SWITCHING TO THE LEGAL CENTRE

If you are unhappy with your current immigration adviser or solicitor, you are not required to remain with them. You have the right to change your legal representative at any stage of your case.

Switching to the Legal Centre is straightforward and handled professionally.
In most cases, you do not need to contact your previous representative yourself — we will manage the transition on your behalf.

WHEN CLIENTS DECIDE TO SWITCH

Clients typically approach us when:

• communication with their current adviser has broken down
• they cannot obtain clear advice
• deadlines are being missed
• they are concerned about how their case is being handled
• their application has already been refused
• urgent action is required

Immigration matters often involve strict deadlines and serious consequences. Delays or errors may affect your legal status, employment and family life.

HOW THE SWITCH WORKS

Once instructed, we will:

• assess your current situation
• review your documents
• contact your previous representative
• request transfer of your file
• take over communications with the Home Office or Tribunal
• advise you on the most appropriate strategy

Our priority is to stabilise your situation quickly and protect your immigration position.

URGENT AND COMPLEX CASES

We regularly accept cases involving:

• previous refusals
• appeals
• overstaying issues
• detention and bail matters
• last-minute applications
• cases already in progress

Even if your situation appears difficult, it may still be possible to resolve it with the correct legal approach.

CONFIDENTIALITY

All communications and case information are handled confidentially and in accordance with professional obligations.

We ensure that the transfer of your case is carried out safely without jeopardising your position.

FIRST STEP — CONSULTATION

A consultation allows us to:

• understand your situation
• identify risks
• determine whether urgent action is required
• advise you on the safest way to proceed
