DPP Law Ltd

I’ve worked with a number of lawyers in actions against the police thus am only too aware of the importance of instructing a conscientious solicitor with expertise and experience in this area.

From my first conversation with John regarding a malicious and unlawful arrest by Norfolk Constabulary, I felt confident I’d made the right choice. John is affable and professional, and handled my case intelligently and meticulously. He skilfully navigated the complex and protracted legal systems to achieve a substantial amount in damages.

Prior to suing the police, I’d made a complaint to their so-called “Professional Standards” department, and during the course of their “investigation” they failed to consider (and in fact completely omitted) key material evidence I wouldn’t have even known existed, but which clearly proved police liability.

This appeared to be a cynical exploitation of my lack of procedural knowledge as a laywoman, and I’m grateful to John for not only exposing these extensive disclosure issues, but going above and beyond in addressing them with the IOPC on my behalf.

As the police continue to police themselves, it’s apparent that a civil claim is often the only chance of redress. The outcome has given me a sense of justice and vindication, and I’m really pleased to hear John intends to document this lawsuit via partner Iain Gould’s website blog (which I follow with great interest), bringing much needed publicity to the ongoing abuses of power by Norfolk Constabulary.

I’m grateful to John and the rest of the team at DPP Law for the first class service. Their work in police accountability is invaluable, and I didn’t hesitate in instructing John on a more recent case against the same force.

Ewan did an amazing job for me from start to finish. He kept me informed at all times was very professional at all times and nothing was ever too much trouble. All staff when I phoned the office were very polite and helpful. Would definitely recommend to other people

I am so pleased that I chose DPP Law to handle my claim. I am even happier that Aidan took my case. From start to finish he was excellent. He was proactive and so knowledgeable. I went into this feeling very daunted, but he always had a calm way about him. His attitude is wonderful. The case for me was never really financial compensation, but an apology and recognition. Aidan completely understood that and fought for it until the very end. He genuinely wanted that for me. It was always a pleasure to speak to Aidan. He made a very difficult situation easier and I will always be grateful for that. I liked him and I trusted him and that was critical. I would have no hesitation in using DPP again.

I slipped on a wet patch in a supermarket and was put in contact with Paul Burns by a colleague. Paul listened to me and I found him to be approachable and very knowledgeable. My favourite bit of the engagement letter was paraphrased" I will be honest with you even if it is something you may not want to hear" I will recommend DPP to my family and friends

I've worked with a number of solicitors in my life, Aiden is by far the best. Aiden believes in strong principals of justice, he brought this to my situation and case. I can't tell you how much he cared about me and my case, both Aiden and his organorganiation really supported me through this and other cases. Aiden became like a friend to me. His letters and conact with the defendant with always on point and he always checked every part with me and welcomed my input which was fantastic. Aiden resolved my case to a level that was beyond satisfactory. He got justice for me both emotionally and financially and physically in the form of the resolution. I can't thank him and his team for the difference they've made in my life! Highly recommend Aiden as an individual and a solicitor. Very pleased.

Following a work injury Paul provided the necessary legal information and assistance to pursue a successful claim.
