Human Rights

Darragh’s PhD thesis examines the interaction of the European Convention on Human Rights and national security related deportation. He has published academic articles in this area and during his time in Cambridge, Darragh taught on the ‘human rights and civil liberties’ module of the highly respected Cambridge LLM course.

In practice, much of Darragh’s immigration work has involved claims under the Human Rights Act. He maintains a particular interest in Article 3 claims and he regularly contributes to the UK Human Rights Blog.
