How a Health Care Business Hired a Lawyer to Review a Buy Sell Agreement in Maryland

In 2026, a business in Maryland sought assistance with a buy-sell agreement related to an ophthalmology medical practice. The client, a co-owner facing medical disability, needed a thorough review of the drafted agreement to ensure it met their needs and included specific clauses, such as a restrictive covenant that aligned with the partnership agreement. With the concerns about the fairness of the terms, particularly regarding the parameters of the restrictive covenant, the client wanted an experienced attorney to offer insights and suggest modifications. As a result, the client received 10 proposals from licensed lawyers, with flat fee bids ranging from $450 to $2,500, all submitted to complete the work within the requested deadline of more than a week.
