We act for providers of health and social care services across England and Wales, not regulators, commissioners or service users. In so doing, we avoid conflicts of interest and can be truly independent in the advice we give to our clients.
The range of services we cover, across both the private and public sectors, include:
We advise providers on all aspects of regulation conducted by the Care Quality Commission, Ofsted and the Care Inspectorate Wales including challenging inspection reports and defending providers faced with civil or criminal enforcement action. Our partner, Neil Grant, has a national reputation in the sector, having acted for the national inspectorates, as well as major care providers.
Other areas that we advise providers on include:
Our approach is conciliatory, not adversarial, aimed at overcoming problems in the interests of service users. At the same time, we are assertive in defending our client’s rights if the situation demands it.
Please contact Neil Grant , Lucy Bowker or Samantha Burges for further details.
“I want to personally thank you and your team for the support in overcoming the regulatory challenges we were facing. The service and professionalism you offered my business was of the highest standard and greatly appreciated. Thank you so much for your outstanding work.”
Florence Kizza of Winsor Care Services Limited
“We have worked with Neil Grant for many years now on a wide range of regulatory and contractual issues involving our two care homes. We have always found Neil to be thoroughly professional, responsive, supportive, and highly knowledgeable and experienced in his field. Just as importantly Neil is also extremely amiable and easy to work with. I would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Neil Grant for any legal work related to regulatory or care contract related matters.”
