Support When You Need it Most

The effects of criminal or misconduct allegations can be incredibly far-reaching and distressing for police officers. Proceedings are almost always heard in public and can have serious consequences for both your personal and professional lives. This is why seeking specialist legal advice at your earliest opportunity is crucial.

Police law is notoriously complex. To achieve a successful outcome, you will require the involvement of solicitors who possess an in-depth, up-to-date knowledge of protocols and regulations. You will also need to be completely confident you are dealing with a law firm who will defend your interests and provide essential support whenever it is needed.

Our team has acted for senior police officers accused of misconduct or criminal matters — whether they were on duty or not. We have represented clients in high-profile cases which have attracted national coverage and are often politically-sensitive.

From the very beginning, we will offer support whenever it is required. Our solicitors take care of everything for you, including providing an initial assessment of your case and tenaciously defending your interests. We have often been instrumental in securing a positive result for our clients, successfully protecting their professional and personal reputation.

Led by Deborah Britstone, our police law team is highly experienced, knowledgeable, and sought after. No matter if you’re facing investigations from the Professional Standards Department or the Independent Office for Police Conduct, you can rely on us to assist.
