Prison Law


Our firm has particular specialised skill in providing advice and representation for those in prison.

Judicial Review- We have been responsible for taking a large number of Judicial reviews on prison conditions, access to lawyers for prisoners and challenges to internal disciplinary hearings. We were responsible for the Judicial Review in which the High court declared “slopping out” unlawful.

Parole Commissioners (Lifers) -Our firm has extensive experience in appearing before the Parole Commissioners (formerly the Life Sentence Review Board) and has the distinction of taking the first case under the then, new. Life Sentence regime in 2001 and the first case under the Sentence Review commissioners (release under the terms of the Good Friday Agreement). We have built up vast knowledge of the practice and procedure in these cases and can assist all prisoners in these circumstances.

Parole Commissioners (Ordinary) – since the introduction of the Criminal Justice Act 2008 we have been representing clients in both written submissions and oral hearings before the Commissioners and have been able to secure the early release of a large number of clients.
