Citizenship
British citizenship can be obtained due to the length of time that an individual has resided in the UK, or sooner depending on your family ties. As a child you may be able to apply if you were born in the UK, or nationals of other countries may be eligible depending on whether they or their ancestors are/were members of the former British Empire. If you think that you or a family member may be eligible please visit our offices to receive expert, tailored advice from one of our immigration solicitors in either of our London offices.
