The Member Legal Services department is responsible for processing all the Criminal, Misconduct and Civil applications, which also include Ill Health and Pension matters, that comply with PFEW funding criteria.


When would a claim be funded?


compensation recovered for its members from 01/01/2021 – 30/06/2024


The process of funding is measured against the Federation Fund Rules, which include the funding Criteria.


legal costs recovered through successful legal action 01/01/21 – 30/06/24


One of the key areas that tends to get misunderstood about Federation funding for conduct matters is the ‘on duty element’.


The question regarding funding is:


of any compensation awarded is kept by our members when submitting a Personal Injury application (for you and/or family member)


•Was the alleged Gross Misconduct committed in or founded upon something done in the performance or purported performance of their duties as a member of a police force.


typical legal fees associated with representation for a 5-day gross misconduct hearing (this excludes investigative fees which may be in the region of £3K)


•It should be emphasised that it is not a matter of whether the member was merely on duty at the time of the alleged Gross Misconduct but the fact that it arose out of their performance or purported performance of police duty.


*average of live claims during reporting period, accounting for natural peaks and troughs as new claims are submitted and existing claims are closed.
