How Parish Patience Immigration Lawyers get paid

Professional legal/migration fees apply and vary by visa type and complexity; request a written quote at your initial consultation.

Confirm exactly what you will be charged, and what happens to that money if your visa is refused. Get it in writing before you pay anything. An agent that will not put its fees in writing is telling you something.
