More about Inquests and Legal Proceedings

We provide legal advice, deliver training, host events, send out newsletters, facilitate networking with other clients and become an integral part of your team. Over the last 30+ years Forbes has acted for local authorities, housing associations and commercial clients, defending them against claims. We have experience of defending claims arising from accidents across all facets of duties and activities.

Accidents can, unfortunately, have the most serious of consequences. We are experienced in dealing with all aspects of high value, complex and fatal accidents. The consequences of such accidents can be far reaching with the potential for external investigations, inquests and both civil and criminal proceedings. We assist clients with the whole process from investigation to conclusion and have a wealth of experience dealing with both the civil and criminal aspects of these accidents. Forbes can provide a streamlined and sensitive approach to assist our clients with what are always stressful and emotional situations.

Our team regularly deals with complex and highly public article 2 inquests and related CQC and HSE prosecutions. We provide a detailed and focused investigation service, fundamental to either avoiding convictions of regulation 28 findings or identifying risk and ensuring appropriate swift and cost-effective resolution.
