Visa applications, appeals, and sponsors — on track.

Immigration law is deadline-critical and heavily document-intensive. Obiter tracks every application, appeal, and Home Office correspondence — so your clients never miss a critical date.

The Immigration challenge

Immigration practice carries an unforgiving administrative burden. Home Office rules shift without notice, deadlines are absolute, and a single missed document can cost a client years. The billing complexity of LAA-funded immigration work compounds the pressure — while your fee earners are navigating Appendix FM, someone has to ensure the IMLOT codes are right. Obiter absorbs that burden.

Home Office deadlines are strict and non-extendable

Application document requirements change frequently

Appeal periods are short and easy to miss

LAA immigration billing codes are granular and easy to under-claim

Sponsor licence compliance requires ongoing monitoring
