Human Rights

Protecting individual and property rights lies at the heart of the Gherson firm. Our lawyers have experience of conducting a broad range of cases before the UK courts and the European Court of Justice dealing with the liberty of individuals and the protection of business assets and other property rights. Our lawyers have also conducted judicial reviews, including Human Rights Act challenges concerning the decisions of regulators, disciplinary bodies and government bodies.

In particular we have advised individuals on leading cases involving political asylum, the confiscation of assets and the right to a fair trial under the European Convention on Human Rights and the Human Rights Act 1998.
