Your challenges
Managing the public’s justifiably high expectations of NHS workers while the Government’s purse strings are tightening means that HR managers will face unique pressures over the next few years. We believe that having employment lawyers who understand the health sector from the inside can make a real difference.
Achieving your ambitions
With our exceptional understanding of the health sector and our substantial commercial experience we can help you deal with the human implications of organisational change and deliver your strategic objectives. Where difficulties or disputes arise, we will work in partnership with you to resolve them with minimum cost and without damage to your reputation.
The strength you need
Our team of 16 specialist health sector employment lawyers work for over 110 healthcare organisations around the UK. We provide rapid but well-considered advice which takes into account your commercial needs as well as the political context of the NHS.
We have a strong national reputation for advising on NHS restructuring, disputes with medical staff and very senior mangers as well as complex discrimination matters. You will have access to an experienced team of advocates who are able to represent your organisation from initial instructions right through to any employment tribunal hearings. NHS managers comment very favourably on the benefits of our extensive training programme.
Lawyers you can trust
Our employment team has been singled out in the Chambers UK legal directory for its strength in the public sector and Jog Hundle, the lead partner for our healthcare employment work, has been praised for her “great client care”.
Legal 500 has favourable mentions for our other two employment partners specialising in health: Stuart Craig is “greatly valued for his specialist NHS advice” and Martin Brewer is “commended by clients for his tenacity and sense of humour”.
