Nabarro and Eversheds have scored roles on leading care home company Sunrise Senior Living’s acquisition by US group Health Care REIT in a deal valued at $4.3bn (£2.7bn).

The two firms took the lead on UK aspects of Ohio-based Health Care REIT’s investment in the retirement housing firm’s property portfolio, which also included the related sale of Sunrise’s management business to a consortium led by Kohlberg Kravis Roberts (KKR).
