With a vision for global expansion, Immigration Advice Service Ltd (IAS) is delighted to announce its first branch in Lagos, Nigeria. In-person services officially commenced on October 3, 2023 at our office address 42 Saka Tinubu, Victoria island, Lagos, following an appointment-only model to ensure each case receives the focused attention it deserves.

Building on a Rich Heritage

Our new Lagos office marks an exciting chapter in IAS’s expansion story. Established in 2011, the firm has exponentially grown to become one of the leading global extensive immigration service providers. Apart from Nigeria, we have also recently opened new offices in three other countries, demonstrating our unrelenting desire for rapid growth. Known for our expertise and empathy, the Lagos office launch is an organic extension of our commitment to offering highly personalised, effective services.

Why Nigeria and Why Now?

In recognising the aspirations of countless Nigerians eager to broaden their horizons, we see a pressing need for nuanced, reliable advice on immigration matters. Our presence in Lagos aims to serve as a beacon of trusted guidance, helping individuals, families, and businesses understand and navigate the often complex immigration process. While commencing operations in Lagos, we’re fully committed and well-positioned to make our service accessible to all Nigerians nationwide.

What Sets Us Apart

Our uniqueness lies in our core values: decades of expertise in immigration law and a multilingual team that speaks over 30 languages – breaking the cultural and language barriers in the legal practice and allowing us to provide clients with tailored, solution-driven services, regardless of their backgrounds.

Additionally,  we are a brand trusted for delivering high-quality service. We offer tailored Pre-Action Protocol Letters with an excellent track record of high success rate, due to our dedicated efforts in resolving disputes with the UK Home Office.

About Immigration Advice Service Ltd

IAS was established in July 2011, filling the vacuum created when two of the UK’s largest charities offering immigration advice – Refugee and Migrant Justice Centre and Immigration Advisory Service – went into administration due to cuts in public funding. We have since grown from a four-member team in Manchester to 200 staff members across the world.

The firm provides services to private clients as well as beneficiaries of Legal Aid contracts in various UK regions, including Manchester, Liverpool, Leeds, Sheffield, Birmingham, Leicester, London, Bristol, Newcastle, and Derby. Internationally, we operate in the United States, Canada, Ireland, South Africa, and Nigeria. Our work spans the gamut of immigration, asylum, and domestic violence cases, making a significant positive impact on vulnerable communities. As we bring our high-quality, empathetic approach to Lagos, we are delighted to enhance immigration service experience for the Nigerian community.
