Business Operations
Your Legal Wellness Partners.
Entity Structuring, Formation, & Compliance
Choosing the right structure for your practice is crucial for both legal protection and financial efficiency. We advise and guide you through the formation of Limited Liability Companies (LLCs), Corporations, Sole Proprietorships, Non-Profit Corporations, and other entities that best fit your practice's needs. We will help you explore the advantages and considerations of each entity type, ensuring your business is structured to optimize tax benefits, limit personal liability, and support your growth objectives while staying compliant.
Contracts, Liability, & Risk Management
We assist with implementing strategies to minimize risk, including drafting informed consent forms, privacy policies, and compliance with HIPAA and other regulatory standards. A large part of our risk management strategy also includes guiding you through the ever-changing intricacies of practicing via telehealth across state lines. We provide proactive advice to help you avoid legal pitfalls and offer robust defense strategies if issues arise.
As a mental health professional, your relationships with third-party providers also play a critical role in your practice's operational efficiency and financial health. This might include billing services, insurance providers, practice management software companies, and so much more. This also includes HIPAA Business Associate Agreements (BAA) that are vital to securing protected health information. We assist in the management of these contracts, ensuring that your agreements with third-party providers align with your practice's goals and comply with industry standards and the law.
We draft and review contracts to safeguard your interests, focusing on clear, comprehensive terms that seek to avoid disputes and foster positive, productive relationships with your providers. We ensure that every contract reflects your needs, and supports your practice's seamless operation.
