Brexit legal advice

Following the referendum on 23 June 2016, in which 51.9% of United Kingdom (UK) voters decided to leave the European Union (EU), the UK government invoked Article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty on 29 March 2017 to terminate the UK’s membership of the EU.

Take a look at our interactive Brexit video where Rajiv Malhotra covers the general aspects and Chris Brazier on settled status, the new immigration procedure for EU nationals to remain in Britain.
