A London firm built on justice and liberty

Cromwell Wilkes is a London firm specialising in immigration law, human rights and business law. We provide expert advice and representation to individual and corporate clients, in the UK and overseas.

From a kitchen table, in 2013

Cromwell Wilkes was founded in 2013 by Richard Roberts, after years of working in social welfare, immigration and criminal law. Earlier that year Richard was awarded the Outstanding Contribution to Law award for World Refugee Day.

The award inspired the creation of Cromwell Wilkes, which he began from his kitchen table, meeting clients at home and in coffee shops, and built from there.

Cromwell and Wilkes

Cromwell Wilkes takes its name from two historical figures, Oliver Cromwell and John Wilkes. Both men, though conflicted and flawed individuals, nonetheless made notable contributions to matters concerning justice and liberty.

Cromwell in defending the rights of Parliament in defiance of the monarch, and Wilkes in promoting the rights of the individual against the arbitrary power of the state. It is that inheritance, standing up for the individual against overreaching power, that the firm carries into its work today.

Who we are

We are a London based firm specialising in the fields of immigration law, human rights, and business law. Cromwell Wilkes provides expert legal advice and representation to individual and corporate clients in both the UK and overseas.

Our team offers professional, confidential help to non-citizens, whatever their legal status. We hold ourselves to a high standard of client care, in the finest traditions of classical English manners and service.

We create pathways towards security and stability

Our knowledge of Home Office policy, UK and European law means we can set out the alternatives open to you, your business, a close family member or friend to gain entry to or remain in the UK. Our team has been advising businesses and individuals on all aspects of UK immigration and nationality law for almost ten years. We have an established reputation for delivering exceptional client service combined with clear strategic immigration advice.

What sets us apart from other firms is that we pride ourselves on maintaining a relationship with our clients. Besides business, we genuinely care about ensuring that the people we work with have the best experience, even after their case has closed. Whether it is confusion over tax, problems with parking tickets, or assistance getting tickets to a Premier League game, we are always happy to provide a helpful service.

The promise behind every case we take

We are selective on purpose. It is what lets us stand behind the cases we do take on.

  1. We don't take cases we can't win

    We turn down cases we do not believe in. If we take yours on, it is because we expect to succeed.

  2. If we act, we are confident

    When our assessment says a case can be won and we agree to represent you, that is our considered judgement, not a sales pitch.

  3. Refused? We go to court for you, free of charge

    If a case we took on is refused, we take it to appeal at no extra cost. That is our guarantee to you.

For any immigration matter where attention to detail is essential, I can genuinely recommend this firm. Their professionalism and expertise give complete confidence that everything is handled correctly and efficiently.
