About Us

Healthy You Ltd is a leading provider of psychological services and expert witness reports in complex medico-legal cases. We specialise in work related to clinical negligence, trauma, and serious injury. Our multidisciplinary team supports clients and legal professionals with expert assessments that are robust, trauma-informed, and delivered with clarity.

As demand grows, we’re expanding our network of Expert Witness Associates and are particularly interested in those with experience in the following areas:

Key Areas of Expertise We're Recruiting For

· Birth Trauma – including maternal mental health and psychological injury

· Family Law – including capacity assessments and family court proceedings

· General Trauma – including PTSD, complex trauma, and developmental trauma

· Neuropsychology – including acquired brain injury and cognitive functioning

· Data Breach – including psychological impact of data misuse or loss

· Immigration – including psychological assessments for asylum or leave to remain

What Does the Expert Witness Role Involve? As an experienced expert witness in psychology, you’ll already understand the importance of providing clear, impartial, and clinically grounded opinions to assist the court. At Healthy You Ltd, our work spans a wide range of specialisms — from clinical and counselling psychology to neuropsychology and trauma-informed practice. We’re particularly looking for clinicians with expertise in areas such as birth trauma, family law, brain injury, immigration, and data breach claims. You’ll be joining a team that values robust methodology, collaborative working, and high-quality reporting. We support our experts with operational efficiency and clinical oversight, enabling you to focus on what you do best — delivering expert opinion that stands up in court.

You will work independently as a registered clinician, providing expert witness reports for legal proceedings. The work is flexible and can be tailored around your clinical commitments. Support is provided by our experienced operational and clinical leads, and you’ll be part of a collaborative, values-driven team.

What We’re Looking For

· At least 5 years post-registration experience

· Demonstrated expertise in at least one of the above specialisms

· Prior experience in medico-legal report writing (or a willingness to train)

· Strong analytical and report writing skills

· Ability to work independently and meet deadlines

What We Offer

· Competitive freelance day rates

· Flexible, remote working

· Training and supervision (if needed)

· Clinical and administrative support

· Opportunities to expand your medico-legal practice

· Work aligned with your interests and availability
