We specialise in providing practical legal assistance to general practitioners and medical partnerships of all shapes and sizes. We appreciate that a medical practice does not operate in the same way as most other commercial entities and as a result, requires a particular approach when dealing with the common legal issues that face businesses on a daily basis.
Our team has a wealth of experience in acting for medical partnerships and is able to advise on every aspect of general practice. We work closely with local accountants and other professionals to ensure that our legal solutions are tailored to meet your unique needs.
Our main areas of expertise include:
Commercial
• preparation of medical partnership agreements;
• advising on the admission and/or retirement of partners;
• resolution of partnership disputes; and
• expense-sharing agreements.
