Healthcare Professional Counsel
B. Present Law serves as fractional general counsel for dentists, veterinarians, optometrists, and medical professionals — providing the strategic legal support they need to start, protect, and grow their practices.
Who We Serve
We focus exclusively on the legal needs of licensed healthcare practitioners, giving us deep expertise in the regulatory and business environments our clients operate in every day.
We work with general dentists and dental specialists — including endodontists, periodontists, pedodontists, and oral surgeons. From solo practitioners to multi-location DSO structures, we handle the full lifecycle of dental practice legal needs — acquisitions, associate agreements, compliance, and exit planning.
We assist veterinary professionals with practice formation, partnership agreements, real estate, employment matters, and navigating the growing landscape of corporate veterinary consolidation.
Whether you're launching a new practice, negotiating a lease, or evaluating a sale, we provide the business legal support optometrists need at every stage of their careers.
We support physicians and medical practice owners with entity formation, practice acquisitions, employment agreements, regulatory compliance, and the full range of business legal needs.
What We Do
Comprehensive legal support for healthcare professionals launching a new practice — from entity selection and licensing to lease negotiations, vendor contracts, and employment agreements, so you can open your doors with confidence.
Comprehensive representation through the purchase or sale of a healthcare practice, including due diligence, structuring, and closing.
Advising on the right business entity for your practice — professional corporations, LLCs, partnerships — and setting up operating agreements that protect you.
Drafting and negotiating associate contracts, non-compete provisions, compensation structures, and employee handbooks tailored to healthcare practices.
Reviewing and negotiating office leases, build-out provisions, renewal options, and real estate transactions for practice facilities.
Guidance on licensing, state board requirements, HIPAA obligations, and the evolving regulatory landscape facing healthcare providers.
Reviewing technology agreements, equipment leases, lab service contracts, and supplier arrangements to protect your practice's interests.
Counseling on partner buy-ins, buyouts, and dispute resolution to protect your equity and your practice's continuity.
Many law firms handle healthcare transactions one deal at a time. B. Present Law works alongside you as an ongoing legal partner — one who knows your practice, your goals, and your risk tolerance.
Our clients benefit from the kind of proactive, relationship-driven counsel that was once available only to large health systems.
