Why It Matters

Immigration Deadlines Are Unforgiving

An immigration refusal often comes with a very short window to act, sometimes just 14 days. Miss it, and you may lose the right to challenge the decision altogether. That is why speaking to a specialist barrister early can be the single most important step you take.

  • Fast assessment of your refusal and realistic options.
  • Strict deadline tracking so nothing is missed.
  • Direct representation at tribunal by the barrister advising you.
  • Honest prospects advice before you spend on an appeal.

Answers

Immigration Questions

What is a Public Access immigration barrister?
A Public Access barrister is a specialist advocate you can instruct directly, without going through a solicitor first. For immigration matters this means specialist advice and representation, often at lower cost, dealing with the barrister who will actually handle your case.
How long do I have to appeal an immigration refusal?
Deadlines are strict and depend on the decision. Many in-country appeals must be lodged within 14 days of the decision, and out-of-country appeals within 28 days. Because missing the deadline can end your case, contact a barrister as soon as you receive a refusal.
Can you help with a Skilled Worker visa refusal?
Yes. We advise on Skilled Worker eligibility, salary and sponsorship requirements, administrative review of refusals, and appeals or judicial review where a refusal is unlawful or wrong in law.
Do I have to attend chambers in person?
Not necessarily. Many consultations can be held by phone or video, and documents can be shared securely. For clients across the UK and overseas this makes specialist advice easy to access.
