Prison Law
Sometimes a prison sentence is unavoidable. At Clarkes we are committed to preserving the rights and dignity of those serving a custodial sentence or being held on remand.
Prisoners can be confronted by a bewildering array of rules and regulations and problems arising from a term of imprisonment may seem insurmountable in the prison environment.
Clarkes therefore offer advice and representation in all aspects of prison law including:
- Sentence calculation
- Categorisation
- Parole board applications and hearings
- Transfer applications
- Home detention curfew (Tagging)
- Adjudications
- Mandatory drug testing
- Licence recall
- Lifer issues
- Judicial review
We will always arrange a prison visit to discuss the matter with you in person and in most cases legal aid is available.
For expert legal help and advice with Prison Law call Fiona Peake from our Criminal Law team on 01952 618787.
