Human Rights/Police and Public Law

Taking action against the state or police can be a particularly daunting proposition. We are passionate about human rights and justice for the individual, and have many years experience in conducting complaints and bringing claims to a favourable conclusion.

Successfully acting for the parents of murdered black teenager, Stephen Lawrence, highlighted the exceptional skills of the lawyers in our practice. We act for individuals against the police forces throughout the UK and pride ourselves on winning many claims that other firms have refused to deal with.

We are one of the few firms with a specialist quality mark from the Legal Services Commission in respect of claims against the police. J R Jones is a member of the Police Action Lawyers Group and Inquest.
