A Parole Review can be a daunting process. For IPP and Lifers, the Parole Review process is very specific and may be complex. Our team of Prison Law Solicitors can help you through the process and ensure a fair application and review.
IPP (imprisonment for public protection) sentences are indeterminate sentences. They were typically given for those who have committed a serious or violent crime when their offence didn’t merit a life sentence.
Lifers, however, are people who were given life sentences. They will either receive a minimum term (or tariff) which dictates the least amount of time they must spend in prison or will have no minimum term and have no possibility of release.
Although IPP sentences are not technically for life, those serving may spend longer in prison than a standard sentence. Both IPPs and Lifers must undergo Parole Reviews before they can be released.
At Reeds, our solicitors represent those with these sentences when they are appearing before the Parole Board for either a Paper Review or at an Oral Hearing for a review of their detention to be considered.
