Military inquests

Specialists in military inquests

If a family member is in the armed forces, you have to face up to the reality that he/she has put themself on the front line and, if deployed, may not return. This knowledge doesn’t make any loss any easier, but at least you know they died doing something they loved.

Soldier

However, it becomes harder to bear when your loved one has died unnecessarily - in a friendly fire incident or because of inadequate equipment. The Ministry of Defence isn’t always open with the details of how people died, leaving distraught families struggling for answers.

At Hodge Jones & Allen, our renowned lawyers have considerable experience in representing families at military inquests and other inquiries. Some examples include:

  • the successful judicial review of the inquest into the death of Jason Smith, killed in Iraq;
  • the campaign, led by families of soldiers killed in Iraq and Afghanistan whilst travelling in Snatch Land Rovers;
  • the inquest into the ‘friendly fire’ death of Corporal John Johnston Cosby
