Judicial Review for Immigration Decisions

Judicial Review for Immigration Decisions - United Kingdom

Challenge Unlawful Immigration Decisions through Judicial Review

If you have faced an unfair or unlawful decision from the Home Office or an immigration tribunal, Judicial Review could be the solution. Judicial Review is a legal process that allows you to challenge decisions made by a public body, such as the Home Office, if the decision is deemed to be unreasonable, illegal, or procedurally incorrect.

At Deccan Prime Solicitors LLP , we specialize in representing individuals and businesses in Judicial Review cases related to UK immigration. Our team of expert immigration solicitors offers robust legal representation to challenge unlawful decisions and ensure that your rights are protected.

What is Judicial Review in Immigration?

Judicial Review is not an appeal. Instead, it is a legal remedy where a judge reviews the lawfulness of a decision made by a public authority, such as the Home Office. Judicial Review is typically pursued when:

There is no right of appeal for your immigration case.

You believe a decision was made unlawfully or with procedural errors.

The decision violates human rights or was made in bad faith.

This process allows the courts to assess whether the decision was made according to the law, rather than re-evaluating the facts of your immigration case.

The Judicial Review Process

Initial Consultation and Case Assessment: We begin by assessing the details of your case to determine whether Judicial Review is the appropriate route for challenging the decision

Pre-Action Protocol: Before initiating Judicial Review proceedings, we will submit a Pre-Action Protocol letter to the Home Office, setting out the reasons why their decision is unlawful. This gives the Home Office a chance to reconsider its decision.

Filing for Judicial Review: If the Home Office does not amend or withdraw the decision, we will file an application for Judicial Review with the High Court. Our solicitors will prepare all necessary documents and legal arguments on your behalf.

Hearing: The case will then proceed to a hearing, where a judge will review the lawfulness of the decision. We will represent you in court, ensuring your case is presented effectively.

Outcome: If successful, the court may quash (cancel) the decision and order the Home Office to reconsider. In some cases, the court may also award compensation if your rights were violated.
