Expertise you can Trust
Do you want to live and work in Canada, but are debating whether you really need to hire an Immigration Lawyer? Technically, there is no legal requirement to hire an immigration lawyer to represent your case. However, you could be making a big mistake if you decide to go it alone. Below we’ve put together five reasons why you should hire an immigration lawyer:
1. Knowledge and Expertise
There are often very complicated legal procedures involved when you immigrate to Canada, and especially if you’re not well-versed in immigration law, we highly recommend that you seek out a professional who will be there to help guide you through the process. Otherwise, you could run the risk of having your application turned down, which could result in even greater difficulties later down the line.
2. Deadlines Met On Time, Every Time
When you hire an immigration lawyer, it is their responsibility to ensure all documentation is present, correct, and handed in on time. It can be all too easy to overlook a necessary requirement on your application (jeopardizing your entire case!), but hiring a professional takes all the stress out of your hands.
3. Affordable Fees
Most reputable immigration law firms will offer an affordable rate without giving you any false promises. They will genuinely care about providing you with the best possible legal service at a fair price – otherwise, they would not be in possession of that fantastic reputation for very long!
4. The best chance of success
Although there are no guarantees that your application for a visa to live and work in Canada will be accepted, you’ll be giving yourself the very best chance of success by hiring a qualified and experienced immigration lawyer.
5. Lawyers over Consultant

Under Canada’s immigration law, you can ask the Federal Court of Canada to review immigration decisions. There are deadlines to apply for a review. For example, if the Immigration and Refugee Board (IRB) rejects your claim for refugee protection, you must file an application for a Federal Court review within 15 days of the IRB decision. If you want to apply for a review, you may want to get legal advice as soon as possible. A review by the Federal Court is a 2-stage process:
