Top 10 of 187 law firms for Police negligence, Actions against the police

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Police negligence covers claims where someone alleges the police owed a duty of care and failed to meet it, causing harm or loss. A solicitor in this area handles the civil action against a police force, testing breaches of duty, causation and damages. They draft statements of case, gather evidence including police logs and expert reports, issue and defend claims in the county or high court, and negotiate settlements or pursue litigation through to judgment, within strict time limits.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The key is protecting your position when the police are implicated in harm, with time limits, possible interim orders, and the potential for substantial damages if liability is established. A solicitor provides guidance on admissible evidence, evidential reversals, and ensuring compliance with civil procedure and costs rules.

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.

Alex Barley

Tagged solicitor Alex Barley

I have been through a harrowing experience as the result of an accident when hit by a car as a pedestrian. From the moment I met Alex, I felt confident he would be a good choice as my solicitor. He's friendly and approachable, explains things in a straightforward manner and the prompt response to my emails was exceptional. Due to continuous delays in Police investigations there were many times where I felt really despondent but I had total confidence in Alexs' abilities and he didn't let me down. I can't speak highly enough of the way in which he conducted my case. I briefly dealt with another solicitor at Slater Heelis ( Hannah Costley) and she too was a very friendly and approachable individual. Thank you Slater Heelis.

Alice Wood

Tagged solicitor Alice Wood

I contacted Farleys in June/July 2023 seeking support and justice following various breaches by Greater Manchester Police during my unlawful detention in May 2023. Alice and Joseph were there every step of the way and kept me informed during every step of the process. GMP admitted responsibility in the most part for what I experienced and a fair outcome was settled out of court. Farleys helped to take the stress and anxiety out of taking on a Police force.
