SPEAKERS
Helen Baron
Helen Baron is a solicitor at Deighton Pierce Glynn. I am a Public Law Solicitor working on migrant rights claims. I represent asylum seekers in cases involving their accommodation and financial support, whether against the Home Office or local authorities. I represented the Claimants in a recent case of SB and SBO, in which the Court re-affirmed the legal position regarding the division of responsibilities between local authorities and the Home Office as regards adult asylum seekers with care needs.
