OUR HISTORY
In 2002, Jing ZHOU set out the immigration service that was the start of the “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 2003 Jing ZHOU started to publish columns in Australian newspapers to address the issues that concerned Australian immigrants which mainly explained local terms and nomes in a way that you don’t have to be a lawyer to understand.
From 2015, when one-third of Australian were born from overseas, the challenge associated with immigrants has become broader and complex. The imminent needs of the first-generation immigrants were to catch up with the growth opportunities in the Australian fast-growing economy. We recognised this challenge faced by immigrants and teamed up as Expatlawyers to provide all-around services to Australian immigrants.
Expatlawyers dare to look at the issues beyond just Australian visa, but extend to business, property transaction, property development, work injury, immigrant tax planning, unjustified deportation, contract disputes, family issues with clients with overseas ties, and overseas assets protection from divorce, e.g.
We have now grown into the capacity to defend all rights of Australian immigrants and have achieved numerous success in Australian Courts or Tribunals.
With years of practical experience, we are equipped with practical strategies to meet the legal demands of immigrants for their personal and business developments.
