The pair reunite after previously working together at global immigration provider Fragomen.
Alex Finch is known for his ‘technical skill and pragmatic advice’ and brings broad experience advising global companies, SMEs, private clients and family offices. His practice spans sponsored work, licence applications, personal immigration, and complex nationality claims. Ranked in The Best Lawyers in the United Kingdom™ and Chambers’ Immigration: High Net Worth Individuals directory, he is described as ‘an authority, always a step ahead solving problems’.
Rebecca Tester joins with over 14 years of corporate immigration experience, having advised clients across sectors including finance, healthcare and technology. She supports businesses on sponsor licence compliance, strategic immigration planning and investment-led applications. Previously Head of Immigration at Gateley Legal, she is a member of the Immigration Law Practitioners’ Association and International Bar Association.
Managing partner John Hayes said: ‘Our ability to recruit two partners of Alex and Rebecca’s reputations and experience is a testament to how far Constantine Law has come… this blend of experience, depth and agility continues to set us apart from other firms.’ The appointments bring the firm’s partner count to 18, with 25 fee earners in total.
