Cobbetts appointed to advise Healthcare Trust Europe

LAW firm Cobbetts has been appointed to a major healthcare panel to supply a wide range of legal advice and support to NHS bodies throughout London and the West Midlands.

The Healthcare Trust Europe framework is a group-purchasing body.  Member organisations are able to access the framework for a range of legal services.
 
Cobbetts will be providing legal advice in several specialist areas, including contract and commercial law, employment law matters, and corporate finance and PFI/PPP projects.
 
Ashley Norman, partner at Cobbetts in Birmingham, said: “We are delighted to have been appointed to the framework. Cobbetts has extensive knowledge in the healthcare sector, and our appointment to this important panel provides access to a substantial number of NHS Trusts.
 
“I am confident that our combination of know-how and value for money advice will be mutually beneficial for both ourselves and framework members.”
 
The appointment reflects Cobbetts’ experience in the healthcare sector, where it has worked on the government’s programme for establishing foundation trusts, acting for more than a third of authorised trusts around the country.
