Claims Against the Police

 

How can I fund a civil claim against the police?

 

Duncan Lewis Action Against Public Authorities solicitors accept actions against the police on a no win no fee basis, depending on the likelihood of success in a case.

 

For claims where a no win no fee arrangement is not possible, we offer competitively-priced rates for privately funded cases and can also advise on After the Event (ATE) insurance policies to fund claims against the police.

 

What civil claims can I bring against the police?

 

We regularly advise on police civil claims, including:

 

  • Wrongful arrest and unlawful detention
  • Malicious prosecution
  • Failure to investigate an offence
  • Harassment by police officers
  • Unlawful stop and search
  • Assault or use of excessive force by police officers
  • Discrimination: sex, race and disability
  • Unlawful police cautions
  • Data Protection: Breach of Privacy rights
  • Adverse criminal record certificates (“CRB checks” or “DBS checks”)
  • Negligence
  • Misfeasance
  • Protest
  • Judicial review of decisions by the police and IOPC (formerly IPCC)
