“Browne Jacobson understood the need for us to quickly resolve the issues arising in the challenge so we could implement the new model of care to provide a better stroke service for our patients. Throughout the process they constantly kept us up to date with developments and when proceedings were issued, were clear on the response and tactics needed to resolve it. As a result, they ensured that proceedings dealt only with permission and secured an early date before the court, so the challenge was defeated within 4 months of receiving the Letter before Action.”

“We chose Browne Jacobson to assist us in creating a new governance structure for our ICS due to their understanding of our system and the excellent work they have done throughout the country in supporting ICS development. It was important for us to work with people who could offer that wider perspective. We have set them a challenging timescale but through our teams working closely together, we are confident the go-live date for the new governance system of 1 April 2019 will be achieved. In order to enable everyone to understand the system, an ICS manual is being developed with scenario testing on how decisions will be made through the system. Buy in across the system has been with the leaders across the NHS and local government, to ensure a system is developed to meet their needs.”
