Individuals may be detained for several reasons, including:
Overstaying their visa or illegal entry into the UK.
Pending deportation or removal from the UK.
Asylum seekers whose claims are being processed.
Those who have committed immigration offences.
Although detention should only be used as a last resort, many individuals are unlawfully or unnecessarily detained. If you or someone you know is in detention, our solicitors can help by challenging the legality of the detention and pursuing options for release.
Our Immigration Detention Services
We offer a range of services designed to assist individuals detained by UK immigration authorities, helping them secure their release and navigate the legal complexities of their situation. Our services include:
1. Immigration Bail Applications
If you or a loved one is being held in detention, applying for immigration bail may be the best route to secure release. Our legal team can assist by:
Preparing and submitting your bail application, including gathering the necessary evidence and sureties.
Advising you on the conditions that will need to be met, such as having a suitable address and financial support.
Representing you at your bail hearing before the First-tier Tribunal or an Immigration Judge, arguing for your release on bail.
2. Challenging Unlawful Detention
If you believe that your detention is unlawful, we can help you challenge it through legal means. Our expert solicitors will:
Assess whether your detention complies with immigration law and human rights standards.
File legal proceedings, such as a Judicial Review, to challenge the legality of your detention.
Seek your immediate release and, where appropriate, pursue compensation for unlawful detention.
3. Removal and Deportation Defence
If you are facing removal or deportation from the UK, we offer urgent legal assistance to stop the process and challenge the Home Office’s decision. We can help with:
Filing urgent applications to stop or delay removal or deportation while your legal case is being reviewed.
Representing you in appeals and Judicial Review proceedings.
Ensuring your human rights are protected, particularly if removal would breach your right to family life or put you in danger.
4. Support for Asylum Seekers in Detention
Asylum seekers may be detained while their claims are processed, but detention is often unnecessary and can be challenged. We provide:
Legal representation to challenge the detention of asylum seekers.
Support with applying for bail and ensuring that any pending asylum application is properly reviewed.
Assistance in pursuing alternatives to detention and ensuring that you are treated fairly throughout the asylum process.
5. Release and Post-Detention Support
Once you are released on bail or after a successful challenge to detention, we continue to provide legal support by:
Assisting with conditions attached to your bail, ensuring compliance with all legal requirements.
Advising on your next steps, such as applying for leave to remain, appealing a removal order, or regularizing your immigration status.
Offering long-term strategies to prevent re-detention and secure permanent residence or settlement in the UK.
The Immigration Bail Process
When applying for bail from immigration detention, the process involves:
Bail Application: You must submit a formal bail application to the First-tier Tribunal or Home Office. Our team will assist with preparing and gathering supporting evidence, including sureties and address information.
Bail Hearing: You or your representative will attend a bail hearing before an Immigration Judge or the Home Office. Our solicitors will represent you at this hearing, presenting strong legal arguments for your release and addressing any concerns the authorities may have.
Bail Conditions: If bail is granted, you will be released with conditions, such as reporting to a designated immigration centre, living at a specific address, or refraining from certain activities. We will guide you through these conditions to ensure full compliance.
Post-Release Support: After release, our solicitors will continue to support you with your immigration status, helping you stay within the law and exploring long-term solutions.
