Questions my clients ask me
I try to avoid giving percentages as I don’t think they’re helpful – this will depend on the merits of each case. It is essential to have a lawyer who can competently explain and navigate all the risks on a client’s behalf and effectively advocate their interests.
The Home Office provides guidance on the timescales for each application type. However, in reality these vary; a lawyer’s experience in handling applications will often give a better indication as to the actual timescales involved.
While many applications can be completed without legal assistance, application forms can be misleading and don’t take account of individual circumstances. Answering a single question inaccurately, even if a genuine mistake, can lead to a refusal. If in doubt, take advice. It may be that a more strategic approach is necessary in complex cases.
