Physician Contract Review
Whether you're joining a group, leaving one, or renegotiating terms, we protect your interests before you sign.
Physician contracts are complex, consequential, and rarely balanced in the physician's favor at first draft. Employment agreements, partnership agreements, and independent contractor arrangements contain provisions that can significantly affect your income, your autonomy, your ability to leave, and your exposure to liability. Michael Napoli Law reviews and negotiates physician contracts with a single priority: protecting your interests.
Employment Agreement Review
Michael Napoli conducts comprehensive reviews of physician employment agreements, identifying unfavorable terms, hidden obligations, and provisions that are easily overlooked without experienced legal analysis. You receive clear, direct guidance on what the contract means and what it should say.
Key areas of focus include compensation structure, call obligations, non-compete and non-solicitation clauses, termination provisions, and tail coverage requirements.
Partnership & Shareholder Agreements
Joining or forming a physician group involves agreements that define your rights, responsibilities, and remedies as a partner or shareholder. Michael Napoli Law reviews these arrangements to ensure your position is protected and that the terms align with your expectations and long-term goals, before you commit to them.
Restrictive Covenants & Departure Planning
Non-compete and non-solicitation provisions can significantly limit your options after leaving a practice. The firm analyzes these clauses under applicable state law and advises on enforceability, negotiating strategy, and departure planning, so your future is not unnecessarily constrained by yesterday's contract.
Contract Negotiation
Beyond review, Michael Napoli Law negotiates directly on your behalf to improve contract terms, or equips you with the knowledge to approach negotiations yourself. The goal is not conflict. It's ensuring that the agreement you sign reflects a fair, fully informed understanding of your rights.
Read It Before You Sign
Most physicians receive employment contracts with a short window to review and respond. That pressure is intentional. Having Michael Napoli review your contract before you sign is one of the highest-return investments you can make; it can shape years of professional and financial outcomes.
The firm provides timely, thorough contract review so you can sign with confidence, or negotiate from a position of knowledge.
