Director / Solicitor

"Since the changes to the immigration rules in 2012 made it more difficult for adult dependant relatives to join their children in the UK, there has been a significant increase in the refusal of visit visas from elderly relatives.


The added difficulty is that the appeal rights have been restricted for visitors and therefore applicants are often prevented from visiting relatives and miss out on special occasions taking place in the UK. Unless there are grounds to appeal the refusal on human rights, the only way to challenge the refusal is to make an application for a judicial review to the High Court. Given this, legal advice is strongly recommended, especially in the cases where the applicant is visiting the UK for the first time.


Our legal team at OTB Legal have a great track record of getting successful outcomes for applications to visit the UK . Why not talk to us about your application?"
