10 reasons to instruct an immigration barrister
1. We are authorised by the Bar Council of England and Wales to practise as barristers and all our work is conducted in accordance with the Bar Code of Conduct, guaranteeing you the highest standards of legal advice and representation.
2. Because we do not work for a firm, we are completely independent. This means that we will advise you on both the strengths and weaknesses of your case.
3. We have specialist knowledge of case-law and are regularly consulted by immigration solicitors to advise on complex and unusual points of immigration law.
4. If you wish to make an application to the Home Office, we can draft a formal 'counsel's opinion' on the merits of your application. This expert legal opinion will explain to the Home Office why, as immigration barristers, we consider that your application satisfies the requirements of UK immigration law and should be granted.
5. We are trained advocates, with over 10 years experience of arguing immigration appeals at all levels of the courts upto and including the European Court of Human Rights. We have acted in a number of high profile cases.
6. We can represent you all the way from an initial application right through to a final appeal. This guarentees you continuity of representation, and could also save you money. Most other immigration advisors do not have rights of audience in the higher courts and therefore ask their clients to pay extra for a barrister if a case goes to court.
7. We accept a limited number of clients at any time and work with all our clients directly. This means that your case will receive the attention that it deserves.
8. We do not have set business hours. We are available to respond to our clients 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
9. All our work is conducted on a fixed fee basis, with all fees agreed in advance. There are no hourly rates and no hidden extras.
10. Our administrative costs are generally lower than those of other immigration advisors. This means that we can usually pass on genuine and considerable savings to our clients in reduced legal fees.
