Law firm assists medical property acquisition

Gordon Brown Law Firm’s commercial property department has helped to make one medical professional’s dream become a reality, after assisting in the acquisition of a property to be developed into an alternative therapy centre.

Owner Dr Indranil Sen, a GP in the NHS for 12 years, decided to start a business venture that stemmed from his passion of complementary and alternative therapies and medicines. Gordon Brown enabled Dr Sen secure the lease and obtain keys to the property.

Gordon Brown, head of commercial property at the firm, said: “Dr Sen approached us after a property came onto the market in an ideal location for him to establish his practice. It was based in Washington, and no other competitors in the surrounding areas had been identified, making it a prime spot to set up business.

“We undertook full due diligence to ensure the client went into the transaction with his eyes open. Dr Sen was a great client to work with; he listened, took on board the advice we offered, and as a result acknowledged the risk factors in his plan. In committing to the lease he was fully aware of its implications for the project at hand. We wish Dr Sen and his family every success in the venture, and for the future.”

Dr Sen added: “For the legal side of matters, Gordon Brown Law Firm was the obvious choice, based on their reputation as experts in the region known for their attention to detail and professional service. I can’t thank them enough for their consistent support and friendly manner throughout. We are also grateful to Silverstone for their expert advice which enabled us to understand how the property could work for us.

“With my wife, who is a fellow director, I look forward to proving the centre as a viable business. We expect it will take time to establish, however we are confident that word of mouth will help spread news of this essential and valuable service, which is unique to the area.”
