Guidelines Our Fees for Immigration Matters

Each matter is unique

The fees quoted below will be varied depending on the complexity of your case and its individual merits. This will also depend on the need to involve third parties such as Experts, Interpreters, Barristers and others, if necessary.

In certain circumstances we can offer to represent you for less on a fixed fee basis which will decrease the cost substantially. However, this is dependent on the factual background and each case is assessed on its own merits.

We strongly advise that Clients treat the schedule below as an indicative of the likely fees rather than the guaranteed final price.
