"I had a legal dispute with my practice which Julie helped me resolve amicably avoiding an Employment Tribunal.
​She was supportive, extremely knowledgeable and an excellent negotiator. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her."

"In March 2020 we lost our PDS Orthodontic contract following the egregious tender process and subsequently experienced ongoing issues and disputes with NHS managers regarding enforced COVID 19 closures, un-announced DDRB uplift claw-back, drawdown contractual issues and the agreement of patient numbers within the contract.  Very quickly NHS managers engaged the services of the legal profession to argue for them.  In response we approached Julie Norris from Lawyers for Doctors to act on our behalf.  The professionalism, attention to detail, help and support from Julie and Rosie Hobbs was outstanding and we would have been lost without them.  They further went on to help us present evidence to PCAS which eventually found in our favour. We were helped every step of the way by Julie and Rosie who went over and above what was expected and we can’t thank them enough for the skill and expertise they brought to the case."

"When I realised I had been significantly underpaid by my NHS trust I tried to contact them through their Payroll and HR departments respectively. After being delayed and ultimately ignored I turned to Lawyers for Doctors for help. After initially contacting Lawyers for Doctors they responded promptly and quickly built a comprehensive plan of action taking all relevant considerations into account. Lawyers for Doctors guided me through a long and arduous process of my employment dispute with expert knowledge and careful execution, they were available to advise, discuss, and respond at short notice in the most professional and effective manner. Julie has extreme depth and breadth of knowledge of both UK employment laws and NHS employment terms and conditions, in addition to this the counsel offered with communication with the other party was invaluable . It was clear that Julie and the team had vast amounts of experience navigating legal disputes of employees with the NHS. Lawyers for Doctors were ultimately able to secure a significant remuneration of withheld payment for me and other colleagues in a similar situation. Throughout the distressing period Lawyers for Doctors demonstrated nothing but the highest level of competence and professionalism and I would recommend them to any doctor or dentist in dispute with their employer, in need of any employment law advice, or concerns with their NHS contract .From sage advice in the very first meeting, through prompt and informative communication for the length of our work together, ending with a fair and  just conclusion Lawyers for Doctors made nothing but positive contributions  to all the issues I needed help with. I am confident that Lawyers for Doctors and the help they offered improved the outcome of my dispute immeasurably and would happily recommend them to any colleague in need - something I have already done and will continue to do."

"As a hospital consultant, I have worked with a great team of dental nurses for many years - with a very low turnover of staff. 
When agenda for change came in my nurse had their status and consequently their pay was downgraded- despite them carrying out the same high level of skilled work. They worked with their union to no avail. I tried to help, them putting a case together, comparing their roles with other equivalent hospital staff. Again, they had no success. 
I then contacted Lawyers for Doctors to see if they could help. They took time to assess the situation and then put a plan into action advising the nurses without excluding the union through whom the nurses had to approach the hospital. The hospital reviewed the situation and we have achieved not just restitution of their previous grade but also creation of higher level senior nurse so there is now a career progression available to them. 
Without Lawyers for Doctors we did not  achieve anything!"

"​I am currently a junior doctor but first met Julie Norris of Lawyers for Doctors back in medical school when I was still a student. I had undergone a couple of turbulent years throughout my studies which had caused a number of problems bringing my progression into question. I was connected with Julie when facing termination of my degree.

She was immediately invested in my case and able to offer plenty of well considered insights into the situation. Years of experience of working with Drs and students has provided her with deep knowledge and understanding of common reasons behind them struggling. Julie was able to offer practical advice about a likely medical explanation for my difficulties which more than two years of pastoral support from qualified Drs at my medical school failed to provide. She helped me access support that not only allowed me to continue to graduate but has brought about monumental improvements for me in every aspect of my life. She was on-hand to listen to updates and concerns about all developments in my case, supported me in person when needed, and has also kept in touch for years afterwards to ensure that things continue to be going well.

I am immensely grateful to have been the beneficiary of Julie's sage advice and clear guidance at a crucially early stage in my career and know that without her professional input I would not have been able reach the position I am now in."
