Overview

"Medical professionals are among the highest-sued people in the most litigious country in the world, which means if that string of letters behind your name includes a ""D,"" you've got a big target on your back. It's usually not a matter of if you'll find yourself at the wrong end of a lawsuit, but when. What's worse, although for everyone else, a settlement means the end of the matter, that's not so for you. A settlement triggers mandatory federal reporting requirements, so your name goes on the National Practitioner Data Bank, a blacklist for doctors: a list whose entries are as harmful to your career as they are permanent. In those years when you aren't getting sued, you're still a target of the IRS. If you're like most doctors, you're overpaying when that tax bill comes due. It's not all bad news, though. In a country where being sued is common, Law for Doctors introduces you to legions of strategies designed to prevent lawsuits, give you protections if you are sued, allow you to settle without your name getting reported, and keep your assets even if you fight in court and lose. Speaking of assets, there's also sage advice on setting up and running your medical practice or other businesses. Law for Doctors also reassures you that making more money doesn't always mean paying more in taxes. Although founded on thorough legal research and experience in court and business, Law for Doctors eschews legalese for clear and humorous explanations and examples. With the strategies in this book, medical professionals can learn what it means to take full advantage of the protections the law affords. Protection for your license, your assets, your income, and your legacy."
