Inquest Law magazine
 

Published three times a year, Inquest Law is a vital resource for anyone working on the investigation of sudden deaths. Inquest Law is distributed widely amongst lawyers, coroners, academics and policy makers. Written by INQUEST Lawyers Group members and invited contributors it informs practitioners about recent legal developments relating to the inquest system and the investigation of sudden deaths.The magazine also keeps practitioners informed of policy developments in related areas.

 
Inquest Law has been relaunched with a new look and layout. As of the last two issues, Inquest Law has expanded and is now produced in a higher-quality format with wider distribution. We welcome letters and other contributions on issues of importance to our readership.
Issue 14 (June 2008) features an interview with HM Chief Inspector of Prisons, Anne Owers, an extract from INQUEST's publication Dying on the Inside, plus news, reviews and extensive casenotes.
INQUEST is the only non-governmental organisation in England and Wales working specifically on contentious deaths and the inquest system and as such Inquest Law is a uniquely valuable publication.
Subscriptions are available at £50 per annum (or three issues) and can be made online. Subscriptions are included as part of membership of the INQUEST Lawyers Group.
