Successful Administrative Review Challenge to Tier 1 (Entrepreneur) extension
By Rakhi Singal
Rakhi Singal is Founder, Director and Head of Family Law at RVS Solicitors. Studying at Bournemouth University and BPP Law School, Rakhi quickly gained a profile in the industry for her work. After creating and successfully managing the Family Law & Civil Litigation department at a leading Legal 500 law firm in London, a role that she was headhunted for, she got the idea to create a law firm in her own image. RVS Solicitors was created and has subsequently helped hundreds to achieve their legal goals, start new futures and obtain justice. A highly regarded family lawyer in the UK, Rakhi gained industry recognition for her relentless attitude, negotiation skills and her ability to always stay calm under pressure and provides a high level of expertise, knowledge and service to our clients every day.
Our team was approached by two clients, who were in the UK as a team of Tier 1 Entrepreneurs. The clients had applied for Tier 1 (Entrepreneur) extension within the legal time limits, but had received a refusal. They were seeking specialist advise on best options to resolve their immigration issue and continue living and working in the UK.
After the initial assessment, the clients were invited for a consultation with one of our specialist immigration solicitors. This was decided on the basis that the case presented certain complexities, in particular with the view that the entire documentation submitted with the application would have to be examined before our solicitors would be in position to help.
After the initial consultation and once all the documents were carefully examined by our team, the clients were advised that they would need to challenge the decision by way of Administrative Review.
