Actions Against the Police
Actions Against the Police
Police officers perform a crucial role in society, and for the most part perform it well. Great responsibilities are imposed on the police to serve and protect the public and they are given extensive powers to perform such duties. However these duties are sometimes neglected which can result in injury and distress to innocent members of the public.
If you have been a victim at the hands of the police Chebsey & Co are able to offer specialist legal advice and assistance with both making a complaint against the police including matters referred to the Independent Police Complaints Commission, and with civil actions against the police for compensation or damages.
Examples of the areas we cover include:
- Assault/excessive force
- false imprisonment
- wrongful arrest
- malicious prosecution
- misfeasance in public office
- trespass
- negligence
- breach of the Human Rights Act
- racial discrimination
- harassment and intimidation
- unlawful stop and search
- general police misconduct
- data protection
- breaches of statutory duty
