Michael Byrd and Brad Adatto are partners at the ByrdAdatto law firm. ByrdAdatto is a legal powerhouse in the healthcare niche. Michael and Brad understand doctors viscerally. Not just because of their training and client-base but because they are children of physicians.
Today, we discuss what doctors need to know to protect themselves from expected and unexpected medico-legal mayhem – and why smart doctors with good intentions can still land in prison if they lack proper counsel. Every doctor has a different risk tolerance. Every doctor is exposed to different medico-legal risks. The law as it pertains to medicine is rarely black and white. ByrdAdatto guides doctors through the black, the white, and the grey with expert counsel and NO hourly billing. The law is constantly changing. Here’s what doctors need to know.
