Public nuisance covers situations where an activity or condition on one person’s property or land unreasonably interferes with a right of the public or a large section of the public, such as pollution, noise, smells, or other disturbances that affect the community at large. A solicitor specialising in public nuisance might advise organisations facing potential claims or defend actions brought by the public or local authorities, reviewing evidence, drafting affidavits and statements, and assisting with court applications in the High Court or the county courts. They may also assess regulatory interactions and liaise with local councils and environmental bodies.
Public nuisance claims involve proving that the activity is not just harmful to a private individual but affects the public at large or a section of the public, and that the nuisance is actionable under law. A solicitor provides professional oversight, including regulatory accountability, and prepares the necessary pleadings and evidence to support or defend such actions in court, ensuring enforceable remedies where appropriate.
