Is Solicitor charges proportionate

Post by johndoe789 » Wed Jan 14, 2015 7:00 am

I m in the process of permission to appeal to UTT directly. I went to xxx solicitors for their help. They said they will charge me a fees of £1500 for only submitting the permission to appeal to UTT. They will find error of law in the judgement which either my existing solicitor has failed to address or missed completely.

Are they good? I don't mind paying this sum but I don't want to be mugged.

My existing solicitor says your permission to appeal to utt will be refused as normally the utt will normally upheld the decision of lower court. That is why he was not making any substantial changes to the appeal.

Is it worth paying to xxx for permission to appeal to utt.

You need to be very careful with these people.
They just want money, nothing else.
If a solicitor is advertising on tv then he is a big thief.
Look for other options.

I recently visited them for a consultation.
Paid £60 for few minutes of so called consultation.
The consultant was in such a hurry....
He would charge me 3000 just to lodge my appeal

They are mrxxx i went there for consultation and paid them fee for consultation, all he advised me that yes you can appeal and we would charged £3000 for this and if you intersted tink about it and make a payment.

I have done the same thing in £1,000 from other solicitors and won the appeal straight away. Be carefull from them.

http://www.immigrationboards.com/uk-tie ... 74334.html

I have already completed my lawful residence in the UK in December 2014.

I am going for the permission of appeal in UT directly.

Good news I have received a letter from the bank in which confirms my bank account details.

Vinny,

My appeal was refused in the FTT on the point that I didnt have any letter(s) from bank but lots of emails and bank pay order. The judge asked me if I had any letter from the bank. In the refusal letter he also mentioned that if I had any letter then the situation would be different.

Now I had the letter which confirms my genuineness of my account. But on the letter, the person didn't mention his name but I have DHL receipt that it was posted my the bank. I have asked the bank again to issue another letter.

How can I now convince the judge as I am in the process of permission to appeal and that new letter can change the situation. I don't need to have Tier 1 ent visa, I only need deception to be removed from my shoulders. 4

Please help.
