Who we help

Advice shaped around the rules you work under.

A CQC inspection, FCA query or trustee decision needs a response that fits the facts. We understand that specialist organisations cannot pause daily work while legal questions are answered.

Healthcare providers

CQC registration, inspection preparation, patient-facing contracts and responses to compliance concerns for clinics and care providers.

Care homes

Practical care home legal advice UK operators can use for staffing arrangements, supplier contracts, governance and CQC engagement.

Dental practices

Support with associate agreements, practice structures, due diligence and the legal work behind a successful sale or acquisition.

Medical technology

Contracts and risk reviews for medical technology companies working with providers, distributors, data and regulated products.

Financial services

FCA advice for financial advisers, mortgage brokers, payment providers and insurance intermediaries across their operating cycle.

Charities and schools

Governance, trustee duties, funding agreements and commercial contracts for charities, schools and social enterprises.

Healthcare and care home compliance

Keep the paperwork aligned with the care.

Healthcare organisations face scrutiny from several directions. We review the legal details behind registration, contracts, policies and operational decisions so your records support the service you provide.

  • CQC registration preparation and compliance reviews.
  • Contract advice for residents, patients, suppliers and commissioners.
  • Medical technology terms, distribution arrangements and risk allocation.
  • Investigation support when a complaint or inspection raises concern.
Illustrative case study

A clearer response for a care provider

A care home operator needed to respond to several CQC queries while keeping its homes open and staff focused on residents. We mapped each request to the relevant policy, contract and evidence, then helped the team prepare a focused written response.

The result was a practical action list with named owners, sensible deadlines and a record the board could review. Small steps made the position easier to manage.

Financial services and FCA regulation

Make compliance decisions with the full picture.

An FCA authorisation question can affect ownership, staffing, clients and systems at the same time. Rosie's Legis gives financial advisers, mortgage brokers, payment providers and insurance intermediaries a direct view of the legal work involved.

We advise on FCA applications, policies, compliance reviews, enforcement correspondence, customer terms and commercial agreements.

"They took a complicated FCA question and turned it into a short list of decisions. We knew what to do first, what evidence to gather and when to come back for advice."

Regulated sector FAQs

Straight answers to common starting points.

The right advice depends on your organisation, records and regulator. These answers show where a conversation can begin.

How do I prepare for a CQC inspection?

Start by matching the inspection themes to your current policies, training records, incident logs and service agreements. We can review the legal and governance documents, identify gaps and help you prepare a written action plan. See our regulatory compliance service for related support.

What are my FCA obligations as a mortgage broker?

Your obligations depend on your permissions, business model, clients and appointed representative arrangements. Advice may cover authorisation, customer terms, record keeping, complaints, financial promotions and responses to FCA enquiries. A review with an FCA solicitor in Croydon can help define the immediate priorities.

Can a charity trade?

A charity may carry out trading activities, but the legal and tax treatment depends on the purpose, structure and scale of the activity. Trustees should consider duties, constitutional powers, contracts and any Charity Commission requirements before committing the organisation.

What should I consider when selling my dental practice?

Plan for due diligence, the sale structure, associate and staff arrangements, property rights, patient records and the regulatory steps connected with the transfer. A dental practice sale lawyer can help keep those workstreams joined up. Our commercial law service covers wider business sale advice.
