This area covers claims against a public officer for abusing their position or acting beyond or contrary to their lawful duties, causing you loss or harm. A solicitor in this field investigates whether a public officer wrongfully exercised power, breached a duty of care, or acted with improper motive, and then helps you pursue civil remedies. It often involves complex factual and legal questions about accountability, official conduct, and the availability of damages or injunctions.

Why this work is usually handled by a solicitor

Misfeasance in public office arises where a public officer knowingly or recklessly acts unlawfully, causing loss. A solicitor assists by identifying the precise breach of duty, securing necessary evidence, drafting pleadings, and applying for remedies in the High Court or the County Court, including damages or injunctions. They work with you to establish accountability through applicable principles of public law and delict.

As a result of an altercation with a neighbour I was arrested and kept overnight in the cells. I requested legal representation to help and to guide me through this ordeal. A Stryderslaw representative arrived the following morning to help and to represent me and I was immediately reassured and advised as to how to proceed. The case was eventually dropped months later but through out this time I was always able to seek advice and help from my solicitor. Thank you Stryders for your help, advice and reassurance throughout this ordeal.
