Our Services

Sponsor Support At Every Stage

Britlaw Solicitors helps businesses obtain a sponsor licence and keep it. From applications and compliance checks to sponsor management systems and mock visits, we support you in meeting Home Office requirements. We also assist with sponsored worker visas and founder routes.

Core Services

  • Sponsor Licence Applications

    We prepare and support sponsor licence applications for UK businesses that want to hire overseas workers. If you are unsure whether your business is ready or what the Home Office expects, our solicitors assess your position first. This helps you apply with clearer guidance and greater confidence.

  • HR Compliance for Sponsors

    We advise sponsors on the HR duties that come with holding a licence, in line with Home Office requirements. Many businesses worry about keeping records, reporting changes and right to work processes up to standard. Our guidance helps you manage these duties with clearer, more consistent practices.

  • SMS Guidance and HR Systems

    We guide sponsors on using the Sponsor Management System (SMS) and on the HR systems they need in place. Reporting duties and sponsored worker records can be hard to keep on top of as your business grows. Our support helps you build clearer processes for day-to-day sponsor management.

  • Pre-Licence and Post-Licence Compliance Checks

    We review your business before you apply for a licence and again once it is in place. These checks look at whether your records, systems and processes meet sponsor requirements. They help you spot gaps early and address them before they become a concern.

  • Mock Compliance Visit Drills and Full Compliance Assessments

    We run mock compliance visit drills and full compliance assessments to prepare your team for Home Office activity. Visits can be announced or unannounced, so many sponsors want to know how ready they really are. You receive a clear picture of your strengths and the areas that need attention.

  • Self-Sponsorship Routes

    We advise founders and business owners on self-sponsorship routes into the UK. If you plan to run your own company and work within it, choosing the right route matters. Our solicitors help you understand your options and plan your next step.

Supporting Services

  • Skilled Worker Visas and Certificates of Sponsorship

    We support sponsors and workers with Skilled Worker visas and Certificates of Sponsorship. Employers want to fill roles with overseas talent, while workers want a properly prepared application. Our solicitors help both sides move through the process with clear guidance.

  • Innovator Founder Visa

    We advise founders who want to set up a business in the UK through the Innovator Founder visa. Starting a venture in another country raises many questions about eligibility and planning. Our solicitors help you understand the route and prepare your application with care.

  • UK Expansion Worker Visa

    We support overseas businesses that want to open a UK branch through the UK Expansion Worker visa. Expanding into a new market means working out how to bring your people to the UK. Our solicitors help you understand the route and plan your move with confidence.

  • Scale-up Visa

    We advise high-growth businesses on the scale-up visa. When your business is growing quickly, you need to know which visa route suits your plans. Our solicitors help you assess your options and guide you through the application.

  • Right to Work Checks and Illegal Working Compliance

    We advise employers on the right to work checks and illegal working compliance. Errors in these checks can put your business and your sponsor licence at risk. Our guidance helps you carry out checks correctly and keep your records in order.

  • Licence Suspension, Downgrade and Revocation Support

    We support sponsors facing licence suspension, downgrade or revocation. Home Office action can disrupt your operations and your sponsored workers, so prompt advice matters. Our solicitors help you understand the concerns raised and prepare your response.

What Our Clients Say About Us

Booked an appointment with zaheer cheema today, and I can safely say he is the best solicitor I have ever met. From the start to the finish, he held a very high standard of professionalism. I consulted him about my business sponsor licence and provided the best breakdown possible, and made me confident in the process. He takes pride in his work and will never compromise the quality of work for it no matter what the fee is. Don't just take my word book a consultation for free and witness for yourself. He's a one of a kind and I'm grateful to do business with him
