Updating your Shareholder Partnership Agreements

OVERVIEW

How long has it been that your partnership or group practice reviewed your agreement to ensure it reflects current trends and issues in the medical environment? The agreement the doctors signed many years ago may be vague, contain outdated values for buy-in/buy-outs or none at all, income distribution formulas may be sowing seeds of discontent or the group is suddenly faced with an untimely departure of a revenue producing doctor and also a steep buy-out. This workshop will cover the elements of Partnership/Shareholder/Buy-Sell issues and current trends, particularly the differences between junior/senior members.

WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND

Too often, physicians are faced with an unexpected event such as death or disability and realize their shareholder/partner agreements are woefully out of date or did not include concrete decisions which then result in litigation.
