OUR HISTORY
In 2002, Jing ZHOU set out the immigration service that was the start of “Annota Immigration.
From the beginning, Annota Immigration was determined to help immigrants to integrate into Australian society, It provided free tools as well as adequate local knowledge for immigrants to apply to their individual situations.

From 2015, when one-third of the Australian were born overseas, the challenge associated with immigrants has become broader and more complex. The imminent needs for first-generation immigrants were to catch up with the growth opportunities in the Australian fast-growing economy. We recognised this challenge faced by immigrant and teamed up as Expatlawyers to provide all-around services to Australian immigrants.
Expatlayers look at the issues beyond just Australia visa, extend to business, property transaction, property development, work injury, immigrant tax planning, defending unjustified deportation, contract disputes, family issues with overseas ties and assets protection with divorce, e.g.
We have grown into the capacity to defend all rights of Australian immigrants and resulted in numerous success in Australian Courts or Tribunals.
With years of practical experience, we are equipped with practical strategies to meet the legal demand of immigrants for their personal and business development.
