Top 10 of 188 law firms for Actions against the police, Personal

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Claims against the police in England include civil causes such as assault and battery, false imprisonment, negligence, misfeasance in public office and malicious prosecution, and Human Rights Act 1998 breaches arising from stop‑and‑search, arrest, custody, use of force or data mishandling. A solicitor collects and preserves body‑worn camera footage, custody records, police notebooks, witness statements and medical reports; applies for disclosure and interim remedies in the County Court or High Court; makes complaints to the Independent Office for Police Conduct or to a chief constable; and represents clients in civil hearings and coronial inquests. Public‑law judicial review and data protection claims often run alongside tortious causes of action or settlement negotiations.

Victoria Rees

Tagged solicitor Victoria Rees

The support and professional advice given me by Victoria Rees and Richard Etherington has been enormously helpful. Their communications have been clear, detailed and containing of my anxieties in relation to a difficult professional situation. Their assistance over several months has been in the form of emails, phone-calls and liaison with the police on my behalf. They were patient with my lack of knowledge of legal processes and systems and took time to clarify that I understood what might happen, including the options available to me. They were able to contain many of my anxieties and I felt very well supported. Overall they have provided an excellent service, for which I am most grateful.

Jen Law

Tagged solicitor Jen Law

I was recently required to attend a voluntary interview at a police station. After comparing local law firms I decided to proceed with Slee Blackwell based on reviews and the service received upon enquiry (others were quite rude) . I was represented by Jen Law. Very impressed with the level of professionalism and knowledge from Jen. All potential outcomes were meticulously assessed and the advice received was excellent. Luckily Jens time was covered under the free advice at police stations scheme however if this was not the case I would of happily paid based on the level of service received. I highly recommend Jen Law and Slee Blackwell should anyone be needing legal advice.

Hannah Costley

Tagged solicitor Hannah Costley

I recently engaged Hannah Costley after being asked to attend a voluntary police interview. Having never been in trouble of any kind before I was incredibly distressed, Hannah recognised this and was proactive in immediately making contact with the police and taking as much of the stress away as she could. Hannah was understanding, compassionate and most importantly she listened to me. Her advice was broken down in a clear and concise way so that I had a clear understanding of next steps and she kept me fully up to date with where things were upto. Thankfully and no doubt thanks to Hannah's representations the matter was closed hours after my interview however Hannah continued to advocate for me after the fact when the police tried to impose unfair conditions. When already in a very distressing situation it can feel even more overwhelming having to reach out to a legal representative for help for fear of being judged however I can assure anyone finding themselves in a similar situation to the one I was in, after just the first few minutes of speaking with Hannah you will feel completely supported and the burden will feel less! I can't thank you or recommend you enough Hannah!

Adrienne Wright

Tagged solicitor Adrienne Wright

Although only TV Edwards attended the voluntary police interview with me, the solicitor present was highly professional, knowledgeable about the procedures, and provided clear, well-structured guidance for the interview. This preparation helped me feel more confident and ready for the questions ahead. After the interview, the solicitor thoroughly explained my next steps and reassured me of their ongoing support throughout .
