Legal advice for care sales and acquisitions
From acting for large national and regional names to new entrants and single site operators.
Get an adaptive and proactive legal strategy started
We have experience of deals of all sizes and adapt our approach and advice accordingly. We are one of few firms to have repeat experience of working on REIT deals.
Our sector knowledge is second to none. We know exactly what the potential pitfalls are in a care transaction and how to protect our clients from them, ensuring that the deal runs smoothly, cost effectively and to time.
We know and work with many of the specialist sector professionals including agents, accountants, lawyers and banks. We make sure that communication on a transaction is good from the outset and wherever possible we pick up the phone to resolve issues.
Our in-house expertise in CQC registration and compliance is an added benefit. Our team is at hand to advise should there be questions or issues around CQC during the transaction.
