Marc was very proactive and diligent in my case; and you immediately trust that he is working like a shark for you, and he delivers on that.

 

"Marc has been wonderful since the day I contacted him in regards to my case of unfair dismissal on the grounds of pregnancy. After explaining the scenario to him, he advised me clearly on my options both verbally and sent the terms in writing shortly.

Marc was very proactive and diligent in my case; and you immediately trust that he is working like a shark for you, and he delivers on that.

He kept in good communication and always replied to any questions I had.

The outcome for me was that my employer settled during conciliation so the whole process took 3.5 months in total and I got more that we anticipated.

During this process there was not one day of stress for me, Marc took care of all the ins and outs and I can’t thank him enough! I would recommend Marc to anyone, and if you're looking for someone to fight your corner... He is that guy!"

I don't know how he managed to go through the bundle and prepare the submissions within such short notice. On the day of hearing I couldn’t have wished to have anyone else representing me other than Marc as he was brilliant and on point.

 

"I cannot express my sincere gratitude enough to the way Marc handled my case . As an inexperienced NQSW, I didn’t know where to start when I received a letter to attend an interim hearing. I knew the help I was getting from the union wasn’t sufficient, so I turned to the internet where I stumbled across Whatrights and straight away my instincts told me he was the one. We only had two weeks before the hearing when I got in touch with him. The biggest blow was that we  received my case bundle two days before the hearing leaving us little time to prepare our submission. By this time I was panicking and all I could think of was being suspended or worse ... being struck off. Marc was very reassuring and professional. I don't know how he managed to go through the bundle and prepare the submissions within such short notice. On the day of hearing I couldn’t have wished to have anyone else representing me other than Marc as he was brilliant and on point. The results were positive as I can still practice with minimal conditions. My only regret is not seeking his help earlier. A big thank you Marc from me and my family, keep up with the good work you are doing."

I am glad I still have a chance to practice my profession and right my wrongs. Thank you very much Marc.

 

"I just want to thank Marc for taking up my case on such a short notice. I was called for an application of an interim order hearing regarding incompetency at work. Marc was able to get me off with minimal conditions to practice. I am glad I still have a chance to practice my profession and right my wrongs. Thank you very much Marc."

He was very committed and worked really hard on my case and all this hard work was showcased during my hearing. I was very happy with the outcome of my case and I do not think it would have been the same outcome if I had relied on my unison.

 

"I am very grateful for having made the decision to contact Marc. After a dismissal for gross misconduct and facing the HCPC, I contacted my Union who I thought would be of support both legally and emotionally. I was disappointed when I later found out that they would not offer any legal help or advice to me. Every time the dreadful letters came from the HCPC, I contacted my union and their response was always that unfortunately they wouldn’t advise me on how to respond. My husband said we need to find a lawyer asap. I went and searched the internet not knowing who was the best for my case. I stumbled across Marc’s profile. He stood out and I instinctively knew he would be the best man for the job! I filled in a form and with in 10 minutes, he had already called and I explained my situation to him. He said I had missed some opportunities to sort the case out earlier however he was glad I had made contact as we still had other opportunities. He was so prompt and very helpful.

Marc was very prompt and always managed to get back to me every time I needed him. He is very realistic and never gave me any false hope. he always reassured me every time I was contacted by the HCPC.

He was very committed and worked really hard on my case and all this hard work was showcased during my hearing. I was very happy with the outcome of my case and I do not think it would have been the same outcome if I had relied on my unison. Honestly I remember during the hearing when he was cross examining one of the witnesses and I wonder to myself whether my union would have even bothered to do that.

On behalf of my family, I would like to thank you Marc for your hard work and relentless effort during these very trying times. I am now back in full time employment without any restrictions!"

You kept us informed and liaised with NMC closely whilst reassuring us.

I personally would recommend you and once again thank you for all your hard work."

 

"Hi, I'm NR's wife. I'd like to say a big thank you for all your support over the last few months. You have been a great help and enabled us as a family to get through a very stressful time.

You kept us informed and liaised with NMC closely whilst reassuring us. You took away the stress of filling in forms over and over again and never complained when my husband emailed you practically every day to see what was going on.

I personally would recommend you and once again thank you for all your hard work."

Marc was well prepared despite only having just a short period of preparation time. He managed the cross examination perfectly,

 

"In Nov 2016 I was faced with an HCPC investigation relating to low level data breach and an error in my recording of a case-note. Having never been through this and financially struggling I felt I had no choice but to manage this alone and independently. I let the investigation proceed. Eventually the HCPC concluded that my case met the threshold for [a panel hearing] much to my dismay. Still believing I had no choice I began building my defence case with everyone around me telling me to get a solicitor. Eventually 9 days before the hearing I found and appointed Marc Walker, however at this point i had not guaranteed the funds to pay Marc. However he was patient and flexible and agreed pre-hearing fee to begin the preparation of the case. I was eventually able to pay the final fee just days before the case hearing. Marc was flexible in his working hours, working the weekend before the case at short notice and being very patient with all my anxieties and questions, and he presented as very supportive throughout. On the day of the hearing Marc was well prepared despite only having just a short period of preparation time. He managed the cross examination perfectly, addressing all [salient] aspects and gave an amazing closing submission. His due diligence was outstanding and he delivered, with a verdict of not guilty. I was able to continue my practice of social work thanks to Marc. I will be forever in his debt, Marc not only saved my career but also my way of life, passion and future. Words of thanks will never be enough. Thank you Marc.

He understands how the NMC works and completely understands the despair you are feeling. He put my case into context and outlined what work he would need to do, including his charges (he only charges for the actual work he does and it's in-line with solicitor fees).

 

"In May '17 a set of circumstances arose culminating with me facing a criminal charge and a referral to the NMC's Fitness to practice dept.

When this notification arrived from the NMC outlining the process i was about to face, I knew I needed help so started looking on the internet trying to find the right person.
I came across Marc Walker at whatrights.co.uk, read some of the testimonials and decided to make contact with him - it was the best decision i could have made.
Marc contacted me quickly and i explained the situation i was in, he understands how the NMC works and completely understands the despair you are feeling. He put my case into context and outlined what work he would need to do, including his charges (he only charges for the actual work he does and it's in-line with solicitor fees).
As i was facing a criminal charge, Marc introduced me to a colleague who was to deal with that part of it. My case soon escalated from Magistrates to Crown court and again he arranged for Counsel to defend me. Luckily, my case was stopped before it even got to trial so that part was over but i still had to face the FtP investigation by the NMC.
Marc dealt with all relevant paper work including responses and eventually the NMC declared 'No case to answer' - case closed, it was all over.
Throughout this process, Marc has always been at the end of the phone, answered the many emails i sent him with my concerns in a timely manner, and most importantly he explained all the NMC processes as they arose in plain english.
He knows and realizes how your situation is affecting your life so provides reassurance and professional advice when it is most needed. I can't recommend Marc enough, if you are facing similar circumstances then please consider using him, if like me you will not be disappointed.
Thanks Marc, I can't tell you how grateful I am for all your help, it was a pleasure dealing with you (shame about the circumstances!)"

From the minute I made contact with Marc, I felt a sense of relief as he was very reassuring

 

"From the minute I made contact with Marc, I felt a sense of relief as he was very reassuring. He kept me up to date with the progress of my [NMC] case.  I had soo many questions, some of them silly but he answered them all patiently.  He even took calls at the weekend, which was amazing because once I was a bundle of nerves and could not wait until the Monday. He is an expert in his field and I would recommend him to anyone.  He is worth every penny he charges.

Again thank you very much Marc for the assistance. May God bless you and your family always."
