We can help you and your family apply for British citizenship.

We assist individuals who, through their residence or other ties, can apply for British citizenship. Nationality law is complex and has undergone many changes over the years and we can assist you to navigate this area of law.

We will review your immigration history and give you realistic advice on the prospects of success of an application.

Since the changes to the good character guidance, many individuals have been refused naturalisation on the basis of their previous immigration history. If your application has been refused, we can advise on applying to have it reconsidered by the Home Office, or obtain an alternative remedy.

There are a number of ways in which children born in the UK can either register as British citizens or may, in fact, already be British citizens. For instance, if your child has lived in the UK for the first ten years of their life, they may have a right to register as British. If you are a European national and your child was born in the UK, your child may already be British. We can provide expert advice in these cases, as well as cases relating to adoption and surrogacy.

If you or an ascendant were born in a country which used to be part of the British Empire, you may have an entitlement to British citizenship. We have also assisted individuals who could not previously access British citizenship because of historic discrimination against women and against children who were born out of wedlock.

We are so pleased today to have submitted Trent’s application to register as a BOTC and British citizen following recent changes to the law.

Well done to the @BOTCCAMPAIGN for their work in highlighting the historic injustice for children of BOTC parents!

Home Office @ukhomeoffice

We've launched new routes to nationality for those affected by historical anomalies, including for British Overseas Territories citizens.

This will help people like Trent, who is now able to apply for both British overseas territories citizenship & British citizenship.
