Practice areas

We give you a fixed price before any work starts, as far as the case allows it. After the first conversation you will have a clear figure, so nothing arrives later that you were not told about.

Where a case genuinely cannot be priced as a fixed sum in advance, we say so and give you the closest estimate we can rather than leaving it open.

It depends on the authority and the type of case. As a rough guide: family reunification at the Danish Immigration Service (Udlændingestyrelsen) usually runs 6 to 12 months. An application for Danish citizenship can take more than 2 years. An appeal at the Immigration Appeals Board (Udlændingenævnet) can take 10 to 12 months. Cases at SIRI are normally quicker, between 1 and 3 months, depending on complexity and on how much the office is carrying.

These are estimates and they slip. Part of what we do while a case is running is keep track of where it actually is, so you are not left guessing, and follow it up with the authority where it has been sitting longer than it should.

The first contact is a telephone assessment of your case. It commits you to nothing. We go through what you tell us and give you a view of your legal options and of how likely a good outcome actually is.

That conversation is usually enough to establish whether there is a case worth running and what the next step should be.

If it can proceed, you get a plan: what happens in which order, which documents we need from you, and where the case can be strengthened before anything is submitted. Knowing that at the start is worth more than it sounds, because a great deal of what decides an immigration case is settled before the application is sent.

We advise in Danish, English, German, Kurdish and Turkish, so you can put your case to us in whichever of those you think in.

That matters more than it sounds. An immigration case turns on details you have to be able to explain precisely, and on advice you have to be able to act on. If either of those passes through a language you only half follow, something gets lost along the way. We would rather take your case in your own language, from the first conversation to the decision.
