Case Studies

Thank you Catherine Stock

I had an issue with the NMC which appeared to be too great to overcome. For a reasonable price which reflected my reduced circumstances Ms Catherine Stock agreed to represent me. I have no reservations in saying I have never met a person who is so adept, skilful and...

Testimonial from Nurse SC, Herts

I used Kings View Chambers for my case, which in my thinking was very very difficult. I consulted Barrister Ms Catherine Stock who was very open to me and did not promise me anything, but encouraged me to think positive, which I listened to and did.

Testimonial from Nurse HH, Yorkshire

Proper representation from the earliest stages can avoid escalation and could prevent you being struck off the nursing and midwifery register. We offer proper consideration of your case and our expert public access barristers can assist and guide you through the process from beginning to end.

Nurses and midwives have one of the most demanding jobs in the UK. Nursing is multifaceted and involves safeguarding the health and wellbeing of members of the public at all times. It is said that less than 0.2 percent of nurses and midwives have allegations made about their fitness to practice. Most of you work within your Code and consistently meet the high standards expected by the public and the NMC. But allegations do get made. If an allegation is made that you have not met the standards set by the NMC they will investigate and where necessary take action to safeguard the health and wellbeing of the public.

Proper advice in the early stages can avoid escalation of the matter and could prevent a referral to the NMC or the NMC from finding there is a case to answer

Our specialist barristers can offer advice in the early stages and help you through the process from beginning to end.

They genuinely understand the complexities of working in healthcare and can help.
