With more than 15 years of experience in UK immigration law, Natasha advises clients across industries such as technology, media, energy and financial services. She is known for her strategic approach to managing large-scale immigration programs, optimizing their efficiency, benchmarking them against competitors and ensuring they align with talent attraction and retention goals.

Natasha takes pride in being a trusted partner to her clients, acting as an extension of their teams and providing guidance that goes beyond transactional solutions. Her focus is on understanding her clients’ broader business objectives, enabling her to craft long-term, impactful strategies.

Following Brexit, Natasha continues to help businesses adapt to the evolving immigration landscape, particularly by introducing innovative solutions such as the Talent Beyond Boundaries (TBB) program. This initiative enables clients to access a new talent pool, sponsor skilled individuals for critical roles and address skills shortages in a proactive way.

In addition to her corporate work, Natasha oversees Fragomen’s London-based private client team, advising high-net-worth individuals on naturalization, settlement and EU settled status applications.

She also leads the firm’s UK pro bono program, which supports initiatives like family reunification, philanthropic advisory projects and government partnerships aimed at improving immigration pathways. Her work with TBB includes both client-focused advisory services and broader government engagement to support the program’s success.

Before joining Fragomen, Natasha gained significant litigation experience in immigration, asylum, human rights and public law, representing clients before the Immigration and Asylum Tribunal, in judicial reviews and at the European Court of Human Rights.

Recognized for her deep technical knowledge, Natasha is a sought-after speaker and panelist at industry events. She also leads a team of 50 professionals, providing mentorship and fostering a culture of excellence and collaboration.
