Physicians Group Attorneys working for Physicians
Doctors Lawyer-Practice Group Lawyer – A single Physician's skill set is literally a productive asset for a healthcare institution. The average “Physician” has a revenue value of between $2,000,000 to $5,000,000 over a 3-year period, and about 50% of that is contribution toward the profitability of the practice. There are many reasons that such assets need to be well protected. It is important to specify and carve out the roles and responsibilities of all parties accurately, and to have exit/termination clauses that do not unduly allow for either party to take advantage of the other. As Physician Contract Attorneys, our firm helps physicians with doing exactly that, we help physicians understand high-risk versus low-risk contractual provisions and how to best negotiate them and keep the “deal” intact. The healthcare triangle is not easy to navigate through, you need a physician's attorney that can guide you through the legal and business issues you are facing.
