About

Provided by Bhatt Murphy

We specialise in representing those who have suffered ill-treatment or abuse of power at the hands of the police and other detaining authorities.


Our aim is to achieve accountability and redress for our clients and to provide high quality advice upon all available legal remedies. We are recognised by policy-makers, opponents but most importantly by our clients, as the leading firm in this field.


The cases we work on address all aspects of mistreatment and unlawful acts against those in custody and encompass false imprisonment and arrest cases, representing victims of unlawful police stop and search, failures to investigate hate crimes and crimes of sexual violence, the policing of protests and demonstrations, inquests and inquiries into custodial deaths, the illegal use and retention of data and the inappropriate use of reprimands and warnings.


Bhatt Murphy’s lawyers appreciate that effective remedies are not achieved through legal intervention alone. We are committed to working with our partners in non-governmental organisations and campaigning groups to try and achieve progress outside of the court room. We also support our clients in their own campaigns by providing advice on how best to achieve public awareness through social media and national and international news agencies.
