Our Knowledge, Your Business
Our government, its agents and other public bodies must act according to certain rules of conduct, and the role of public law is to make sure they abide by these rules. Under such rules, businesses and trade bodies are entitled to be treated as fairly as private individuals - so if you feel that you have been unfairly or unjustly treated by the government, its agents and other public bodies, Irwin Mitchell can help.
Experts In Public Law
Our Public Law team can challenge government or the European Commission when the regulatory zeal of these bodies goes too far. We can also help your business to build a case against any bodies that fail in their duty, if their actions have had a detrimental effect on your business.
For the most part, public bodies fulfill their responsibility to serve the public in accordance with the law. Occasionally though, businesses may feel that their rights have been breached. Whatever the cause, the effect can be highly damaging, and we work for a rapid, discrete resolution. If necessary, we will seek decisive action in court.
Irwin Mitchell’s Public Law team has diverse interests and comprehensive expertise gained from acting for businesses, institutions and individuals – and we will build strong, intelligent cases for your organisation. Our experience extends to appearances at the European Court of Human Rights and the European Court of Justice.
Where Public Law crosses over into other disciplines, we can draw on the knowledge of experts from across the firm, including our fraud and regulatory investigation team and our commercial litigation solicitors.
