple guidance documents. Accuracy is extremely important, and minor issues can result in delays and complications. The last thing you and your family need is to be in a state of uncertainty while you await a decision. Our team is here to prevent that from happening. We’ll help you make sense of it all and speed up your application journey.

Our service consists of a single, 45-minute meeting with one of our immigration solicitors. They are highly experienced in every aspect of immigration law. This means that (regardless of your type of application) you’ll always be speaking to someone with specialised expertise.

After discussing your circumstances, we’ll identify the best visa option for you—how you can meet the requirements, and your long-term prospects for remaining in the UK.

The meeting can take place in our Edinburgh or Glasgow office, and (if you can’t travel), we can via our secure video link facility. 

During the meeting, we’ll answer any questions you may have, and highlight the next steps for making a successful visa application. 

After your meeting, we’ll send you a detailed report tailored to your situation. This will include:

  • Confirmation of our recommended course of action 
  • A summary of the requirements you will need to meet 
  • Practical tips on making a successful application 
  • Estimated timescales 
  • How much it will cost 
  • A guide to your next steps in the process 

We’ve helped many clients with this service, giving them the confidence to make a successful visa application themselves. We also offer additional support and always provide fixed fee packages for you to choose from. 

We can also provide additional support with the application process, so please get in touch with our team to find out how we can assist you.

The firm always provides clear and concise information.

For this firm no question is off limits. It is a great support and explains everything fantastically to both myself and the new employees going through the visa application.

Chambers and Partners

I so wish we had found you sooner. The professionalism, competence, fair fees and excellent customer care you give greatly surpasses what we previously experienced with other major legal firms.

Client feedback

The clarity and quality of advice given was rated as excellent. The firm's service and response time was excellent and we would recommend them. We were kept informed throughout the visa process including all changes that occurred. I do not think we could have navigated the application process on our own. With guidance we were able to apply and I have recently received my approved visa.
