Inquests
The loss of a family member or friend can be very distressing. The process can be made even more difficult, if the loss is unexpected and without an obvious explanation. When this happens, the case may be referred to a Coroner. We can help you gain a better understanding of the inquest process, make contact with the Coroner’s office and ensure your voice is heard. We will analyse the evidence and if necessary, obtain second opinions on the evidence. We will also represent you at the inquest hearing asking questions to assist the Coroner.
Unauthorised encampments
Finding an unauthorised encampment on your land is a stressful experience. To find that you may also need to have it removed at your own expense via the civil courts, can add distress to an already worrying situation.
If the initial response from the police is that they cannot assist, contact our specialist team for further advice on your options to proceed before you accept the situation.
Higher education
There are many regulatory (and potentially criminal) issues in the higher education sector that you could find yourself faced with which can have far-reaching implications on your future and (depending on the facts of the matter) may lead to a criminal investigation.
Should you find yourself facing disciplinary procedures or confronted with an alleged transgression, it is important to seek professional and specialised legal advice.
We have experience representing both students and professionals working within the sector.
