Urgent Complaints to the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR)

In certain situations, the urgency of a case requires immediate action. The European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) has a special provision known as Rule 39, which allows individuals to request urgent interim measures. These measures can be crucial in cases where human rights are at imminent risk, such as the threat of death, torture, or deportation. If you find yourself in a situation requiring urgent intervention, we provide expert assistance in submitting emergency complaints to the ECHR to protect your rights.

What We Offer in Our Urgent Complaints Service

Urgent Applications for Interim Measures (Rule 39)

Risks of Self-Submission:

• Lack of Understanding of Rule 39: Rule 39 is a specific provision that requires applicants to demonstrate that immediate action is necessary to prevent irreparable harm. Without understanding how to present the urgency and risk, applicants may not convince the Court to intervene.
• Failure to Properly Substantiate the Urgency: To secure urgent measures, the Court must be convinced that there is a real, imminent risk to the applicant’s life or well-being. A poorly substantiated application can result in the rejection of interim measures.
• Incorrect or Incomplete Documentation: Applications for urgent measures must be supported by specific documents and evidence. Missing or incorrect documentation can lead to a delay or rejection of the request, potentially putting your rights at risk.

How We Help:

• Fast-Track Applications: We prepare and submit Rule 39 applications quickly, ensuring that all necessary documentation and arguments are included to demonstrate the urgency and necessity of interim measures.
• Effective Legal Justification: Our legal team will ensure that the Court is provided with all the evidence needed to substantiate the request for urgent measures. We make a strong case that immediate intervention is required to protect your rights.
• Timely Action: We prioritize urgency, making sure your application is filed as soon as possible to ensure the Court’s intervention before any irreversible harm occurs.

Threat to Life and Risk of Deportation

Risks of Self-Submission:

• Inability to Demonstrate Immediate Threat: If you are facing threats to your life, such as torture or an imminent risk of execution, or if you are at risk of deportation to a country where your life or freedom would be in danger, it’s crucial to present a strong, credible case. Without proper legal guidance, it may be difficult to demonstrate the immediate threat convincingly.
• Failure to Provide Sufficient Evidence: In cases of deportation, applicants must provide evidence that they will face real harm if returned to their home country. Insufficient or unconvincing evidence can prevent the Court from granting urgent interim measures, leaving you exposed to harm.
• Incorrect Legal Arguments: Properly framing the threat to life or deportation risk within the context of the European Convention on Human Rights is essential. Misunderstanding the relevant provisions could weaken your case or lead to delays.
