This work covers challenging removal decisions, cancellations of leave or protection, and applications to defer or suspend deportation. A solicitor helps clients prepare representations to the Home Office and to immigration tribunals, file applications for discretionary leave, and advocate at hearings to challenge removal or seek permission to remain, with attention to human rights and asylum arguments where relevant. The work often involves detention considerations, compassionate grounds, and interagency coordination.
What a solicitor handles in these matters
The solicitor collects and organises evidence, negotiates with the Home Office, drafts grounds of appeal or protection claims, and represents the client at the First-tier Tribunal (Immigration and Asylum) and Upper Tribunal, and potentially the Court of Appeal. Practical issues include detention risk, maintaining lawful status, and navigating procedures for deferral, exception waivers, and protection-based relief.
