An Article 2 inquest covers deaths where the state may have influenced events or where the authorities’ actions require explanation under Article 2 of the European Convention on Human Rights. It focuses on whether the authorities’ obligation to protect life was discharged and what happened in the circumstances surrounding the death. A solicitor practising in this area represents the family or interested parties at the inquest, prepares and submits evidence, calls or cross-examines witnesses, applies for the disclosure of records, and advocates on issues of state accountability. The process is shaped by the coroner system and human rights considerations, with particular attention to the rights of the next of kin and the status of any essential evidence.

“Kelly and her team were amazing from beginning to end of my son's inquest. They promptly returned contact if they weren't available straight away. But whoever took the phone calls would always give you reassurance and support. They put so much time into my son's case making sure we got the best possible outcome. Always keeping us updated. They are a warm and friendly team and treat you as if you could be one of their own family members. We as a family were thoroughly looked after! I would and have recommended Farley's to anyone that wants the best care in their case.”

They help identify responsible authorities, liaise with medical and investigative bodies to obtain post-m mortem results, and handle disclosures and disclosure requests under relevant rules.
