Business immigration and global mobility

With skills shortages affecting many sectors, immigration is a critical issue for UK businesses.

Our business immigration lawyers, who are also employment law experts, can help by providing strategic advice on recruiting and employing overseas nationals in the UK.

We have a long-standing practice advising many of the UK’s best-known employers, as well as overseas businesses, on immigration and employment issues throughout the full employment lifecycle, including pre-process planning. In addition, we provide guidance on right to work checks and the prevention of illegal working.

We can also deliver business immigration and global mobility advice outside the UK through our global network of preferred law firms, enabling organisations to attract, retain, and manage talent effectively across borders.

Recognised for our expertise, we maintain immigration ‘How to’ Guides for the UK’s leading online HR resource, Brightmine, and contribute practice notes to the online legal know-how service, Practical Law.

We also collaborate closely with our personal immigration team, which advises high net worth individuals and their families.

Our business immigration and global mobility experts help you navigate the employment and immigration issues that can arise when recruiting and employing overseas nationals in the UK.
