This area covers challenges to public authority decisions and actions, such as decisions of government ministers, regulators, planning authorities and other public bodies, where a court reviews legality, fairness and procedure. A solicitor practising in Administrative Litigation drafts and issues judicial review applications, prepares grounds of challenge and evidence bundles, negotiates with public bodies, and represents clients in hearings or appeals in the High Court and Court of Appeal. They also advise on remedies, including interim measures, and manage the overall litigation path, from permission to remedy.
What a solicitor handles in these matters
In these matters a solicitor handles complex pleadings, permission applications, a detailed review of decision-making processes, and the preparation of evidence for court scrutiny. They coordinate with regulators and government departments, assemble documentary records, and navigate procedural timetables, evidence rules, and possible remedies such as quashing orders or judicial review outcomes.
