Information and support for immigration and sponsor licence compliance.
The UK healthcare sector relies heavily on international talent, but in an environment where immigration rules are constantly evolving, navigating the legal requirements of overseas recruitment can be challenging, time-consuming, and risky without the right support.
Our expert immigration lawyers work closely with healthcare providers to deliver tailored, practical advice that supports your workforce needs while ensuring full compliance with UK immigration law. We understand the unique demands of your sector and the importance of getting immigration matters right — quickly, efficiently, and with minimal disruption.
We advise on all aspects of business immigration, including Sponsor Licence applications and renewals, Skilled Worker visas, Right to Work checks, and compliance with sponsor duties. Our team will guide you through the complexities of the Sponsor Management System (SMS), help you prepare for Home Office audits, and ensure your recruitment and onboarding processes are robust and compliant.
We can help you plan ahead, adapt to policy changes, and avoid costly delays or penalties. Our support extends to helping individual healthcare professionals secure the right to live and work in the UK, as well as advising on visa extensions, indefinite leave to remain, and EU settled status.
We know that budget certainty is vital — particularly in the healthcare sector, where every resource counts. That’s why many of our services are offered on a fixed-fee basis, giving you clarity and control over legal costs from the outset.
Whether you’re expanding your workforce or responding to urgent staffing needs, we’re here to help you build a compliant, sustainable recruitment strategy that allows your organisation to thrive — and your patients to receive the care they deserve.

Whilst international recruitment has been a vital source of additional workers for the health and social care sector, it is not without risks.

We help our clients to successfully navigate through the UK’s ever changing immigration laws and processes.
