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.
