“I cannot thank Brabners and Nicola Lomas enough for their support and guidance, and the urgency with which they acted to help us get the transaction completed within the planned and agreed timescale. From the first call to the frantic calls on the last day, they were focused, calm and ready to help. Their approach to the transaction, both in detail and at the top level, made the whole process much smoother than I expected. Their dental experience allowed them to guide us in the right direction. I cannot thank them enough for going beyond their remit and guiding us during the process, keeping us on the straight and narrow. I would recommend them to anybody thinking of selling their dental practices.”

Client feedback

“For me, it was clear from the outset of our transaction that [Nicola Lomas] had a depth of professional knowledge around our niche area — a dental practice sale. At times I felt bad for our counterparts, who clearly did not have the same information or depth of understanding from their chosen solicitors.”

Client Feedback, The Legal 500

“From start to finish of the purchase of my first dental practice, Nicola Lomas and the wider legal team at Brabners were efficient and responsive, making the process so much more simple and comfortable for me. Advice through the stickier parts of the process was always detailed and accurate, and helped me avoid a few potential future issues. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Brabners and certainly won't look elsewhere for any commercial legal work in future.”
