A solicitor acts on the applicant's behalf.
If not for "magic", why did your spouse hire a solicitor to make an application for leave to remain when he was no longer "studying" and must have been aware that he did not qualify for extending his stay in the UK as a Tier 4 migrant?
Today you can go back and put the entire blame on the solicitor and claim "we had no knowledge of what the solicitor did", perhaps because it seems the most convenient option, but that does not absolve the applicant to not be responsible/accountable for his/her own immigration application.
IMHO ....
Life isn't fair, but you can be!
