Capsticks has an outstanding reputation for advising healthcare bodies on public law issues, including consultation requirements, public inquiries, defending judicial reviews, and compliance with the wealth of statutory materials that govern their activities. As the NHS, private and voluntary sectors work together to meet the UK’s modern healthcare needs, organisations never before bound by public law duties may find themselves subject to new rules, regulations and inspections. Capsticks can help you avoid the pitfalls strewn throughout the healthcare system, through our in-depth knowledge of the legislation and guidance, as well as a thorough understanding of the workings of healthcare bodies from all sectors. Whether you need advice on holding an Inquiry, defending a judicial review (or even preventing a challenge in the first place), or guidance on new legislation like the Freedom of Information Act, Capsticks’ team of experts can help you navigate a safe path through the system. Public Law and Judicial Review partners We regularly advise on healthcare reconfigurations and have acted in several high profile judicial review cases involving the closure of hospitals, departments and the relocation of services. Our booklet, 'Service Reconfiguration, Consultation and Judicial Review', is now in its third edition and draws on our experience in this field.
