Data Protection Solicitors
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.
The Data Protection Act exists to ensure that people’s personal data is handled correctly. Sometimes things can go wrong and a company or employer may break the Data Protection Act. When this happens your personal data may be put at risk.

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
All professionals, including accountants, financial advisors, solicitors and surveyors are bound by professional standards. When a professional’s poor conduct causes serious consequences for you, our professional negligence solicitors can help. We also represent professionals who have had negligence claims made against them.
