⚠️Our clients' claim for judicial review of the Home Secretary’s decision to suspend the route for refugee family reunion will be heard by Mr Justice Coppel in the Administrative Court between 13–15 May 2026.

The High Court has ordered the Home Secretary to retain and not treat as void a family’s Refugee Family Reunion application following a challenge by our team. The claim was brought by a Palestinian family who applied to join a family member in the UK before the indefinite pause of this route.

What’s changing in UK immigration right now? 👇 The NWP team look at recent announcements from the Home Secretary. They discuss two key test cases, covering the refugee family reunion "suspension" and “good character” guidance for refugees. Listen here 🔊 buff.ly/wxGNypL

🚨👏 The High Court granted interim relief to a confirmed victim of trafficking whom the Secretary of State for the Home Department intended to remove under the UK-France Agreement.

👉 Our team has secured permission from the High Court to proceed with a judicial review challenge to the Home Office policy “Nationality: Good Character Requirement”. The Court also directed that one of our claimants be treated as a lead claimant in the proceedings.

A major legal victory against a Home Office decision. Our team successfully challenged a Home Office decision that blocked access to public funds for our client, RG. 👇

An Afghan Police & Special Forces officer who worked alongside the UK regiment was twice refused relocation. He spent years in hiding from the Taliban with his wife & two young children. Our team have now secured their safe arrival to the UK. 👏

More evidence of serious failures within the immigration detention system, as the High Court rules that there has been an unlawful failure of the Home Office’s system designed to protect vulnerable people from inhuman and degrading treatment in detention.
