Legal Support for Overstayers in the UK

If you’ve overstayed your visa or lost your legal status in the UK, you’re not alone, and you still have options. Hermes Legal provides confidential, expert legal support to help overstayers regularise their stay and protect their future.

What We Can Help You With

If you’ve overstayed your visa or your legal status has expired in the UK, you’re not alone, and you’re not without options. At Hermes Legal, we understand how overwhelming this situation can be, and we provide confidential, expert legal support to help overstayers regain control of their immigration status and secure their future.

Our team can assist you in reviewing your current status and identifying legal pathways available to you. Whether you’re eligible under the 20-year long residence rule, have strong family or private life ties in the UK, or have new evidence that could support a fresh human rights claim, we’ll carefully assess your case and guide you toward the best solution.

Overstaying does not automatically mean you will be removed from the UK. Many clients remain eligible to apply for leave to remain on human rights grounds, especially if they have established a family, raised children in the UK, or developed strong community connections. Every case is unique, and our role is to present your circumstances clearly and persuasively to the Home Office.

We begin with a private, no-obligation consultation to understand your situation and immigration history. We then review your documents, develop a tailored legal strategy, and prepare any required applications or representations. Throughout the process, we maintain clear communication and provide support at every stage.

With Hermes Legal on your side, you don’t have to face uncertainty alone. We’ll work closely with you to build a strong case, protect your rights, and seek a lawful and secure outcome for your future in the UK.
