We have extensive healthcare experience which provides the firm with a unique perspective and insight into the legal and commercial concerns of pharmacy businesses.
We can provide your pharmacy with a full range of legal solutions, from buying and selling your business to employment advice, so there’s no need to hunt around for services or rely on non-specialists to learn the basics before offering advice.

How can Capsticks help?

  • Commercial and contracts

    Buying or selling a pharmacy is different from buying and selling any other business. You will need to navigate a complex regulatory framework whilst ensuring the proper transfer of the NHS Contract and compliance with the regulatory requirements of owning a pharmacy. Whether you are looking to undertake a share sale/purchase or asset sale/purchase, we will combine our expertise in healthcare legislation with our extensive commercial knowledge and understanding of regulatory compliance issues to guide you throughout the entire process.
