People come to the law when they’re at their most vulnerable—arrested, grieving, confused, or afraid. The last thing they need is to be hit with legal jargon, complicated processes, and professionals who speak at them, not to them.
Make an Enquiry From Victim to Voice - From Grief to Justice
I’m Gail Hadfield Grainger, the founder of GHG Legal Consultant and an Accredited Police Station Representative
But before I ever studied law or stepped into a police station to defend someone else, I sat on the other side — as a woman, a mother, a partner bereaved by police violence.In 2012, my partner, Anthony Grainger, was shot dead by Greater Manchester Police while sitting in a car.
He was unarmed.
I had to fight for the truth.
It was life-changing.
The police were to blame
That moment didn’t just take someone I loved — It almost destroyed me, but at the same time it lit a fire in me to fight back. Since then, I’ve dedicated my life to standing up for those seriously failed by the system, especially at the point where the damage begins: the police station.
The law can feel cold and complex. But I make it human. I’ve been on the other side of the table. I know what it’s like to feel scared, unheard, or powerless. That’s why everything I offer is built around compassion, clarity, and standing up for you when it matters most.
