With a track record spanning over 25 years, our specialist pharmacy solicitors have the expertise to support clients through every stage in the life cycle of a pharmacy business. We are uniquely placed to advise on the broad range of issues affecting pharmacies today – from complex transactional requirements to regulatory matters.
Our dedicated, multi-disciplinary team, made up of lawyers from our corporate, commercial, real estate, employment, immigration and clinical negligence practices, provides legal advice to pharmacies of all sizes. At Penningtons Manches Cooper, we have the flexibility and breadth of understanding to advise major pharmacy chains through to independent operators with one pharmacy as well as individual practitioners.
Whether you are looking to purchase a pharmacy or your business is threatened by the possible opening of a new contract, we will be able to tailor our services to your specific needs. If you are involved with judicial review proceedings or fitness to practise issues, our long history of acting on regulatory matters in the sector will mean that we can offer pragmatic assistance and representation.
Our lawyers have advised on the acquisition and disposal of hundreds of pharmacies, often to very tight timescales. We know and understand the pressures of operating in a world of constantly evolving legislation and provide clear, commercial guidance relevant to the sector. In addition, our specialists have established strong relationships with banks, accountants and agents with significant experience of working with pharmacies who can deliver the necessary complementary support.
In-house training for clients – both on commercial and regulatory issues - is an integral part of the services offered by our team of pharmacy lawyers.
