Character Issues & Criminal Records
How we can help
Our lawyers specialise in complex character and cancellation matters under s 501 of the Migration Act 1958 and regularly act for clients facing:
- Notices of Intention to Refuse or Notices of Intention to Consider Cancellation (NOICC);
- Mandatory cancellations and requests for revocation;
- Adverse character assessments arising from conduct, criminal charges or convictions.
If you’ve received a notice or decision, our specialists can explain your options in plain English, prepare persuasive submissions with supporting evidence, and represent you before the Department of Home Affairs, the Administrative Appeals Tribunal, and the Federal Courts.
