London Immigration Solicitors
The variety of our clients and the range of cases we handle mean the London immigration solicitors at Luqmani Thompson & Partners appeal to a wide cross-section of people seeking expert advice on both personal and business immigration as well as human rights law. We regularly advise the following groups:
- Skilled migrants making applications under points-based system applications
- Employers of migrants and educational institutions in applications for sponsorship licenses as well as general regulatory compliance
- Overseas students appealing against Home Office decisions to refuse leave to remain
- European Union citizens and their family members seeking residence documentation or clarification on their rights and entitlements under Community law
- People who have been in the UK for long periods who wish to regularise their immigration status on the basis of long residence, family life or compassionate grounds
- People who the UK Border Agency are taking steps to deport or remove to their country of origin
- Clients making asylum and protection claims
Our solicitors’ focus on immigration and human rights means they are alert to the fine detail of an area of law that changes frequently.

Funding
We believe there are few other areas of law where the repercussions of a poorly made application or a failure to observe time limits are more serious than for our immigration law clients. Increasingly we represent people who, in the absence of legal aid, recognise the value of quality legal advice in this area and we offer a transparent fee structure. Against a background of cuts in state funding for legal services, a very small proportion of our work still continues to be legally aided.
