If you have already submitted your application and are waiting for a response, you usually do not need to start a new full application.
What can a lawyer do?
Depending on the situation, an independent immigration lawyer may:
review what was filed and check for missing information;
assess whether the waiting time is unusual;
write formally to the immigration authority;
request information or access to the file;
explain whether a further legal step may be available.
What does it cost?
The indicative lawyer fee is usually €300 to €800.
The exact price depends on the work required. The lawyer confirms the scope, VAT treatment and binding price before starting.
What should you provide?
the date you applied;
the authority handling the application;
any application confirmation or reference number;
the most recent message from the authority;
any deadline, travel, work-right or status concern.
If there is a deadline, refusal, removal risk, uncertain work permission or urgent travel issue, say so immediately.
