Jonathan Greer has notable experience in matters relating to deprivation of citizenship and individuals resisting removal and is very popular with clients.
Sarah Cook supported me with C100 court hearings, covering three key issues; living arrangements, the child's surname and their school. She had a fantastic holistic understanding of the case, knew its strengths and weaknesses, and prepared strong counter arguments. The outcome was a joint 'lives with' order alongside a double barrelling of my child's surname.
