Immigration 

We are very transparent about our fees. Most of the straightforward cases we are able to make a fixed fee agreement. However, our fees are primarily calculated using an hourly rate, which is set according to our fee earners’ knowledge and expertise. Please refer to our fee earning categories.

Our existing hourly rates range (excluding Asylum Application):

• £282 for solicitors over 8 years post qualification experience
• £232 for solicitors and legal executives with over 4 years’ experience
• £185 for other solicitors and legal executives and other staff of equivalent experience
• £129 for trainee solicitors, trainee legal executives and other staff of equivalent

On average, this type of work takes between 3-6 hours to complete. This means that on average costs are between £750 and £1,500.

All figures do not include VAT unless specifically stated as we are not VAT registered but we are happy to discuss our fees directly with you to give approximate costs based on your individual circumstances, including the complexity of your case as well as the level of service you require.

We have set out some conventional application fees that we normally undertake. Our fees range only deal with the office-based work and exclude in person attendance at the home office or any interview. Should you require any of these additional services, we are happy to discuss and quote our additional fees. This fee covers submitting your application to the Home Office for consideration and not additional work.

In addition, this fee also does not cover any other disbursements. Disbursements mean and include expenses such as Home Office fees, Court fees, Counsel’s fees and travelling expenses that we have to pay on your behalf. Further costs will be incurred in respect of any additional or complex work required and we shall discuss these with you should that situation arise.

We are not registered with the VAT but some of the Home Office applications require to pay VAT in addition to our fees. We will notify you in advance where VAT is applicable.
