The Jonathan Lea Network (JLN) recently advised a client on the successful acquisition of a long-established clinical practice in London’s prestigious Harley Street. The challenge? Complex asset purchase involving staged consideration. Urgent property negotiations, with the existing lease expiring. Risk of an unresolved intellectual property dispute around the business name and domain. How we helped: Negotiated a new 5-year lease in central London, including a structured guarantee to satisfy the landlord while protecting our client as a new tenant. Secured a tailored indemnity to cap exposure to a legacy IP dispute at £10,000, with strong warranties and non-compete protections, overall trying to help the client balance their pragmatic approach to negotiations with understanding of how risks could impact their business plans. Streamlined completion, (by swiftly dealing with points raised regarding funding through a connected guarantor company).
