206: Understanding the Legal Elements of Practice Ownership
Our guest on Episode 206 of the Savvy Dentist Podcast has been around in the profession for decades. Dr. Brad Wright is the owner of Dentalegal Solutions, a business that provides legal services for dental professionals. Brad is both a dentist and barrister so his understanding of the profession is immense.
We’ve covered quite a lot of ground in this interview such as handling disputes and conflict, getting consent from patients, top things to look out for when buying or selling your practice, common legal mistakes practice owners make and so much more.
