The best time to hire us is a few months before you plan to open. Before hiring anyone or buying anything, we will form the correct business entities (LLCs, etc.) for you to track business expenses and help shield you from liability. We will also help you select physical locations and equipment to purchase and review your contracts for these crucial purchases.
If you have already started your business, we can help you to make sure everything is set up correctly, and all of the needed contracts, licenses, permits, insurance, and SOPs are in place.

All of the above. We love technology and are available to our clients through email, phone call, and video conferencing. You can also text us on our firm phone line at (646) 396-0804. Once you are our client, you can schedule an appointment with our team at any time via a secure link.

We have attorneys licensed in many states and work as outside general counsel for our clients in many others. We could guide you on business and healthcare compliance and formation. For states where we do not have a licensed attorney, we work with local counsel as appropriate for particular issues.
We have helped form and advise over 700 healthcare practices in the United States. We have unique experience both as healthcare lawyers and as healthcare practice owners.
No, it is preferred that you work with Lengea before setting up your LLC so that we can support you through the process and offer our suggestions and recommendations should you decide to file it yourself and ensure it is correctly filed.
One of the most common questions is how much to budget when opening a medical spa. The cost of opening a medical spa can vary dramatically. Factors affecting the investment needed include location, space, procedures, staff, local regulations, and equipment. In many states, you could start a medical spa or an IV hydration business with a single injector and a rented room in a shared space. Alternatively, you can lease a building, do a large-scale renovation, purchase lasers, and employ multiple practitioners. The average business cost to start a medical spa is between $50,000 and $300,000.
Knowing your state regulations about the scope of practice for your practitioners is vital to figuring out staffing costs. You will need a prescriber (a Physician, PA, or NP can be used depending on state law) to do the initial good-faith exam and write the treatment plan. IN MOST STATES, an RN can perform treatments like Botox, IV hydration, or fillers. An effective cost-cutting practice for startups is a contract with a prescriber who comes in one day a week to perform a batch of these initial good-faith exams or use an outsourced good-faith exams provider. Afterward, an RN or other qualified practitioner can do the actual treatments.
We also have a medical practice budget, compensation budget, and business plan templates available to our clients.

No, and it is actually better if you do not. It is OK to have a medical director in mind before signing on but it is best to have an attorney working for you to set up your contracts to ensure your MD arrangement is set up correctly and your business entity is in proper form before finalizing a medical director.
However, if you already have a medical director in place, that is ok too; we will make sure your setup with your medical director is compliant.
We also have complimentary lists of potential medical directors available for our clients as a resource if you need help to locate a medical director, can help you with a job posting to search for a medical director, and can also refer you to a medical director matching service.

Finding a medical director can be one of the most challenging parts of starting your med spa. Here at Lengea, we offer our clients access to a list of potential medical directors licensed in their state. In addition, we recommend other services that can be used to assist you with this process.
Working with a medical director with training and experience in supervising the procedures you perform at your business is essential.
Some states have geographic restrictions, residency requirements, and board certification and specialty requirements for who can be a medical director, while other states do not.
In many states, the medical director may be required to be physically on-site to supervise.

It is hard to give an exact amount of time as timing will vary from state to state, depending on requirements. It could be as short as a few weeks or as long as several months. We encourage you to schedule a consultation with our team for a more detailed answer based on your state’s requirements.
Good faith exams establish a relationship between your patients and your medical spa. They are usually needed the first time a patient is seen and at least once a year after that. A medical doctor, nurse practitioner, or physician assistant may perform these exams. We encourage you to consult with an attorney to confirm before hiring someone to work in your medical spa or provide good-faith exams for your patients.
We recommend having general liability and professional malpractice insurance for medical spas. We can further advise you on insurance limits and exclusions once you retain us as your legal counsel.
It depends on which entity is covered and the coverage exclusions. We can discuss the different options and the best way to structure this once you retain us as your legal counsel.
If you ever receive notice of an investigation, your first step should be to contact an attorney. Whether the one you currently have on retainer or a new one, an attorney will know best the legal procedures to follow. Our team of attorneys is experienced in handling board investigations and can help you every step of the way.
Yes, as part of our work for you, we can trademark your business name and logo and discuss other ways to protect your business’s intellectual property. Membership discounts do not apply to governmental filings such as trademarks.
We will provide templates, help you customize them, and review any protocols you put together for their legal effectiveness. Your medical director, or another qualified healthcare provider, should review all medical aspects of the protocols for their medical accuracy.
Yes, we will provide templates we can customize for your needs. You can purchase our pre- and post-treatment instructions separately or sign up for our Lengea Law Membership and receive access to them as part of the membership.
We would be happy to discuss this, as it is a financial and accounting issue as well as a legal one.
Your current LLC may be able to be used as an MSO. We are happy to discuss this further in a consultation.
Can I use a general consent form for all procedures? Or are specific consents needed or recommended?
Specific consents are preferable. We can explain further and provide templates once you retain us as legal counsel.
It depends on the state where you are forming your medical business and whether you are a medical professional, nurse practitioner, or another licensed or unlicensed professional.
If they have their malpractice, that works. If they insist you cover it, many MSOs add medical directors to their insurance. We can explain further and provide recommendations once you retain us as legal counsel.
Start small. Focus on a few essential procedures. Make sure that your legal structure is correct.
We can help you respond to complaints made to all of the different boards and the FDA.
