Update on Baker Small Twitter storm

15th June 16

Dear HPCI network member, buy cialis

Following on from our email of yesterday Herts County Council have made the following press release concerning their relationship with legal firm Baker Small.  We welcome the decision made by Herts County Council and this means that, cialis generic so far, 8 local authorities have taken a similar decision.
Herts County Council have also taken the very positive step of inviting HPCI to meet with them to discuss the wider issues that our letter raised.   We look forward to meeting with them and having a fruitful discussion and how we can work together more effectively to improve services, provision and family experience.
Further information – HPCI released a press statement at the request of the Comet newspaper and our Chair Leise Cooper was interviewed today for BOB FM radio.   HPCI is also quoted in the Guardian newspaper

HCC Press Release
We were very disappointed to read the totally unacceptable and insensitive comments made by Baker Small Solicitors on social media and are taking this matter very seriously. Baker Small will no longer be representing us on new cases. We will be terminating our association with them at the earliest possible opportunity without causing disruption to ongoing tribunal cases and unnecessary delays to families, or putting the council at risk of legal challenge.
