Mental Health Professionals
At The Legal Department, mental health professionals are very special to us. From social workers to therapists and counselors, we love them all! For an industry that exists to promote emotional, psychological and social wellbeing, it is important for our clients and their businesses to get the legal help needed so that they may continue serving others.
Most often our clients who are mental health professionals come see us to improve their client and worker relationships. These are essential components to have in place for your business to have a strong foundation. If you would like more information on how we assist small business owners in this industry, check out our Resources tab above.
Here’s what our clients who are mental health professionals are saying:
“The process was smooth and went quickly, they were able to help me in a timely manner and made sure I understood the moving pieces along the way. Laurie was very knowledgeable in the details of my matter and took the time to explain things to me in a way that I could understand.”
“Laurie Lee and her team have been tremendously helpful with several issues that have arisen over the past couple of years. Not only is Laurie Lee a great attorney, she is also a phenomenal business coach.”
“I’d give them 6 stars if I could. As a mental health practice owner I’ve always found the legal side of business to be intimidating and quite frankly- scary! I never doubt that I’ll receive top notch service from them and feel very confident in their expertise in the mental health space.”
For mental health services, the two areas of most concern are highlighted below:
Entity Structure
The type, organization, structure, and governance of your business is the most basic aspect of your foundation.
Regulatory Compliance
Many service professionals are governed by specialized rules and regulations in addition to general regulations.
Client Relationships
Having direct, honest relationships with your clients is the key to repeat business, referrals, and long-term success.
Vendor Relationships
When you’re the client, understanding the agreement and how the relationship should work is critical.
Worker Relationships
Relationships with an employee or independent contractor need to be defined to protect your business and clients.
Owner Relationships
Without structure or guidelines to establish expectations and accountability, business partners can pose a high risk.
Trademarks
An important part of protecting your brand is making sure you trademark rights are in place.
Copyrights
Copyrights capture a broad range of things you create for your business or for your clients.
