Appeals - Frequently Asked Questions
Do you work on a No-Win No-Fee basis for appeals?
No. We work on a Fixed-Fee basis for all appeal work. We will provide a quote for our fees at the beginning, prior to any work being undertaken on the file. We do not cover legal aid work. I have been refused a visa to enter the UK. Can I appeal from outside the UK?
You can lodge an appeal from outside the UK; it is still the same process. Do not submit any forms without consulting us as it will need legal argument and points of law covered. What are my chances of winning this appeal?
This does depend on the circumstances that surround each case. Some appeals are more complex than others. However, every case must be fully supported with the correct evidence. It may not be in your best interests to appeal and we may suggest a new case is better. We will give an honest assessment of your case. Do I have to use a legal firm? Can I lodge the appeal myself?
Whilst you do not have to use a legal professional for an appeal, this is a personal decision that you need to make. Our role is to make sure that you receive the correct legal advice and guidance, allowing us to make a solid case on your behalf. If you want to use legal representation, we will make sure that you are given the best chance for success. Do I have to attend the tribunal?
You should plan to attend the hearing, as part of the process; we will advise you accordingly. The court will expect you to give your version of events and also to provide oral evidence as part of the hearing. If you opt for a paper hearing, you will not be given the opportunity to attend the hearing. Do I need to use a barrister?
We recommend using a barrister for most cases. A barrister will have a detailed knowledge of UK immigration case law and have experience in representing clients at court. We deal with a team of experienced and senior barristers on a regular basis. PERMITS2WORK is registered with the Office of the Immigration Standards Commissioner at the highest level. |
