Alina is a dedicated immigration caseworker, providing support to our specialist immigration team. She primarily works with individuals navigating the complexities of the immigration process in Scotland. She specialises in supporting clients through their naturalisation process, helping people at the final stages of their immigration journey in the UK. She also supports clients with Global Talent Visas, which are a popular choice for professionals in tech, art, and academia, as they provide successful applicants the freedom to pursue their career goals without the sponsorship constraints relevant to other visa routes.
In her role, Alina ensures a positive client experience by answering enquiries, assisting with onboarding, and ensuring a smooth and stress-free application process. With a background in asylum cases, Alina brings a client-led approach to her work. She understands the emotional toll of immigration processes and prioritises empathetic and reliable communication to support clients throughout their application.
Alina holds an LLB from the University of Glasgow and an LLM from the University of Edinburgh, specialising in Human Rights law. A native Russian speaker, she provides additional support to clients who may benefit from her language skills.
