Immigration law can affect your ability to live, work or study in the UK, as well as whether you can be joined by your partner or family. For employers, the immigration rules can also affect who you can recruit from overseas and the responsibilities you have as a sponsor.
Our immigration solicitors in Northampton provide legal advice to individuals, families and businesses on a wide range of UK immigration matters. Whether you are applying for a visa, extending your stay, seeking settlement or dealing with a refusal, we can explain the rules that apply and help you prepare your next steps.

Immigration Advice for Individuals and Families
Immigration applications can require extensive information and supporting evidence. It is not enough to simply believe that you meet the relevant requirements; your application also needs to demonstrate this clearly to the Home Office.
Our immigration solicitors can review your circumstances, explain the relevant requirements and advise on the evidence needed to support your application.
We advise on matters including:
- Family and partner visas
- Skilled Worker and other work visas
- Student and graduate immigration matters
- Indefinite Leave to Remain
- British citizenship and nationality
- Immigration status and documents
- Asylum and human rights applications
- Deportation and removal
- Visa refusals and immigration appeals
If you have already received a refusal or are concerned about a previous immigration application, we can review your position and explain the options available.
Immigration applications often turn on the evidence provided rather than simply whether someone believes they meet the rules. We look at the application as a whole and consider whether the documents clearly support what is being said. Identifying gaps before an application is submitted can help avoid problems later.

How our Northampton Immigration Solicitors can Help
If you want to live in the UK with your spouse, partner, parent or child, you may need to meet specific immigration requirements. These can include requirements relating to your relationship, finances, accommodation and immigration status.
Our family visa solicitors can advise on the appropriate route and the evidence required to support your application.
If you want to come to the UK to work, or need to extend or change your existing immigration permission, we can advise on the visa routes available.
This includes Skilled Worker applications and other work-related immigration routes. We can explain the eligibility requirements and help you prepare the documents required for your application.
Businesses recruiting employees from outside the UK may need a sponsor licence and must continue to meet their Home Office responsibilities after the licence has been granted.
We advise Northampton employers on sponsor licence applications, sponsorship duties and employing overseas workers.
If you have lived in the UK for a qualifying period, you may be able to apply for Indefinite Leave to Remain or British citizenship.
We can assess your immigration history, explain the requirements that apply to your route and help you prepare your application and supporting evidence.
A visa refusal does not necessarily mean that you have reached the end of the process. The appropriate response will depend on the reasons given by the Home Office and the type of application you made.
We can review the refusal and advise whether your options may include making a new application, requesting an administrative review or pursuing an immigration appeal.
