Professional Background & Academic Profile
Qais Husban serves as a Paralegal within Connaught Law's Immigration Department, specialising in UK immigration law across a range of complex and sensitive matters. He assists clients with immigration appeals, human rights and asylum claims, leave to remain and indefinite leave to remain applications, and EU Settlement Scheme submissions — bringing a methodical and client-centred approach to every case he manages.
Qais graduated with an LLB (Hons) from the University of Manchester in 2023, one of the UK's leading Russell Group law schools renowned for the strength and rigour of its legal education. His undergraduate training provided a strong foundation in legal analysis, statutory interpretation, and case law research that directly supports his day-to-day immigration practice. He is currently an SQE candidate, progressing toward qualification as a solicitor in England and Wales — a commitment to professional development that reflects his dedication to building a career of meaningful legal impact.
Originally from Jordan, Qais brings a culturally aware perspective that enriches his client service. His bilingual fluency in Arabic and English enables effective communication with Arabic-speaking clients who benefit from direct, clear dialogue with their legal adviser without the barriers that language differences can introduce during complex immigration proceedings. This linguistic capability, combined with his international background, contributes to a sensitive and empathetic approach that recognises the personal significance of immigration matters for individuals and families navigating the UK legal system.

Immigration Law Experience
Qais assists clients with a wide range of immigration matters, from leave to remain and indefinite leave to remain applications to complex appeals and human rights claims. His approach to case preparation is thorough and organised, ensuring that evidence is clearly presented, documentation is comprehensive, and clients understand each stage of the process. He is known for building strong, trusted relationships with clients by listening carefully, explaining proceedings in plain language, and providing practical guidance that addresses their specific circumstances.
His appeals work encompasses preparation for First-tier Tribunal and Upper Tribunal hearings, including the assembly of appeal bundles, drafting of witness statements, compilation of supporting evidence, and preparation of legal submissions challenging Home Office decisions. Qais understands that immigration appeals often represent a client's most important opportunity to challenge adverse decisions, and he approaches each case with the meticulous attention to detail that these high-stakes proceedings demand.
Qais also supports clients with human rights and asylum claims, assisting individuals who are seeking protection under the Refugee Convention or the European Convention on Human Rights. These cases frequently involve vulnerable clients facing difficult personal circumstances, and Qais brings both legal precision and genuine sensitivity to this area of his practice. His EU Settlement Scheme work supports European nationals and their family members in securing their immigration status following the United Kingdom's departure from the European Union, ensuring applications are properly evidenced and submitted within applicable deadlines.
- Immigration Appeals: First-tier Tribunal and Upper Tribunal appeal preparation including bundle assembly, witness statements, and legal submissions
- Human Rights Claims: Protection-based applications under the ECHR including Article 8 private and family life claims with careful evidential analysis
- Asylum Claims: Refugee Convention protection claims with detailed preparation of asylum narratives, country of origin evidence, and supporting documentation
- Leave to Remain: In-country applications for leave to remain across family, private life, and other immigration routes with comprehensive evidence coordination
- Indefinite Leave to Remain: Settlement applications demonstrating eligibility, continuous residence, and compliance with Immigration Rules requirements
- EU Settlement Scheme: EUSS applications for European nationals and family members securing settled and pre-settled status in the United Kingdom
Client Care & Professional Approach
Qais is known for building strong, trusted relationships with clients by listening carefully to their circumstances, explaining the legal process in plain language, and providing practical guidance at every stage of their matter. He understands that immigration decisions carry profound personal consequences — affecting individuals' ability to live, work, and remain with their families in the United Kingdom — and he approaches each case with the care and attention these circumstances require.
His thorough and organised approach to case preparation ensures that evidence is clearly presented, applications are comprehensive, and clients feel supported and informed throughout their proceedings. Whether preparing a leave to remain application, assembling an appeal bundle for tribunal, or supporting a vulnerable client through an asylum claim, Qais maintains the same high standard of meticulous preparation and transparent communication that clients rely upon during what is often an uncertain and stressful period.
Outside of his legal practice, Qais enjoys padel, follows football as a Manchester United supporter, and is a keen fan of WRC rally — interests that reflect the competitive energy and determination he brings to his professional work at Connaught Law.
Qais's Professional Commitment: Every case reflects Qais's dedication to thorough preparation, clear communication, and genuine client care. His LLB from the University of Manchester, ongoing SQE progression, and bilingual fluency in Arabic and English ensure clients receive organised, culturally sensitive legal support across immigration appeals, human rights claims, settlement applications, and EU Settlement Scheme matters at Connaught Law.
