Amazing experience
After placing an enquiry, I received a call 20 minutes later, and then 2 hours later, I had a solicitor assigned to me. They were absolutely incredible right from the word go - amazing and very prompt with replies, answering all my questions and keeping the process moving. We finally completed today and I am so unbelievably happy. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Lawhive again in the future if needed.
Lily
First class service
I initially made an online enquiry about a tricky conveyancing matter and received an immediate call back. They understood straight away what was needed and gave me a quote that was very reasonable. It was such a pleasure to find someone who was cheerful, professional and completely reassuring as I’d been getting quite anxious about the sale of my house. The service Lawhive has provided is absolutely first class and I cannot recommend them enough.

Kelvin
Great service when you need clarity and calm
Our solicitor was warm, friendly and provided crystal clear communication. A lot of conveyancers assume customers know everything about the process already, so it was really appreciated to hear each stage included in the price given.

At Lawhive, our team of expert online immigration lawyers and solicitors can help individuals apply for the right visa application, reunite them with their families, solve common immigration problems and help businesses understand and comply with important immigration law and regulations.
UK Immigration Law impacts the lives of countless individuals seeking new opportunities, education, family reunification, or a fresh start in the United Kingdom.
Whether you're a young professional eyeing a career in the UK, a student dreaming of studying at a British university, or a family eager to reunite with loved ones we'll take you through everything you need to know about immigration law, and how you can get the right help for your situation. We'll cover:
Immigration law covers rules, regulations, and policies that govern the entry, stay, and exit of non-citizens in the United Kingdom. It's the legal framework that defines who can come to the UK, for how long, and under what conditions.
If you need help with an immigration problem an immigration solicitor can provide advice, help you with your application, and support you in making appeals.
Specifically, a solicitor who specialises in immigration law may be able to help you with:
UK immigration law can be complex, and it can change for a number of reasons. An immigration solicitor will help you understand your rights, what you need to do to fix a problem, and how you can go about doing it.
You might be wondering if using an immigration solicitor is worth it.
Immigration solicitors are super knowledgeable about all the rules and laws related to immigration. They can give you the right advice for your situation, make sure all your papers are in order, and if there’s a problem with your visa application, they can help you fix it.
If you have to go to hearings or appeals an immigration solicitor will also give you legal advice and stand up for your rights.
Immigration law can be complex whether you’re an individual seeking advice on living and working in the UK, or you’re a business owner seeking help with recruiting EU nationals. The right immigration solicitor will work closely with you to understand your immigration requirements and take the next steps.
How much a UK immigration lawyer costs depends on the area you need help with such as:
The cost may also depend on how the solicitor charges for their help (i.e. fixed fee or hourly) and how much work is involved.
At Lawhive, our immigration solicitors provide legal assistance on a fixed fee basis. So if, for example, you wanted an immigration lawyer to review your visa application, this might cost around £339 for a 30 minute consultation, review of your application and feedback on what they have discovered.
It’s important to note when budgeting for specialist immigration law help that visa applications also require a fee on top of any legal help you might need. This can range from £30 to £1,500+ depending on the application.
