Health Care Law

Don't want to be at your clinic anymore - ready for a change?  Talk to a lawyer with experience advising doctors on how to properly leave a clinic.

Get proper legal advice before you do anything as there might be severe legal consequences of you leaving the clinic.  A structured exit strategy could prevent you from getting sued.

The first step is for me to review your agreement, then we can formulate an exit strategy for you.  This will in most cases require a legal analysis to determine whether the non-compete and/or non-solicit covenants embedded in your agreement are enforceable.  Don't get bullied! A proper exit strategy may prevent you from getting sued.

My practice ranges from corporate commercial to health care law.  I draft the documents that you require to run a successful medical practice, such as: cost-sharing agreements, associate agreement, non-solicitation & non-compete agreement, employment contracts, and commercial leases.

A lot of doctors practice as independent contractors in a clinic through their PC or have a cost sharing arrangement with other physicians. The majority of disputes and conflicts can be prevented by having an associate agreement or a cost sharing agreement reviewed or drafted – I can help you with this.
