Newcastle immigration solicitor — common questions

How do I find an immigration solicitor in Newcastle?

Use the search above to filter Newcastle immigration solicitors by Legal Aid contract, specialism and language. The directory covers Newcastle upon Tyne (NE postcodes) and the wider Tyne and Wear area including Gateshead and Sunderland.

Is Legal Aid available for immigration cases in Newcastle?

Yes. At least 1 Newcastle-based firm holds a Legal Aid Agency contract for asylum and appeals work. Use the "Free lawyer · Legal Aid" filter above. You can verify any firm's Legal Aid contract via the LAA's public register at gov.uk.

Do Newcastle solicitors handle cases for clients elsewhere in the North East?

Yes. Immigration cases are decided centrally by the Home Office, so your solicitor does not need to be in your town. Newcastle firms regularly work with clients across County Durham, Northumberland and Tyne and Wear by phone, email and video.

How do I verify an immigration solicitor is regulated?

Check the SRA register (sra.org.uk/consumers/register) for solicitors, the BSB register (barstandardsboard.org.uk) for barristers, or the OISC/IAA register (gov.uk/find-an-immigration-adviser) for accredited advisers. Only instruct regulated practitioners.
