Coroners

The main duty of a Coroner is to enquire into sudden or unexplained deaths usually by having a post-mortem examination made, followed by an inquest if the cause of death is not natural. In addition to this there are specific requirements to investigate deaths in certain circumstances, for example, the death of a person in custody, or a death resulting from a person's occupation.

 

Please note that this service is provided by Leicestershire County Council Coroner’s Department.
