- Complex nationality matters and applications to register as a British citizen;
- Global Talent applications – with a particular focus on those seeking endorsement through Tech Nation;
- Advising prospective entrepreneur clients under the Innovator and Start-Up categories, which have now replaced the Entrepreneur scheme, and assisting existing Tier 1 (Entrepreneur) clients with their extension and indefinite leave to remain applications;
