Ghuffar Usman Paragon Law

Paragon Law has appointed Ghuffar Usman as an associate.

Ghuffar joins Paragon’s legal team with more than 12 years experience advising clients on immigration law matters, specialising in all aspects of personal, family and business immigration law.

Ghuffar says: “The Legal Services Act will open up the competition in the legal market from 2012, and I wanted to be part of the team before this time, as Paragon is recognised as a serious player with the strongest position in the niche sector of immigration.”
