Shazia Ali has a wealth of experience at all levels in UK immigration law. She graduated from university and successfully completed her bar exams in 2001/2002. As a newly qualified, she took a role working in a successful, large, high street practice to obtain training, where she covered magistrates courts, police stations and Crown Court hearings.

In 2005 Shazia decided to dual qualify, so she successfully completed her dual qualification to practice as a solicitor and subsequently qualified to practice as a duty solicitor. She gained the majority of her experience in successful high street law firms within the suburbs of London.

She founded Scarsdale Solicitors Ltd 2016 and from day 1 our ethos has always been the following: 'Your Progress, Our Priority'.

Alongside leading the line for the practice, Shazia has also worked with charities such as Rainbow Heaven, UKEFF, Red Cross and Oldham Unity that provide services to the homeless, asylum seekers and people from all sorts of backgrounds. Shazia also supports Rochdale Women's Welfare Association.
