AREAS OF PRACTICE
Administrative law
Has a public authority refused your application, left it unanswered or made a decision you disagree with? A lawyer can review the documents and talk through your options.
When to speak to a lawyer
You disagree with a public authority’s decision
We’ll read the decision and discuss the reasons the authority gave. Note when and how you received it.
Your application was refused or you haven’t had a reply
We’ll look at the application, the documents you sent and any official response. Keep the application reference number.
Your case is in administrative court
We’ll review the court papers and discuss where the case stands. If a hearing has been scheduled, note the date and have the notice ready.
What to prepare for your first meeting
- The authority’s decision or official response, if you received one.
- Earlier applications, their reference numbers and any correspondence.
- The dates you received the documents and the time of any scheduled hearing.
