Entity Selection and Business Formation
We help with the selection of your business entity and the creation of California Professional Corporations (PCs) as well as Management Services Organizations or MSOs. The California Professional Corporation provides unique legal and financial protections as well as expanded opportunities regarding benefits and retirement. The MSO can be a perfect companion to a medical practice or healthcare business as it relieves the medical team of all non-medical business related activities and services to allow medical professionals to focus upon the delivery of healthcare and related services.
Healthcare Corporate Governance and Compliance
Watkins Firm attorneys regularly work to ensure full healthcare corporate governance and compliance with all federal, state and local laws and regulatory issues such as OSHA, HIPAA and Sarbanes Oxley. We advise clients on legal developments which impact many issues across the board, from independent contractor relationships to employment related issues. We draft the agreements and policies which govern the day-to-day operations of your San Diego healthcare business or medical practice.
The Watkins Firm understands the unique legal standards, restrictions and idiosyncrasies of medical practices and healthcare providers. Our physician, nurse and medical professional contracts ensure a clear understanding of compensation, protection of trade secrets and patient information while facilitating healthcare employment across the region.
Our experienced business attorneys also represent individual medical professionals as well as healthcare entities in all forms of professional and business related disputes which may arise. We take a unique approach to dispute resolution which is designed to resolve the issue(s) at hand in a cost-effective and timely manner.
Our decades of service to the San Diego medical and healthcare business community provides our clients with the confidence inour ability to handle all operational, legal, insurance, dispute and business related issues so they may focus on delivering exceptional quality medical services while maximizing compensation and income retention.
