PATHFYNDER – expert UK immigration lawyers
Following a successful career in immigration law, Shahjahan Ali has set up his own immigration law firm based in Shoreditch, London. Having specialised in immigration law for over 8 years, he has advised many people and businesses on matters ranging from investor visas, work permits, indefinite leave to remain to human rights appeals. Shahjahan is a recognised expert in immigration law and in June 2016 he brought his wealth of experience to Shoreditch and launched Pathfynder. Since launching, Pathfynder has thrived and grown into a 4 person team and is looking to relocate to a larger office in West London later this year.
Type of work
Pathfynder provides legal advice on a range of different immigration matters. The firm specialises in assisting people obtain Tier 1 visas, which range from Investor visas and Entrepreneur visas. However, the firm also assists people with spouse visas for non-UK nationals of British citizens and their dependent children. They also provide immigration assistance to companies who wish to bring their employees over to the UK on Tier 2 working visas.
With Britain’s impending withdrawal from the EU, Pathfynder have recently been advising a growing number of EEA nationals on getting permanent residence cards or obtaining British citizenship, because many of these EEA nationals have been worried about what legal status they will have when the UK leaves the EU in two years’ time.
Pathfynder also provides legal assistance on human rights appeals, asylum cases and judicial review.
Types of clients
Pathfynder assists clients from a variety of different backgrounds and nationalities. The firm specialises in assisting high net worth individuals applying for Tier 1 visas from entry clearance to helping them get indefinite leave to remain in the UK. Pathfynder also works with those who need legal assistance on human rights appeals and asylum cases.
Plans for the future
Although there is currently a 4 person team, the firm is looking to expand the team over the next year which should enable it to serve a greater number of clients.
