Healthcare

We provide legal advice to healthcare professionals including doctors, dentists, opticians, pharmacists and care home operators.

We regularly advise on a range commercial matters including:

• Partnership arrangements
• Employment law 
• Managing change in your practice
• Terms and conditions
• Joint ventures
• Property matters (including those within PFI and PPP Schemes)
• Pharmacy operations
• Corporate Governance
• How to minimise legal risk

We are often called upon to assist in the re-arrangement of partnership structures, joint ventures between pharmacy operators and GPs.

Our property team advises on matters including the disposal of surplus premises and the acquisition and development of new primary health care facilities.

We have acted on a number of NHS LIFT Schemes for the public sector, private sector LIFTCOs and more recently, GPs throughout the country. 

We have an excellent understanding of primary health care development within the context of PFI or PPP Scheme.

Financial institutions instruct us in relation to lending on the development of new primary health care facilities.

We can advise on a regulatory structure surrounding primary care clinic or commissioning.  

One of our partners sits as non-executive director on a clinical commissioning group which gives us an insight into the corporate governance framework of the modern primary health care regime.
