Whose decisions can I challenge At Judicial Review?

Judicial Review is available to challenge decisions made by public bodies that fall outside of their legally defined powers or which do not comply with the established principles of lawful decision making. We can help you challenge decisions made by:

• Government departments
• The NHS and local health authorities
• Magistrates, coroners and county courts
• Local councils (including social services departments)
• Prisons and police forces
• Schools and school governing bodies
• Regulatory and supervisory bodies
• Planning authorities.

You can’t simply challenge a decision because you disagree with it. It must be shown that a public body made the decision unlawfully. We understand that proving that a public body has broken the law can be a daunting prospect but our expert judicial review lawyers will help you put together the strongest case for your claim. We have a long history of success at judicial review.
