Post Office Horizon Legal Representation

Brought back to public attention this month by ITV’s four-part drama ‘Mr. Bates vs. The Post Office,’ the story of how over 700 former sub-postmasters were wrongfully convicted, has prompted many to come forward and seek justice.

Despite warnings that the system was flawed, the Post Office relentlessly pursued the sub-postmasters and postmistresses with many accused individuals advised to plead guilty or face criminal convictions, and for some, prison sentences. Leading to the destruction of their reputations, loss of life savings and a permanent change in their lives.

The Fight To Justice

Though the show has given exonerated victims a platform to speak up about the injustice inflicted on them while championing their fight, there are still many people affected yet to come forward.

Joe Hamilton, a Royal Mail and Horizon victim, urges those to come forward, “I really do hope that gives others the courage to finally come forward. The drama is going to have a massive audience, and I hope that those who went through what we did, and are yet to clear their names, see that a pathway has been set for them. I can understand people who were once so badly let down by the justice system feeling they can’t face it again, but so much legal work has now been done for them.
