Hi Folks.

My name is Nic. I come from Cumbria. Last year I met my Partner Lawrence. In both November last year and in January this year I went to be with him and his family and friends in Manila. As we are sure, devoted and in love with each other we are looking to live together. Unfortunately however I have spent conviction from eight years ago and on asking about this at the Filipino Embassy, providing paperwork records etc They wrote back and informed me that I can't visit the Philippines ever again despite the fact it is spent under the rehabilitation act of 1974. A friend of my partner knows the people who work in immigration and asked them what had happened. They are telling me that I need to clear my name. Well how do I do that if I was convicted? So my question is dose anyone know of a Lawyer in the UK who can help me sort this out? Does anyone know what I can do, if any or is that it?

Thanks for any guidance.
Nic
