Key contacts

Pavol Kehl has been advising foreign clients since 2010. Since 2015 he has been a fully qualified attorney registered with the Czech Bar Association. He is an expert on immigration law when it comes to preparing appeals, dealing with clients who happened to be illegaly in Czech Republic or for whom the Ministry of Interior gave notice of their intention to cancel a request for asylum or residence.

 

Pavol’s practical experience, gained from hundreds of appeals against the Ministry of Interior and Foreign Police all across the Czech Republic – and the repeating nature of the situations in which foreigners become entangled – allow him to better estimate the result of a process.

 

Appeals may be launched for any kind of residence – long-term residence, permanent residence, blue or employee cards, etc. If you come after your stated deadline, Pavol is skilled in launching actions against the declined appeals as it is possible you could be granted residence until the process is over. He has helped many clients in conflicts with the Ministry of Interior request a bridging visa and has succeeded in having some departure orders by the MOI cancelled, including when the decision by the Ministry is unlawful.

 

Pavol is also an expert in criminal defense, having dealt often with drug offences, DWI, assaults and other criminal offenses. It is very important to deal with criminal issues properly since they can cause problems with your residence matters as well.
