Prisoners denied justice in prisons

Prisoners denied justice in prisons

At a time when the Minister of Justice, Jack Straw, is cutting back on free legal advice for prisoners who wish to challenge inhumane conditions within our prisons...

Families bereaved by murder and manslaughter are to benefit from free legal advice and extra practical support via a new dedicated victims’ helpline, launched by the Ministry of Justice today.

The free telephone helpline is to be staffed by legal advisers who will provide legal advice to victims on everything from guardianship issues and settling an estate to accessing benefits.
