PERSONALIZED LEGAL SERVICES EXCLUSIVELY FOR PHYSICIANS

Formation and representation of physicians and practices

We provide a full complement of services for physicians. In forming a new practice, we offer services from tax and business planning for the type of entity, to actual incorporation and filing of tax elections. We have assisted physicians in a broad range of specialties, including anesthesiology, bariatric surgery, breast surgery, cardiothoracic surgery, cardiology, dentistry, dermatology, emergency medicine, family practice, gastroenterology, general pediatrics, general surgery, geriatrics, gynecology, hematology, hospitalists, internal medicine, medical oncology, nephrology, oculoplastic surgery, optometry, ophthalmology, orthopedic surgery, pain management, pediatric cardiology, pediatric ophthalmology, pediatric surgery, pathology, plastic surgery, psychiatry, pulmonary medicine, radiation oncology, retinal surgery and vascular surgery.

As part of our focus on the legal needs of physicians, we are one of just two law firms approved by the Pennsylvania Medical Society to review contracts on behalf of its members.

We provide representation in most areas of law, from tax advice to the more mundane (but vital) areas of drafting employment agreements, shareholder buy-sell agreements and other operational documents for the day-to-day practice. A key to serving our clients well is our ability to "think outside of the box", which is instrumental in designing and negotiating innovative forms of joint ventures between hospital and physicians for the delivery of services.

Because we concentrate in health law, we can often foresee potential regulatory problems in esoteric areas such as fraud and abuse before a transaction is consummated, thus assuring our clients that they will not unwittingly violate this complex and changing area of the law.
