So... why should I consult a health lawyer?

There are lots of different types of lawyers out there.  Family lawyers focus on divorce and custody issues.  Personal injury lawyers focus on helping people who have been injured.  Business lawyers focus on BUSINESS ISSUES.  “Business Health Lawyers” focus on HEALTH LAW and how it affects the success of your practice. Our whole world is contracts and documents.  We LOVE reading and reviewing the mountains of paperwork so you don't have to!  We're really good at making sure the words in those contracts are the right words to protect you and your business.  Don't use a bankruptcy lawyer for a thriving business... instead, call Pero Law.

Health law is it's own beast.  Think massive laws like HIPAA and the Affordable Care Act.  Have you read a managed care contract lately?  If you're running a business associated with the healthcare industry and you're not using an attorney proficient in health law, well... it's time to make a change.  It's really important to find a lawyer who knows what they're talking about.  

For example, a terrific business attorney could draft a killer employment agreement for your medical professional employee.  But if that employment agreement doesn't include a reassignment of billing rights, language protecting you from an excluded provider, and very specific compensation language, you need to talk to Pero Law.

For example, you're selling your healthcare practice to a large group. You ask your neighbor, a real estate attorney, to review the paperwork. He doesn't tell you that the Agreement states the buyer will get all the pre-Closing receivables you collect post-Closing (because real estate attorneys don't understand the third-party payor system) and you lose three+ months of income. If you don't understand which parts of your practice you're selling, you need to talk to Pero Law.

Call us.  We get it.
