Land Mark Cases
The Department represented the parents
of Stephen
Lawrence (Neville and Doreen Lawrence) in their claim for personal
injuries against the Metropolitan Police Service following conclusions
reached in the MacPherson Report (February 1999) that the investigation
into Stephen's death was fraught with incompetence. The Department
also successfully represented the family of Dr. Joan Francisco.
The case made English legal history as it was the first time that
a civil case of murder had been brought without there being any
previous criminal proceedings.
