Sasha Rozansky

Background

Sasha Rozansky is a paralegal/caseworker.

Sasha was recruited by Pierce Glynn in 2008. Previously, she has worked as refugee and asylum seeker advice worker for the CAB, provided support for unaccompanied minors through a major housing association, managed a busy refugee mental health advice project in Kings Cross, and worked as a social security specialist at the Mary Ward Legal Centre.

Public law, discrimination and human rights

Sasha is experienced in migrant support law. She regularly receives referrals from the Red Cross Refugee Unit, the Refugee Council and the Helen Bamber Foundation. Her current or recent cases include: challenging the amount of financial support Social Services provide for children of asylum seekers; challenging Social Services’ decisions not to support vulnerable asylum seekers who have mental and/or physical health problems; challenging Social Services’ decisions to withdraw support from former unaccompanied minors; and challenging the Home Office’s practice on s.4 support and dispersal.

Sasha also conducts a small caseload of judicial review cases under the supervision of Polly Glynn and Sue Willman. She also assists Sue on her more substantial public law cases.

Social welfare law

Sasha is very experienced in bringing social security appeals, having provided advice and assistance with such appeals since 2002. She now conducts most of the firm’s social security cases before the First-Tier Tribunal and is an experienced advocate. Her social security experience is wide ranging and includes: using EU law, human rights law and anti-discrimination law to challenge DWP decisions refusing EU nationals welfare benefits; and challenging delays with processing benefit claims, particularly child benefit and child tax credit.
