Quick Facts — Physician Employment Agreement Lawyers

Physician Contract Lawyers

When you become a physician, you do so with the motivation of helping and protecting others. However, you cannot forget to protect yourself as well. There is perhaps no other industry that carries the legal risks that medicine does. Here is a quick list by MD Linx of 10 laws every doctor should know.

The first step to protecting yourself is having the right legal documents in place. For this, you need to work with contract lawyers who specialize in drafting, evaluating, and enforcing contractual agreements for physicians.

Are There Many Contracts Needed by Physicians?

Absolutely.

If you are running your own practice, there will be numerous contracts that you need to successfully operate. Some of these are one-time things, such as the purchase of an office for your practice and all the legal agreements that go along with that. Others are consistent and ongoing.

For example, your practice will need to hire various employees. Thus, you will need physician employment contracts. But these contracts are more nuanced in the medical field than they are in other industries. You have to consider aligning non-disclosure clauses with HIPAA, social media and technology privacy, and even metrics for determining when someone is too sick to safely come in to work.

Other physician contracts you might encounter include but are not limited to:

  • Patient-doctor agreements
  • Distributor and supplier agreements
  • Contracts with marketing agencies
  • Agreements establishing a multi-provider practice
  • Contracts between your practice and government agencies

Because the risks are so high, you will want to work with a contract lawyer who has an intimate understanding of your field.

Why You Need to Hire a Physician Contract Lawyer

Contracts in the medical field are incredibly complex. The combination of legal and medical jargon can make them difficult to decipher and increase the likelihood of a loophole being left in that could be exploited, and not to your advantage. A physician contract lawyer knows exactly what your legal agreements should include and what the common pitfalls are, as well as how to avoid them.

Of course, not all the contracts you sign will be your own. A physician contract lawyer can also review those agreements you need to enter into that are offered by other parties. And should there be an issue with either type of contract, your contract attorney can help enforce the agreement.

Secure Your Practice With a Vetted Physician Contract Lawyer

The only way to ensure your legal agreements are protecting you is to work with a contract lawyer specializing in helping physicians. These attorneys know the ins and outs of your industry and how to draft, evaluate, and enforce agreements. ContractsCounsel is a boutique marketplace that makes it easy to connect with vetted lawyers who understand your industry. Save money while remaining protected by working with ContractsCounsel.com.

My name is Ryenne Shaw and I help business owners build businesses that operate as assets instead of liabilities, increase in value over time and build wealth. My areas of expertise include corporate formation and business structure, contract law, employment/labor law, business risk and compliance and intellectual property. I also serve as outside general counsel to several businesses across various industries nationally. I spent most of my early legal career assisting C.E.O.s, General Counsel, and in-house legal counsel of both large and smaller corporations in minimizing liability, protecting business assets and maximizing profits. While working with many of these entities, I realized that smaller entities are often underserved. I saw that smaller business owners weren’t receiving the same level of legal support larger corporations relied upon to grow and sustain. I knew this was a major contributor to the ceiling that most small businesses hit before they’ve even scratched the surface of their potential. And I knew at that moment that all of this lack of knowledge and support was creating a huge wealth gap. After over ten years of legal experience, I started my law firm to provide the legal support small to mid-sized business owners and entrepreneurs need to grow and protect their brands, businesses, and assets. I have a passion for helping small to mid-sized businesses and startups grow into wealth-building assets by leveraging the same legal strategies large corporations have used for years to create real wealth. I enjoy connecting with my clients, learning about their visions and identifying ways to protect and maximize the reach, value and impact of their businesses. I am a strong legal writer with extensive litigation experience, including both federal and state (and administratively), which brings another element to every contract I prepare and the overall counsel and value I provide. Some of my recent projects include: - Negotiating & Drafting Commercial Lease Agreements - Drafting Trademark Licensing Agreements - Drafting Ambassador and Influencer Agreements - Drafting Collaboration Agreements - Drafting Service Agreements for service-providers, coaches and consultants - Drafting Master Service Agreements and SOWs - Drafting Terms of Service and Privacy Policies - Preparing policies and procedures for businesses in highly regulated industries - Drafting Employee Handbooks, Standard Operations and Procedures (SOPs) manuals, employment agreements - Creating Employer-employee infrastructure to ensure business compliance with employment and labor laws - Drafting Independent Contractor Agreements and Non-Disclosure/Non-Competition/Non-Solicitation Agreements - Conducting Federal Trademark Searches and filing trademark applications - Preparing Trademark Opinion Letters after conducting appropriate legal research - Drafting Letters of Opinion for Small Business Loans - Drafting and Responding to Cease and Desist Letters I service clients throughout the United States across a broad range of industries.

"Overall, Max M. did a great job compiling the demand letter. He was very thorough in requesting documentation, responding to questions promptly, and producing the letter. He provided reasonable explanations for the tone that he used along with recommendations for when to send it and what to demand. Additionally, he was very responsive and updated the draft promptly after feedback was provided. There were some minor grammatical errors present, but as Max M. provided me with a word document, I was able to easily rectify those."
