Upper Tribunal decisions

The Upper Tribunal (Immigration and Asylum Chamber) hears appeals in immigration and asylum cases. In published decisions from 2025 to 2026, this firm is named as representative in 3 cases.

  • 1 — in the claimant’s favour
  • 2 — outcome not determined

The number of cases shows experience, not quality: strong firms often take the hardest cases. That is why we do not publish a “win rate” — that figure would mislead.
