We’re pleased to introduce our new website. It’s now easier than ever to discover who we are, explore the work we do, and find out how to make an enquiry about your legal matter.
What we do
Judicial Review and Public Law
When public bodies act unlawfully or unfairly, judicial review is the legal tool to hold them to account and protect people from decisions that can deeply affect their lives. We have one of the best judicial review teams in the UK.
Actions Against the Police and Other Public Authorities
If you’ve suffered harm or discrimination by a public authority, a civil claim can help you seek justice and compensation.
Inquests & Inquiries
Inquests and public inquiries should uncover the truth and hold systems to account. We can help you through these difficult processes with dignity and determination.
Other Areas of Specialism
Much of our work cuts across different case categories. We have specialist expertise in Migrants Rights; Unlawful Detention; Information & Privacy Rights; Group Claims; and International Issues, amongst others.
Why we're here
Clients first

Excellence

Challenging authority
We use the law to empower our clients to challenge abuses, failures, and other unlawful conduct by the government and those with power.
Collective values
We are committed to becoming an anti-racist firm. We work together to make the firm sustainable financially and for each other.
