Compensation Claims Against Public Authorities
Farleys Solicitors LLP specialise in representing people who feel that they have been falsely detained or badly treated by the authorities. Public funding is available for civil claims against detaining authorities in the UK. The Legal Services Commission has granted a franchise to Farleys Solicitors LLP to undertake this specialist area of work.
Our solicitors specialise in claims and complaints against public authorities including,
- The Police
- HM Prison Service
We can advise you about the police complaints procedure including all stages of a police complaint whether this is dealt with locally or through the Independent Police Complaints Commission. In addition we can also advise on any claim for compensation in the following areas:
- Wrongful Arrest
- Unlawful Imprisonment
- Assault
- Malicious Prosecution
- Misfeasance in Public Office
The Legal Services Commission granted a franchise to Farleys Solicitors LLP to undertake this specialist area of work in 2004 and we are therefore able to advise clients about the availability of public funding at an early stage in their case. Where public funding is available you may not have to pay any legal fees.

Complaints and Claims Against the Local Authority
Farleys also act for young children who are, or have been, in the care of the local authority and have been subject to failings by them. This may be in relation to claims for Criminal Injuries Compensation which have not been submitted by the local authority or for claims of negligence against the local authority for their failure to protect or care adequately for the children. Farleys act closely with the Official Solicitor in these matters where the child is under the age of 18.
