Immigration law advice for nanny


Fi12

Recommended Posts

Hi,


We have a wonderful nanny from New Zealand, who we would like to look into sponsoring as an employee to stay in the UK for a while longer. Her existing 2 year visa is due to expire in the new year. Can anyone recommend an immigration lawyer or visa agency who we could talk to to get some initial advice please?


Many thanks,

Fiona

ILPA ( Immigration Law Practitioners? Association ) has a search facility for finding immigration lawyers. There are a mix of charities and private practice solicitors and OISC-registered advisers.

Personally (having been involved in refugee practice) I would recommend Wesley Gryk Solicitors [http://www.gryklaw.com/] in Lower Marsh. Very knowledgeable and experienced, involved in training for professional CPD requirements.


Another option (a charity) would be the Migrants' Resource Centre (http://www.migrantsresourcecentre.org.uk/).


Fisher Meredith are also very good, but seem to have moved from Kennington to High Holborn (http://www.fishermeredith.co.uk/)

    • Any cyclist using Nairne Grove should have noticed the dangerous school streets bollard which was missing its metal cover, leaving it extremely dangerous to cyclists due to its ridiculous location on the corner. I'm amazed it hadn't been dealt with before but I reported it to the Council and within a few days it was sorted. As someone who broke a bone in a fall onto tarmac not long ago, I hope no one was injured in the meantime.  In future anyone can easily report dangerous road defects using:  https://www.fillthathole.org.uk/
    • No the article doesn’t specify  but their actual name amounts to the entire ethos of Reform and the type of people fixing flags across neighbourhoods Given their name and their tactics I doubt they are voting libdem they are almost certainly Reform leaning  (or even more extreme than that) https://thewaltermittyhuntersclubhq2.wordpress.com/2023/10/18/veterans-in-need-ltd-and-another-ben-mills-charity-scam/
    • Another recommendation for Niko who used previously. Recently he carried out several repairs incl blocked toilet and leaks.  Always courteous and generous with his  knowledge and diagnostic skills. Reasonably priced.
