A Law Firm For Life
Police forces and officers perform a crucial role in society, and for the most part perform it well.
But with that role comes great responsibilities to protect and serve the public. As in similar walks of life, that duty is sometimes neglected, and can result in serious distress, injury or wrongful arrest.
Experts In Handling Actions Against The Police
If you believe that you’ve been subject to wrongful police action, Irwin Mitchell can help you pursue a claim for compensation or damages.
We have pursued a number of high profile cases in the past by those who have been mistreated by the police or subject to police negligence.

We can also help you if you feel that the police may have violated your rights through the abuse or misuse of ‘stop and search’ procedures.
