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.

Where a solicitor protects your position

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.
