Medical, Legal, and Professional Corporations

We assist physicians, family therapists, clinical counselors, attorneys, and other licensed professionals with properly establishing California professional corporations along with the preparation of contractual agreements necessary for the conduct of their business.

Forming a California professional corporation requires more than filing standard organizational documents. State law imposes detailed requirements concerning ownership, management, the qualifications of shareholders, directors, and officers, and even the words that may be used in a professional corporation’s name. Failure to satisfy these statutory and regulatory requirements will create significant legal and operational problems. In serious cases, an improperly structured entity or noncompliant arrangement may expose licensed professionals to regulatory scrutiny or disciplinary consequences.

We have assisted our professional clients with the following:

  • Forming legally compliant California professional corporations

  • Registering legally compliant fictitious business names (DBAs) for California professional corporations

  • Restructuring existing business entities that were improperly organized or non-compliant

  • Professional services agreements

  • Patient agreements for medical practices

  • Concierge doctor agreements

  • HIPPA privacy notices and related documents

Our goal is to help our professional clients lay a firm foundation for their future growth so that they can focus their energies on growing their business.
