We advised and handled the sponsor licence application to register the Mitchells and Butler Group of companies as a sponsor licence holder. This involved registering over 1600 branches on the licence, ensuring that all of the Group’s HR systems and processes were up to speed for a UKVI audit and providing internal training to HR and legal teams on compliance and management of their licence.

We advised the Brush Group Ltd. The Group sold their power division business to Baker Hughes. This necessitated legal advice on ensuring that the correct requirements were followed to ensure the transfer of sponsored skilled workers to Baker Hughes. The work also required a new sponsor licence application being made for Brush within strict stipulated time frames due to a change in the Group structure to safeguard the position of those skilled workers remaining with Brush.

Testimonials

I had an immigration business visa problem. I spoke to Sana at Paragon Law after reading their website which states that they deal with all immigration matters. Firstly, Sana was completely helpful in directing my problem to Thalej, an immigration lawyer at Paragon Law, who called me back and took the time to understand exactly what the problem was and give me a solution. I found Thalej to be knowledgeable with care and attention. This is exactly what you want in an already stressful situation.

I would like to thank Thal Vasishta, Sana Bukhsh, Kirin Abbas and Shehzad Babar and other team members at Paragon Law.

It was 2019 when I had first contacted Paragon Law for my work visa and dependent visa for my family. Once again in December 2022, for the same subject and couldn’t think of any other firm.

I would recommend only Paragon Law to anyone seeking experts or service in immigration matters. Once again, thanks a lot to everyone at ‘Paragon Law’.

I would strongly recommend Paragon Law to anyone who is looking for some advice on immigration law matters – especially Thalej Vasishta. I have used their services on multiple occasions and can confirm that they are highly professional, experienced and friendly. Thal is an expert in this matter and has always provided the right advice for every situation. He is very prompt in his response and follows up until the very end. He has always adhered to the deadline or timeline committed by him. He has also advised our company on complex matters with an easy go approach.
