Have you already found a practice to buy?

Buying a practice is a complex process. As well as protecting the transaction itself, you will want to ensure that you have a full profile of the business you are acquiring.

We provide a comprehensive due diligence service to purchasers, covering relevant financial and tax matters. We review and report on the incoming practice’s financial and tax affairs, and work with you to identify underlying profitability and cash generation issues, so you know what to expect for the future.
