Detention Services at Burney Legal

Overview

Immigration detention refers to the practice of holding individuals in custody while their immigration status is being determined or during the deportation process. This can occur for various reasons, including overstaying a visa, a criminal conviction, or during deportation proceedings. If you or someone you know has been detained, it is essential to seek legal assistance immediately to ensure your rights are upheld.

At Burney Legal, we provide expert legal support to individuals facing detention in the UK. Our experienced immigration solicitors work diligently to secure your release and challenge unlawful detention, ensuring your rights are protected throughout the process.

  • Bail Applications
    We assist in submitting bail applications to secure your release from detention. Our lawyers will help you understand the process and ensure the strongest case for your release is presented.

  • Challenging Unlawful Detention
    If your detention is unlawful, we can help challenge it in court. This may involve applying for judicial review to determine whether your detention is justified under UK immigration law.
