Health Care Law

Health care law is a defining passion at Tiemeier & Stich, and a multi-faceted practice area that ties the majority of our attorneys together. Inside the doctor’s office, we take on medical malpractice cases, as well as employment practices, helping to draft and advise on contract negotiations, non-compete agreements, employee policies and terminations. We also support our clients with HIPAA compliance, Stark compliance, EMRs and practice dissolutions or splits. Outside the doctor’s office, we also specialize in helping physicians, practice groups, hospitals, and other health care providers with real estate issues, such as development agreements, acquisitions and sales, ground leases, restrictive covenants, physician/practice leases, and land-use issues for the development of medical office buildings and hospitals. In addition, our attorneys regularly represent physicians and practice groups when it comes to corporate governance and certain aspects of practice management, such as bylaws, operating agreements and shareholder agreements, buy sell agreements, and ownership interests.
