OUR APPROACH
Certainty on cost, quality on every matter
As a small specialist immigration practice we restrict the number of clients we accept. That means Agnes Lai — our principal solicitor with over 20 years’ experience — personally handles your matter from start to finish. Work is never delegated to a junior solicitor, paralegal or unqualified person.
Clients prefer certainty on cost. After we consider the complexity of your case, we aim to agree a fixed fee for the work we undertake. The figures below are a guide only and do not constitute a quote. Home Office application fees, the immigration health surcharge and other disbursements are not included.

HOW FEES WORK
What’s included — and what isn’t
No VAT on our fees
Agreed fees exclude VAT, disbursements, Home Office fees and the immigration health surcharge. We do not charge VAT on our fees; VAT may apply to some disbursements (currently 20%).
Admin & file copies
A standard £40 administrative fee covers photocopying a file copy of the application and supporting documents. Extra bundles are £30 each.
Payment on account
Half the agreed fee is required on account before work starts. The balance (and any agreed extras) is due at least 7 working days before submission.
Outside the fixed fee
Fixed fees cover one application only — not reapplications, post-submission work, administrative or judicial review, tribunal appeals, or third-party liaison (e.g. an MP). Calls outside the retainer: £25. Urgent unforeseeable work: £250/hour.
THE WORK
What we do on your application
A major part of our role is risk management — applying expertise so issues are dealt with inside the application, not on appeal.
- Detailed discussion of your circumstances and the best route
- Advice on the Immigration Rules and how you meet them
- Review and organisation of supporting evidence
- Help obtaining further evidence where needed
- Drafting statements, forms and legal representations
- Preparing the application bundle and guidance on next steps
