Top 10 of 1,171 law firms for Discretionary Applications, Immigration Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Discretionary applications cover cases where a decision-maker has power to decide based on factors beyond the formal criteria, such as humanitarian or compassionate grounds, exceptional circumstances, or discretionary leave. A solicitor practises by assessing eligibility, compiling and presenting evidence, drafting submissions, and advising on alternatives if refused. They liaise with the Home Office and UK Visas and Immigration, review policy and case law, and coordinate any follow-up steps, including possible appeals or further submissions, to safeguard the client’s immigration position.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

The solicitor explains the legal framework and the specific discretionary grounds, identifies potential gaps in evidence, gathers supporting documents, and prepares a robust, structured case for the decision-maker. They handle correspondence with the Home Office, organise timelines, and advise on strategic options within the discretionary scheme, recognising that outcomes hinge on merits, policy evolution, and evidential thresholds rather than fixed criteria.

We contacted Manpreet after receiving a refusal for a visit visa. Manpreet was very helpful throughout the whole process and gave clear and concise advice. In the end our visa application was successful. We would highly recommend Manpreet to all of our family and friends for any Immigration related matter.

We were recommended Fisher Jones Greenwood by our retiring Immigration Lawyer. The recommendation did not disappoint. The advice received was clear, complete and understandable. The service provided was proactive, timely and efficient. Will definitely use FJG when the Visa needs renewing. Would highly recommend.

Stéphane Gentili

Tagged solicitor Stéphane Gentili

We’re a family from Bangladesh. Mr Stephane Gentili helped me and my family with our complicating immigration case. I have known him for 8 years. He is one of the most committed and dedicated immigration lawyers I’ve ever met. He is someone that lives for helping people through difficult immigration situations; explaining your case in detail, representing thoroughly and fighting your corner to the best of his ability. Additionally, his presentation and communication are totally outstanding and expectational. It is so well presented and outlined thus, it is remarkably so easy to understand although, it is also truly very effective in challenging your case. I can honestly say that I’ve been to many legal advisors, but I haven’t met many similar to Stephane. He does everything in his power to help his clients and stays in contact all the time to update you and reassure you so you're not constantly worried. A truly great immigration advisor and a lovely person in general. I would strongly recommend “Gentili Stark Solicitors” from personal experience for whatever immigration problem you have. Stephane is best placed to advise/direct you in the right direction.
