It is not easy (or cost- effective) to find a lawyer who already understands your professional life and industry, the demands on you as an allied health practitioner, and your practice environment and values.
Whether you are a chiropractor, physiotherapist, dietician, naturopath, exercise physiologist, podiatrist, or an osteopath, we have the expertise to assist you in the many personal and practice challenges you face, and also in the proactive support, prevention, management, and growth of your profession and business.
We work with our health professional and practice clients at all stages. Our focus is on supporting and building strong, long- term trusted advisory relationships, which our clients find ultimately more beneficial and rewarding than a one-off transactional engagement.
We understand that you are time-poor. We tailor our legal services accordingly. We are available to advise you before, during, or after your busy practice day.
Our advice is timely, clear, succinct, and in comprehensive terms. In instructing us, you have the peace of mind that professional fees are agreed at the outset, so there are no surprises.
In addition to being there when things go wrong, we focus on prevention and best practice. We understand that it is hard to think about the future, but it’s worse if you haven’t. Having agreements, processes, procedures, and plans in place from the outset prevents disputes and unnecessary costs down the track.
Ask us about our practice support services whichthat give you (and designated members of your team) the luxury of having a medical and health industry experienced lawyer immediately on hand to provide support as needed.
