Has a public body treated you unfairly? Do you suspect that the decision was unlawful? Are you concerned your human rights have been violated by the decision of a public body?
If you suspect that a public body has made an unfair or unlawful decision or acted outside their powers we recommend you seek legal advice as soon as possible.
