Mr. Bates v. The Post Office

James Hartley of Freeths - the lawyer who credited litigation funders in the sub-postmasters case for helping to “expose the biggest miscarriage of justice in British legal history” - has been depicted by actor John Hollingworth in a four-part 2024 ITV drama ‘Mr. Bates v The Post Office’ which aired in January, followed by a documentary on the case for which James was interviewed.
