Samantha has specialist experience in advising private and NHS Consultants from leading hospitals on private and NHS whistleblowing and discrimination claims, defending disciplinary allegations under MHPS and disciplinary processes, raising grievances, and bullying, harassment and contractual claims, together with worker status claims in respect of private practice work.
Samantha also advises partners and LLPs in respect of their LLP agreements as well as partnership disputes, including advising on and negotiating partner exits and issues regarding restrictive covenants, discrimination and whistleblowing.
Samantha has successfully represented both employees and employers in relation to claims for unfair dismissal, breach of contract, restrictive covenants, bonus disputes and unlawful deduction of wages. Previous experience of acting on behalf of both parties means that she has a good insight into her opponents’ weaknesses, which she can use to her clients’ advantage.
Recent cases include:
- acting for a senior NHS consultant in her successful claims for sex discrimination, harassment and victimisation. Claims also involved arguing worker status at her private practice and pursuing this case to the Employment Appeal Tribunal;
- acting for an NHS consultant in their successful claim for constructive unfair dismissal, which involved advising on MHPS processes and GMC regulatory issues;
- conducting an internal investigation on behalf of a client into grievances raised by multiple employees. This included interviewing over 12 employees and drafting an investigation report in relation to her findings;
- successfully negotiating settlement in respect of employees within the financial and media sectors without their disability discrimination Tribunal claims proceeding to final hearings; and
- negotiating exits from NHS Trusts in respect of a senior consultant and an employee within management.
