This area covers civil claims against police officers for excessive force or unlawful assault. A solicitor helps clients gather evidence such as witness statements, medical records and any CCTV or body‑worn video, then drafts and issues statements of case, applies for interim remedies if needed, and represents the client at court hearings or in negotiations with the Crown Prosecution Service or police insurers. The aim is to obtain damages for injury, distress and loss of liberty, and to hold authorities to account.
The core issue is proving an unlawful or excessive use of force by an officer and establishing the link to harm suffered. A regulated solicitor brings evidence, negotiates settlements, and, if necessary, presents the claim in the county or high court, with attention to preserving evidence, timelines, and any caps on damages.

Lady Justice is meant to be impartial. She is not. She fails miserably daily. Having found myself being dragged through the law courts by Norfolk Constabulary and their crooked Police Constables, I needed expert representation. Slater Heelis Solicitors were highly recommended. Which is where I met Rachel Fletcher. Rachel was not only the light at the end of a very dark tunnel, but she also brought with her a bonfire, burning fiercely with such a sense for justice and integrity. I did not only feel but I knew I was getting the best person for the battle ahead. Rachel and her team- Richard Orme- Rachel Mason-Hunter Grey all fought and got justice for me. With a big smile and a nod, THANK YOU x
