Praised for its ‘diverse knowledge base’, Capsticks LLP routinely acts for major private healthcare providers and NHS bodies on development programmes and government investment initiatives. On the contentious side, the team is well versed in employment tribunal claims and PFI termination disputes, with the Birmingham-based lead Henry Matveieff being highly experienced in public and privately funded capital projects. Also in Birmingham, Amy Holden is a healthcare law specialist, and Jonathan Lewis is highly knowledgeable in discrimination and whistleblowing litigation. Both Bhurhan Uddin and Vicky O’Sullivan are also recommended for their acquisition and grant funding knowledge.
