Our financial expertise combined with our network of dental specific lawyers aid clients through the career and legal decisions that arise from associate to practice owner through retirement.

Contract Review and Associate Agreements

Dental Professionals will join a practice as associates early in their careers. Associate contracts dictate your earnings potential and career path. These agreements may also have greater legal implications. Dental Professionals should carefully assess these offers and bargain for any limiting clauses, such as a transfer of ownership of patient charts, non-solicitation provisions and most importantly non-compete clauses. In almost every scenario before signing a contract, it is highly encouraged to discuss the contract with an attorney.

Practice Buy In and Partnership Agreements

Many of our clients buy into a practice or become partners in one, this can be very exciting and tempting to begin right away. As a soon to be owner it is crucial to know exactly what you plan to buy/own. These Decisions can highly impact your tax burden, legal liability, management responsibilities and many other factors in your practice. It’s important not to sign such a document unless you feel informed of their consequences.

The leader in helping Dental Professionals protect their future and achieve financial independence.
