I am autistic and sometimes struggle with communication, so dealing with legal issues can be particularly stressful. The team kept communication clear, simple, and easy to understand, which made the whole process much easier for me to manage.

5 STAR commitment, from a 5 star solicitor.

Alyssia was assigned to our case on request. She was nothing short of being a truly professional, caring and patient person. Straight away on introduction, all she had was our best interests at heart. Alyssia went through the whole process with us, left nothing out. It was lovely also for a professional to actually allow you to speak without interruption. Alyssia remembered everything she heard, again showing true commitment to her clients, listening is important. If anyone is ever looking for someone who know the law, then Alyssia comes highly recommended without hesitation.

I cannot recommend Elliot Smallshaw at DPP Law highly enough. Elliot recently represented me in relation to a judicial review concerning a decision by the IOPC, and I was extremely impressed with both the quality of his work. Elliot was communicative, approachable and clear. He took the time to explain the legal process and the issues involved in a way that was easy to understand, and I felt well informed about what was happening and what the next steps were. The pre-action correspondence he prepared on my behalf was exceptional. It was thorough, meticulously argued and extremely well written, and demonstrated an impressive grasp of both the facts of my case and the relevant legal issues. Following Elliot’s pre-action letter, the IOPC conceded a large number of the points that had been challenged. Legal proceedings can be daunting, complex and stressful, but having a solicitor who communicates properly, explains things clearly and gives you confidence that your case is being handled with real care and expertise makes a huge difference. I have also used DPP Law for other actions against the police and have consistently received an extremely high standard of representation from the firm. My experiences with DPP have given me a great deal of confidence in them, and they would always be my first choice for any future issues of this nature. I am truly grateful to Elliot for everything he did for me and for the standard of representation I received. He is clearly an exceptionally capable solicitor, and I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending both Elliot personally and DPP Law more broadly, particularly to anyone dealing with police accountability, public law or judicial review proceedings.

Hi Gemma, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a detailed and generous review! It is always a genuine pleasure working with you. Public law and judicial review matters against bodies like the IOPC require tremendous precision, so we are thrilled to hear that Elliot's meticulous pre-action work secured such major concessions. Knowing that Elliot’s clear advice and approachable manner gave you confidence throughout, and that you continue to trust DPP Law across your matters, means the world to the whole team. I’ll make sure Elliot sees your fantastic feedback. Thank you again for your continued support and recommendation! Kind regards, DPP Law

Personal Injury

DPP Law helped me greatly throughout my case involving a severe injury at work. In July 2023, I suffered a fall from a ladder at work causing a deep cut to my thumb which cut through tendons. This resulted in hospital treatment, 4 operations over the span of 2 years as well as 58 weeks of physiotherapy. Understandably, this also had a major toll on my mental health, something that DPP Law greatly assisted me with a great deal of reassurance and support throughout. Once in touch with DPP Law, I was introduced to Mr Paul Burns and after hearing about the details of my accident, he gave me the hope and the encouragement that he would take this case and fight to the end. This case endured 3 years, during which Mr Paul Burns would consistently keep in touch, always giving me that hope I needed to get through the case as well as constantly keeping me aware of any developments throughout. The service was exceptional throughout my entire experience with DPP Law. The solicitors were always helpful, reassuring and professional which gave me confidence in my case achieving the result I desired. All members of staff were uplifting, in particular the woman at reception who was consistently very polite and welcoming. Overall, I would highly recommend DPP Law to anyone. I have nothing but praise for their relieving character, professionalism and brilliant expertise within their respective field, as well as the immaculate building. DPP Law helped me greatly through an immensely tough time and I am confident that they could do this for anyone in any scenario. I am extremely grateful for the support I received from the whole team.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a moving and detailed review. Enduring four surgeries, intensive rehabilitation, and the heavy mental toll of a serious workplace injury over three years is an immense challenge. Knowing that Paul Burns provided not only the legal expertise to fight your corner but also the steady encouragement, reassurance, and clear updates you needed during such a difficult period means everything to us. We are also delighted to hear your lovely words about our reception team and the rest of the office. Making sure every client feels warmly welcomed, heard, and supported from the moment they contact us is central to how we work. We will make sure to pass your heartfelt gratitude directly to Paul and the whole team, they will be incredibly proud to read this. Thank you for placing your trust in DPP Law and for your wonderful recommendation. Kind regards, DPP Law

Actions against the police

Alex Nelmes has just successfully settled a claim against Sussex Police on my behalf arising from an unlawful arrest in December 2024. From start to finish, Alex handled the case with exceptional professionalism, meticulous attention to detail, and a clear commitment to achieving the best possible outcome. Her work was consistently thorough, her advice intelligent, well-reasoned and carefully considered, and I always felt confident that my case was in extremely capable hands. Communication was excellent throughout. Alex kept me updated at every stage of the process, responded promptly to my queries, and dealt with everything efficiently and proactively. As an activist for more than ten years, my rights have been violated by various police forces on more occasions than I care to remember. As a result,I’ve consulted and instructed a number of firms specialising in actions against the police, and can say without hesitation that DPP Law is by far the best I have ever worked with. Their expertise in this field is second to none, but just as importantly, they genuinely care about holding public authorities to account and protecting the rights of ordinary people. I cannot recommend Alex or DPP Law highly enough, and am immensely grateful for the invaluable work they do in defending our civil liberties and ensuring that those in positions of power can be challenged when they get a bit too big for their jackboots! Thank you again, Alex.
