Our Services

UK Immigration & Visa

Navigating the UK’s complex visa landscape requires expert precision. Our dedicated UK immigration and visa solicitors guide individuals, families, and businesses through all application types, from Skilled Worker and Spouse Visas to Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR).

We provide a meticulous eligibility assessment, strategically preparing your evidence and drafting strong legal submissions to the Home Office. Our goal is to ensure a successful outcome on the first attempt, avoiding costly refusals and delays. Trust our expertise to simplify the process and secure your long-term goals in the UK.

Detention & Appeals

Being detained or facing an immigration appeal can be a stressful and uncertain time. Our expert team provides urgent legal assistance for those in detention, challenging unlawful decisions and applying for immigration bail. 

For appeals, we build robust cases, gathering vital evidence, preparing detailed submissions, and providing representation at the First-tier and Upper Tribunals. We fight tirelessly to protect your rights, secure your release, and achieve a successful appeal outcome, guiding you through the complex UK immigration system with clear, pragmatic advice.

Commercial Leases

Whether you are a landlord or a tenant, a Commercial Lease is a critical, long-term commitment that requires meticulous legal scrutiny. We advise on all aspects, including drafting, reviewing, negotiating terms (such as rent reviews, break clauses, and repairing obligations), and managing lease renewals or assignments. 

We advise on the full lease lifecycle for shops, offices, and industrial units. Our goal is to ensure your lease terms are watertight, protect your business interests, and minimise future risks or disputes, enabling you to focus on your commercial success with confidence.

Independent Legal Advice (ILA)

In various high-stakes transactions, particularly those involving guarantees, mortgages (e.g., Joint Borrower Sole Proprietor), or deeds of transfer, a lender or third party will require you to obtain Independent Legal Advice (ILA). 

Our solicitor will meet with you to thoroughly explain the legal implications, the associated risks (including the worst-case scenarios), and your obligations in plain English, certifying that you fully understand the implications before you sign, thus protecting you from future claims of undue influence or lack of comprehension.

Family Law

Family matters require sensitive yet decisive legal guidance. We provide comprehensive support across all areas of Family Law, including divorce, civil partnership dissolution, financial settlements, and child arrangements (custody/contact). Our approach focuses on finding constructive solutions through negotiation or mediation where possible, always prioritising the welfare of any children involved. Where litigation is necessary, we offer strong representation. 

Let us help you navigate separation with compassion and achieve a fair, sustainable future for you and your family.

Wills & Probate

Securing your legacy and planning for the future is essential. Our Wills & Probate service ensures your wealth is protected and distributed according to your wishes. We expertly draft Wills, advise on inheritance tax planning, and create Lasting Powers of Attorney (LPAs).

When a loved one passes away, we handle the complex administrative and legal process of Probate (or administration, if no Will exists). We manage the entire process with sensitivity and efficiency, relieving executors of the administrative burden and ensuring the deceased’s estate is settled smoothly and correctly.

Employment Settlement Agreements

If you have been offered a Settlement Agreement (formerly a Compromise Agreement) by your employer, you need prompt, independent legal advice for it to be legally binding. We provide a swift review of the terms, explaining the implications of waiving your employment claims and ensuring the compensation package is fair. In most cases, the employer covers our legal fees. 

We negotiate key clauses like references and confidentiality to secure the best possible exit terms for your future.

Alternative Dispute Resolution

Court litigation is often costly, time-consuming, and adversarial. Our Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) services—including mediation, arbitration, and negotiation—offer a faster, confidential, and more flexible path to resolving disagreements. We work as your strategic advocate, aiming to reach pragmatic, commercially-sensible settlements without the need for a public court battle. Alternative Dispute Resolution maintains better relationships and gives you more control over the outcome, saving you both time and stress.
