APPLYING TO SET UP A BUSINESS IN THE UK (START-UPS AND INNOVATORS)

BOOK AN APPOINTMENT

Sally McEwen

Director

"The Start-Up and Innovator routes allow applicant’s to set up a cutting edge business in the United Kingdom. The business must be considered innovative, scalable and viable. Innovative businesses are unique and bring something new to the UK market, whether it be products or services. Entrepreneurs under this category will have to have endorsement from a Home Office approved endorsing body prior to making their application for entry clearance or leave to remain.

The key to endorsement is a robust business plan and for the Innovator Route, the funds to invest in your business.

Our legal team at OTB Legal work with experienced business plan writers and have a great track record of getting successful outcomes for applications to set up a business in the UK. Why not talk to us about your application?"

How we work - including our transparent pricing

We find that our 3 stage system of working with clients gives everyone the greatest clarity on what can be achieved, how it will happen and how much it will cost.

Assess

Price - £0.00

Before we take on a case we always want to establish what the right kind of application is for you and this is what the Assessment Stage is all about.

We find out more about you and what you want to achieve. It is an informal discussion which can be delivered how you want it, whether that is over the phone, using video conferencing or at our easily accessible office - it is entirely your choice.

This stage is completely free and there is no obligation to take on our paid services. At the end of the Assessment Stage you will have a clear plan as to the range of applications available, the costs involved and how likely you are to get a successful outcome.

Take advantage of this free legal advice from the UK's leading immigration lawyers:

This is just a short note to thank you for all your hard work to have enabled me to win my appeal. To be truthful Sally I wasn’t sure on what grounds I was appealing on at the beginning and never really held any hopes of winning the appeal. I was in shock and it took a long time so really sink in. Thanks again, yours gratefully…
