Physician Practices and Transactions/Joint Ventures

Transactions and joint ventures involving physicians can be challenging. Whether we are representing individual physicians, single or multi-specialty groups, hospitals, entrepreneurs or other health care businesses, the Health Care Practice gets these deals done. We are familiar with the models (in many cases as part of the design team), know how to structure the deals, and have successfully navigated the ever-present regulatory shoals, always with an eye on the evolving economic environment. And we’re keenly aware that how the deal gets done can sometimes be even more important than what the deal ends up being.

We respect and admire physicians, recognize the many roles they play, and understand their uniquely personal perspectives on the “business” of health care. Our attorneys can help balance the needs of physicians against the business and legal demands often encountered during transactions. As a result, we are able to play a valuable role in crafting transactional solutions that achieve mutually beneficial and long-term sustainable results, regardless of who in the physician deal we are representing.
