I am a caseworker, assisting foreign nationals, many of whom are in detention, with their immigration matters. My work ranges from helping clients apply for immigration bail to using human rights arguments and international law in support of clients’ appeals against removal or deportation from the UK. I also have experience of assisting EEA (European Economic Area) nationals and their family members. I previously worked for an organisation in Cairo, Egypt, representing African asylum seekers before the UNHCR (United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees) and have a special interest in refugee law.
