Two decades of immigration expertise in the North East
Founded in 2002, Latif Solicitors has built its reputation on one thing: genuine specialism in immigration law, delivered with honesty and care.
A solicitor who stays with your case
Liaquat Latif established Latif Solicitors in 2002 after working with David Gray Solicitors in Newcastle. Over more than two decades he has become one of the region's most recognised immigration solicitors, handling everything from first-time spouse visas to the most complex refused and appealed cases.
His approach is personal by design. Clients deal directly with their solicitor, not a rotating team, which means clear advice, consistent communication, and applications prepared with genuine attention to detail. It's an approach that shows: a high percentage of our clients are referred by people we've helped before.
Beyond the firm, Liaquat chairs the Ethnic Diversity Solicitors Group and has long championed equality and diversity in the legal profession across the North East.
