HSE prosecutions
Health and Safety legislation is becoming more and more virulent. The Health and Safety Executive are increasing obtaining more and more powers and utilizing the legislation at their disposal to prosecute more and more people, sometimes for the most trivial offences.
We will take full instructions in relation to any advanced information provided by the Health and Safety Executive where a prosecution has taken place. Prior to that, if necessary, we will attend at an interview under caution with an individual or company director where the individual or company are interviewed in relation to any possible breach of Health and Safety laws.
We advocate matters on behalf of individuals and companies, either in the Magistrates Court by way of trial, appeals against sentence and/or conviction and enter guilty pleas and offer mitigation where guilt is admitted.
