The professional discipline team at
New Park Court Chambers has established strength in appearing before the GMC, the GDC and the NMC. The ‘persuasive’ Jason Pitter KC is very well-known for acting in police misconduct cases. Adam Birkby’s practice includes acting on behalf of the GMC in restoration, fitness to practise and review hearings before the MPTS, as well as representing police officers in misconduct proceedings; in a recent matter, he successfully defended a police officer against allegations of gross misconduct arising from use of force when arresting a child at a school for pupils with behavioural problems.
Jade Bucklow has expertise in representing Social Work England in fitness to practise proceedings.
