Actions against the police

The police perform a very challenging role in society. For the most part, they undertake this role extremely professionally. When they don’t, Masons Law can help you decide what to do and how to pursue a negligence claim.

Masons Law can advise anyone who feels the police have somehow acted unprofessionally or negligently. You may have reason to claim for wrongful arrest or police mistreatment. It may be that excessive force was used or your rights have been violated, such as excessive ‘stop and search’ procedures. Whatever the cause, if the consequence was distress or injury, you need to understand what your rights are, and what options you have to seek compensation or damages.

Our expert lawyers can advise you on what to do and how to do it. Masons Law has some of the best lawyers in the UK who successfully deal with negligence claims. They will support you throughout your case, explaining information simply so that you understand. We make sure you are kept up-to-date so that any decisions you take are made knowing what options you have, and the likely consequences of each.

Expert legal advice you can rely on

Consumer rights

You undoubtedly expect life’s daily routine to run smoothly, but sometimes dealing with other people, commercial businesses and public organisations doesn’t go to plan. If so, then don’t suffer on your own; you have consumer rights that are there to support you, which means taking legal advice can often help resolve issues whenever you feel badly done to.

Community care issues

When adults have special care needs, the local authority is often responsible for providing community care services to help support the individual in their daily life. Community care services can include services provided in your own home, or at another location within the community.

Consumer issues - goods and services

As consumers, most of us buy goods and services from companies on a daily basis. And it’s right to expect these to reach an acceptable standard. When they do not, you have legal rights as a consumer to protect you.

Data protection

In today’s modern world, many companies hold sensitive information about individuals – from bank details and contact information to medical information. Whilst companies may need this information to provide us with services or employment, they have a duty to ensure that our information is not misused or shared with the wrong people.

Freedom of information

Public authorities hold a vast amount of information on a wide range of topics. The Freedom of Information Act gives the public the right to access this information. This means you have the right to ask any public sector organisation to provide all of the recorded information they hold on any particular subject.

Human rights and discrimination

As humans, we have particular rights that ensure we can expect to live and be treated in certain ways. These human rights are protected by law. Examples of human rights in the UK include the right to life, the right to an education and the right to a fair trial.

Professional negligence

When you ask a professional for advice, that’s what you expect. But what if that advice causes you problems or losses? Surveyors, architects, solicitors and accountants are all bound by professional standards and owe you a duty of care and skill. So, if there advice is negligent you have the right to make a claim, and that’s where we can help.
