Pharmacy and Healthcare Regulation

We have extensive experience in advising clients on fitness to practise issues and disciplinary proceedings brought by their professional bodies.

We have worked with the National Pharmaceutical Association for many years. We advise pharmacists practising as employees, locums, sole proprietors or in partnership or as superintendents of limited companies, including major chains, on all manner of regulatory, disciplinary and fraud matters arising from investigations by the Royal Pharmaceutical Society, the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), the Police, Crown Prosecution Service and at Coroners' Inquests.

We advise on investigations by the Society and its Inspectors, attend interviews under caution with clients and prepare written submissions to the Investigating Committee. Where a matter proceeds to the Disciplinary  or Health Committee, we deal with case preparation and provide representation at inquiries.

Our lawyers are experienced advocates and conduct many of the hearings themselves. Where necessary, we have established relationships with specialist Counsel to provide professional and high quality representation.

We also provide individual pharmacists (employed or locums), pharmacist managers, owners and companies with advice on associated pharmacy matters such as:
