Immigration advice

We offer free legal advice on immigration status cases.

We offer free legal advice and representation on immigration cases.

If you live in London and cannot afford to pay for legal advice on immigration we may be able to help. We can provide free accredited immigration advice and representation.

In line with our organisational strategy, we prioritise supporting children and families.

We will always try to help as many people as we can but demand for our services is very high. We would always encourage people looking for advice to contact multiple accredited providers to see if they can help with their case. You can use our tool below to check if your case meets our basic criteria. This will provide details of next steps for accessing our service.

Our immigration advice service is accredited by Immigration Advice Authority (IAA) and SQM.

We also have a legal aid contract to do asylum and immigration work.
