They may gather evidence, advise on campaigns or statutory protections, and prepare or respond to formal complaints and appeals.

They navigate statutory frameworks, safeguarding and safeguarding investigations, and potentially tribunal processes for education disputes, ensuring adherence to procedural deadlines and evidentiary requirements.

Lily Nutbrown

Tagged solicitor Lily Nutbrown

We had the pleasure of working with Richard Etherington and Lilly nutbrown to fight a false accusation by a university. We interviewed several legal firms before deciding to use Richard Nelson LLP. And we are glad we did. Richard and Lilly were extremely thorough in their investigation, super efficient, professional, whilst explaining any potential or likely outcomes, the reasoning and laws. We felt completely at ease and we are so glad to have hired them - it took so much stress away and we knew it was all being taken care of. Both were quick to respond to communications and are clearly dedicated to the work they do. Would happily work with the organisation again, i was incredibly impressed. Thankyou so much for everything!

Janata Ali is an expert in n her field which resulted in us winning our case against the local authority to issue an EHCP for our son. Our son will hopefully now thrive and we will be forever grateful for her help and support with our case.

Put simply, we couldn't have done it without Alex. She kept proceedings on track and applied consistent pressure to the Local Authority, consulting us at each step and giving a considered view of our best approach. She shared great knowledge of schools we could consider and worked seamlessly with our expert witnesses to build a firm case. And ultimately, brought us to a brilliant resolution for our son with a place at the school we identified as best placed to meet his needs.
