Harnessing the strengths of its ‘clever, organised, and astute human rights lawyers’, Irwin Mitchell marries public law, health and social care, and civil liberties expertise to provide assistance with actions against the police, prison, and immigration authorities, as well as claims against healthcare, social services, and education providers. Individuals, charities, and NGOs alike rely on the team for in-depth knowledge of human rights and administrative law. Yogi Amin stands at the head of the practice, and deploys decades of experience in the breadth of public law and civil liberties work, with an emphasis on Court of Protection matters. Angela Jackman specialises in mental capacity, education, and human rights, while Fiona McGhie is proficient in actions against the police and local authorities. The ’extremely experienced and knowledgeable’ Andrew Arthur excels in claimant police mandates, and the ‘highly personable’ Juliet Spender enjoys a strong reputation in both traditional civil liberties and cases against welfare authorities.
