For clinicians opening a practice, adding a service, or reviewing how an existing business operates. Get focused legal guidance on the questions relevant to your plans.
How the firm can help
A focused review for your next step.
You may have a full set of practice documents or one question about a proposed service. We define the review around the decision you need to make.
Therapists & wellness businesses
Questions about proposed services, professional boundaries, use of credentials, documentation, consent, and how services are described in marketing.
Ownership & practice structure
Analysis of ownership, entity structure, licensing considerations, professional arrangements, and other legal questions raised by your operating model.
Existing documents & new services
A limited review of a document set, policy, or regulatory issue, including changes to an established practice or the addition of a new service.
What to expect
Know what the review will cover.
We identify your proposed services, professional role, and the question or materials to be reviewed. After conflict review, the engagement sets out the scope, fees, and agreed deliverables.
Depending on the project, work may include written analysis, document comments or revisions, and a discussion of next steps. A focused review is not a certification of the entire business or a guarantee of regulatory approval.
What the work may include
- Comments or revisions to the agreed forms, policies, or website language.
- A written assessment of a defined practice or professional-boundary question.
- A discussion of findings, remaining questions, and next steps.
Deliverables depend on the agreed engagement; not every item is included in every project.
Work is handled by Malcolm Freeman, a Florida attorney with business, occupational-therapy, and healthcare-administration training. Meet your attorney.
Common questions
Before we begin.
Can you help with just one question or a few documents?
Yes. A limited-scope project may be appropriate when the issue can be responsibly addressed on its own. You do not need to retain ongoing counsel to discuss a focused review.
Do you work with solo clinicians?
Yes. Inquiries are welcome from individual clinicians, including nurse practitioners and therapists, as well as practice owners and healthcare businesses.
Can a cash-pay or wellness business request a review?
Yes. The review can examine the proposed services, professional credentials, and operating model. Calling a service wellness or accepting only cash does not answer every legal question about it.
Can the work be quoted as a flat fee?
A flat fee may be appropriate for a well-defined review. The firm first considers the question, materials, and scope; fees are confirmed before work begins.
Your next step
Let’s talk about what you need.
A continuing relationship or a focused project starts with a conversation about your needs, timing, and the appropriate scope of work.
