Tribunals of Inquiry

Holmes provide expert advice on fair procedures and are skilled advocating within various tribunal proceedings.

We work with our public sector clients to build an investigation framework with supporting processes for the conduct of such investigations, including the issuing of any findings on conclusion, to ensure that due process is afforded, and fair procedures maintained. This expert advice mitigates the risk of challenge by way of judicial review.

Acting for corporate clients the subject of investigation, we provide robust representation, bolstered with our indepth understanding of such investigations. Where the rights and entitlements of our clients need to be vindicated, it often proves necessary to enlist the assistance of the courts. We advise on the merits and risks of such actions, and provide strong representation where proceedings are initiated.
