Healthcare legal counsel that helps those who help others.
Healthcare Attorney for Practices and Healthcare Businesses
You spend your working life helping others. When the legal questions come, you deserve someone in your corner too. We advise healthcare professional business owners and healthcare businesses in California, Illinois, and Tennessee. Our advice is provided as though our firm operates inside your business because our experience is from within business like yours.
Experience from inside businesses like yours.
Before founding Clesson Healthcare Law, P.C., Craig Clesson spent more than 20 years inside healthcare and life sciences companies, providing legal, compliance, and privacy strategy as part of leadership teams. From that perspective, our firm understands:
With our firm, you'll always know where you stand, and you'll never stand alone.
“It depends” is not an acceptable answer to a legal question.
Healthcare businesses face tough questions in grey areas. “Yes, and” is our firm’s philosophy: there is nearly always a solution that enables your business to move in the direction that you want, often requiring that you take a few additional steps to demonstrate compliance.
Long legal answers are not helpful.
You do not have the time for long emails or videoconferences. Our firm seeks to understand before it seeks to be understood. Our advice strives for clear, actionable recommendations in terms that healthcare businesses understand.
You need to manage a budget.
Healthcare businesses require predictable and affordable expenses. Our firm believes that a flat fee structure, not hourly billing, is best for most engagements. You know what our services will cost for a defined project before the engagement begins.
