Ridouts is a law firm that only acts for care providers. We provide legal, operational and strategic advice to providers when they are faced with matters that could negatively impact their businesses, such as poor Ofsted inspections, enforcement action, such as Notices of Proposal to suspend or cancel registration and Restriction of Accommodation notices, safeguarding, inquests and Serious Case Reviews.
At Ridouts, we know the health and social care sector and the details that can make the difference to your business. We help our clients to find defences and positive outcomes to, often, commercially damaging situations. We work with you to manage and reduce risks presented to your business.

Stephensons has a team of specialist regulatory lawyers who provide advice and representation to Ofsted registered social care providers in relation to compliance, challenging inspections and enforcement action. We are experienced in representing providers in appeals to the First-tier Tribunal (Health, Education and Social Care Chamber) against cancellation notices, suspension notices and notices restricting accommodation. We also represent social care providers in respect of proposals to refuse registration and any subsequent appeals.
Our specialist Ofsted lawyers understand the intense pressure on providers to comply with the vast and complex regulations governing regulated settings, whilst ensuring that children are suitably protected and safeguarded. We appreciate how a negative inspection report, or any potential enforcement action, can affect your business significantly, and, in many cases, unfairly so.
It is important to protect your business and reputation with legal advice from a specialist before you take any action. Defending you and your business is our primary concern.
