Extradition
Interpol Red Notice Lawyers in London
It is not uncommon for individuals often those who have never been convicted of a criminal offence to discover they are being stopped or questioned at international borders. This typically occurs when an overseas law enforcement agency informs Interpol that a person is “wanted”, even if the request is politically motivated, outdated, or legally flawed.
Challenging Interpol Red Notices
Our team provides clear, strategic advice and prepares written submissions to the Commission for the Control of Interpol’s Files (CCF).
A Red Notice can have serious personal and professional consequences — restricting travel, damaging reputation, and impacting employment or immigration status. Our Interpol Red Notice solicitors work quickly and discreetly to have these records reviewed, challenged, and removed wherever possible.

Extradition
If you are facing an extradition request, you need experienced lawyers who understand both the law and the pressure you’re under. Our expert extradition solicitors in London provide practical advice, clear guidance, and powerful defence against requests from European and worldwide jurisdictions.
If you are facing an extradition request whether you have been accused of an offence abroad or convicted in another jurisdiction it is crucial to seek immediate advice from specialist extradition solicitors.
At Lartey & Co we represent clients in all forms of extradition proceedings, from European Arrest Warrants (EAW) to non-EU extradition requests under the Extradition Act 2003. Our experienced team provides strategic advice and robust representation in both the Magistrates’ Court and the High Court, ensuring every possible argument in your defence is explored.
We have developed particular expertise in extradition requests from European countries and jurisdictions outside the EU, including the United States, Albania, Poland, Germany, and the Czech Republic.
In 2018, Jason Lartey, one of our firm’s senior solicitors, acted as the supervising solicitor in the landmark case of Lauri Love v United States of America.
This was the first time the Forum Bar to extradition was successfully argued at the High Court, marking a historic moment in UK extradition law. The case was also one of the few occasions where the High Court discharged a requested person facing extradition to the USA, emphasising the willingness of the English courts to protect individuals from oppressive or disproportionate extradition requests.
This decision set a significant legal precedent and remains one of the most influential extradition rulings of recent years.
