Professional Misconduct
A conviction for a criminal offence, or in some circumstances even being charged with a criminal offence, can often have an impact on a client’s registration with a professional regulator body or employer.
In addition, decisions often need to be made in relation to an employment investigation which can affect your criminal charges. You should therefore obtain advice before participating in an interview with an employer or regulatory body which might be later used in the criminal process.
We have significant experience representing clients in a range of professional disciplinary tribunals, including the Health Practitioners Tribunal, Legal Services Commission, Church Professional Standards Board etc.
We can also provide you with assistance in applications for Blue Cards and/or an appeal against a refusal to issue a Blue Card.
We cover a wide range of disciplinary areas so if you are unsure whether legal representation can assist you, contact one of our solicitors for advice.
