Why is specialist legal advice recommended?

Given the sanctions available to regulators these cases often involve high stakes and the implications to a professional’s livelihood and reputation can be extremely serious. A specialist lawyer can draw on their experience to guide you through a complicated regulatory process. Stephensons have extensive experience of professional regulation. We'll provide pragmatic and sensible advice. We'll advise our clients where we think allegations should be admitted and our focus should be on mitigation, remediation and insight. We'll also advise our clients where we think a case should sensibly be defended and we'll advise them how best to go about mounting an effective and successful defence.

This area of law involves cases which are often highly emotionally charged. We recognise that to be under scrutiny by your regulator or professional body can be very stressful and daunting. A specialist lawyer provides a much-needed barrier between the professional and their regulator and can help absorb some of that pressure and stress. If you find yourself the subject of a professional disciplinary investigation, we have a team of dedicated lawyers ready to fight your corner.
