No Win, No Fee For Judicial Review (JR) Against The Home Office UKVI
- Our specialist team of immigration solicitors can act for your Judicial Review (JR) against the Home Office UKVI on No Win, No Fee, basis which means you will not have to pay our legal costs if you do not succeed in your Judicial Review and if we do succeed in the Judicial Review (JR) we will recover our legal costs from the Home Office UKVI.
- The No Win, No Fee agreement does not cover disbursements or third-party costs, e.g. court fees and Barrister fees in relation to your Judicial Review proceedings, and you will have to pay such costs for us to prepare and issue the Judicial Review proceedings. If we recover our legal costs from the Home Office UKVI in the event of succeeding in Judicial Review proceedings, the disbursement which you would have paid would be refunded to you, as such disbursements will also be recovered from the Home Office UKVI. However, if we are not able to recover our legal costs from the Home Office UKVI, you will not be able to get the refund of the court fee and the Barrister's fees.
- Please note that we will only take on your case on a no-win, no-fee basis if we find good grounds to challenge the Home Office UKVI's unlawful decision.
