Dental Solicitors in Manchester
Manchester is the dental hub of the North West, with a young, fast growing population and a city centre that has changed beyond recognition in a decade. That growth shows up in the practices, from busy NHS lists in the surrounding boroughs to new cosmetic and implant clinics opening in and around the centre. We match Manchester dentists with solicitors who know the Greater Manchester market and can move at the pace the city does.
How we help dentists in Manchester
Whether you are buying your first practice in Manchester, selling a long-held list or sorting the agreements that keep a practice running, we match you with a specialist for the job. Our headline work is the sale and purchase of dental practices, and we cover everything around it.
Buying or selling a practice
Our headline work. We guide you through the sale or purchase of a dental practice, from heads of terms to completion, without the drama.
NHS contracts
Make sense of your GDS or PDS contract, UDA targets and what happens when they change hands.
Leases
The premises your practice runs from, sorted. New leases, renewals, assignments and rent reviews.
Partnerships
Going into practice with someone, or restructuring who owns what. Clear terms, fewer fallouts.
Expense sharing arrangements
Share the costs of a building and a team while keeping your patient lists and income your own.
Deeds of association
The agreement between principals that sets out how you work together. Written so it actually holds up.
Associateship agreements
Fair, compliant terms for taking on or becoming an associate, including the bits people forget.
Employment contracts
Contracts for your nurses, receptionists and practice managers that protect the practice and stay legal.
Contracts for services with hygienists
Self employed hygienist and therapist arrangements set up the right way, so the status sticks.
The dental market in Manchester
The Greater Manchester ICB covers one of the largest and most active dental markets outside London, and practice sales here range from long established family surgeries in the suburbs to brand new private clinics chasing the city centre crowd. Freehold premises are more common than in London but plenty of city centre and high street practices are leasehold, so lease terms and any redevelopment plans nearby are worth checking. NHS commissioning sits with Greater Manchester ICB, and UDA values and contract sizes differ a good deal between the inner boroughs and the leafier south. Buyers, including corporates and growing regional groups, are active, so timescales can be brisk. A specialist will read the local picture rather than apply a one size fits all template.
