Advice on Seeking Asylum in the UK

Paragon’s Asylum and Human Rights team is one of the largest in the UK. We are committed to obtaining protection for those fleeing from persecution or serious harm and to minimising disruption to family and private lives established in the UK.

We advise and assist on a wide variety of work, including:

• Initial applications and fresh claims for asylum or human rights protection
• Applications for further leave to remain
• Policy applications such as Iraqi Rashid applications
• Family reunion
• First instance and reconsideration appeals before the Asylum and Immigration Tribunal and High Court
• Applications for permission to the Court of Appeal
• Pursuing judicial review to the Administrative Court
• Resisting removal and obtaining emergency injuctions

Our team is proud of its reputation for assisting unaccompanied asylum-seeking children and we work closely with social services departments in the Midlands and Yorkshire to protect the rights of these most vulnerable clients.

Our asylum specialists are dedicated, innovative in approach and relentless in their pursuit of the best result for their clients.
