the lawyer & the nurse
Adam Cresswell - The Lawyer He / Him Before The Lawyer and The Nurse met, Adam
was studying law after graduating from the University of Liverpool at the
College of Law of England and Wales’s Birmingham campus - then following up with
the Bar Vocational Course at the same institution in London. Adam then went to
work for the Crown (CPS) in Worcester before returning to civil law within a
family firm in Corby, where he was employed as Head of Civil Litigation, and
later became a Director and shareholder in the firm. He remained at the firm for
over a decade before leaving to establish The Lawyer & the Nurse. Adam has
always had a lot to say! His strengths lie in his knowledge of health and social
care law and regulations, which is underpinned by his strong advocacy skills.
The part of his work that he most enjoys is assisting families with applications
before NHS England’s Independent Review Panels, or indeed any tribunal setting
where there is an argument to be made out for what is right as opposed to what
the Government wants to pay. Never try to call Adam on a Sunday morning as he
religiously listens to The Archers omnibus - and despite Ambridge being a
fictional village, he insists that he will retire there some day. Adam will also
say that he likes to collect antiques, though his children (18 and 21) regard
these the same way they do him - 'dusty and tacky'.
