Dispute resolution

However well run your Practice is, it’s almost inevitable that you will find yourself involved in a dispute at some point. How you respond at the outset has a fundamental impact on the eventual outcome of a dispute, so we recommend you contact us without delay. The correct advice given early on could save you significant stress and costs in the long term.

We have an experienced dispute resolution team who will review your circumstances and provide a strategy paper along with some options for next steps. If you don’t have a case to fight, we will say so. It is not usually in your best interests to enter into full blown litigation and where possible, we work with all parties to reach an agreement outside of the courts.

We will fight your corner vigorously and our deep understanding of the NHS, along with our extensive network of experts (such as primary care surveyors and accountants), puts us at an advantage over our competitors.

As well as our reputation for resolving partnership disputes quickly and before they become litigious, we also have an enviable track record in the Employment Tribunal, in arbitration and at Court hearings and with NHS Resolution.

Here are some of the disputes we have recently advised on:-

Partnerships – we seek to ensure that disputes are settled in such a way as to protect patient care and minimise cost
Employment – unfair & constructive dismissal; discrimination claims by employees or arising between partners; bullying & harassment advice
Contractual – advice on commercial contracts contesting early termination or variation of your core contract through NHS Resolution
Regulatory – advising on issues with NHS England and the CQC including appealing against potentially misleading inspection reports and fighting enforcement actions
Premises – we understand the complexities of dealing with a primary care building and can advise on disputes arising between property owners and between a landlord and tenant
