Costs and Disbursements
Our costs are worked out on a ‘fixed fee basis’ after we discuss your case and are aware of all the potential the work involved. We work on an ‘agreed fixed fee’ basis and will agree our cost with you before we start any work on your matter. At the outset of the instruction, we will inform you in writing of the extent of our instruction in the matter, for example up to the first substantive decision from the Home Office.
In case the Home Office refuses your case then any advice and assistance in relation to an appeal, administrative review application or Judicial Review is likely to be a separate matter under a separate ‘agreed fixed fee’ basis.
Disbursements are expenses that relate to the application but are paid to outside agencies for example the barrister’s fee to represent you in relation to court and tribunal matters, experts fee for producing reports, the home office fee and immigration health surcharge fee, or interpreter fee.
Our costs do not include the Disbursements as set out above including the Home Office application fees which you pay directly to the Home Office as part of the application process. We will inform you of the disbursement cost and obtain your agreement before incurring the cost on your behalf.

How long will it take to complete my case
For us to prepare and submit your case is dependent upon a number of factors, new or existing client, visa expiry deadlines, client providing us with supporting documents to allow us to carry out our work. Normally we can complete our work within 2 to 4 weeks from taking instruction.
We cannot guarantee how long the Home Office will take to make a decision on your case. The Home Office has issued service standard guidelines for some application types. Neither can we guarantee how the immigration courts will take to issue their decision.
