At KBW, police misconduct cases form a core pillar of Simon Mallett‘s practice, and Ian Mullarkey is highly regarded for his expertise in acting for police forces and officers in inquests concerning deaths in custody, as well as a range of misconduct claims involving allegations of assault and false imprisonment. Olivia Checa-Dover is well known as a police law specialist, and recently appeared in a case where a Northumbria Police officer was dismissed on the grounds of gross misconduct; the officer was convicted of sexually assaulting a vulnerable woman he met during the course of a criminal investigation.
