GP Partnership Agreement Solicitor

How Can Oliver Help You?

Oliver is a commercial and partnerships specialist who spends almost all his time advising GP practices. He can help with all aspects of the partnership relationship, from putting in place your GP partnership deed, to advising you on its terms, to dealing with disputes between partners.

With Primary Care Networks (PCNs) being high on the agenda for many GP practices, Oliver can help you consider your options, from supporting you with the initial set-up and structure through to models and drafting up your agreements.

He also advises on joint venture arrangements between practices, federations, co-operatives, clusters and has dealt with over 100 mergers of GP practices, and has done a lot of work on the "decentralised" or super partnership model of GP mergers. Oliver can also advise on the terms of NHS contracts. 

Oliver has been acting for GPs practices for over 12 years and has been involved in drawing up or amending over 250 GP partnership deeds.

Meeting Your Needs

Like all of the VWV Primary Healthcare team, Oliver keeps up to date with the GP profession and is an avid reader of GP trade mags such as Pulse and GP News. Oliver keeps abreast of developments in the sector and writes and lectures frequently on legal issues affecting doctors and dentists.
