Working With Lengea
Why You Need a Law Firm When Starting a Med Spa or an IV Hydration Business
Starting a medical spa or an IV hydration business can be an exciting venture, but it also comes with its fair share of complexities. Navigating the legal landscape is crucial to ensuring your business is successful and compliant with each state’s laws and regulations. Here’s why working with a law firm like Lengea Law is essential when launching your med spa or IV hydration business.
Tailored Advice Based on Your Needs
Every med spa or IV hydration business is unique, influenced by factors such as location, target clientele, the owner(s) business goals, and specific services offered. A good law firm will provide practical, business-specific advice tailored to your risk profile, geographical location, and experience in this area. The bespoke guidance from a law firm helps identify and address potential legal pitfalls before they become costly issues.
Because in this area of business, there is often no pre-opening inspection from a government agency, anyone can start a med spa without following the laws. Big problems happen when a competitor files an anonymous complaint against your business after it’s open. This is happening more and more often. Once this happens, a government agency typically opens an investigation and goes after your license if you are not compliant.

Lengea is not just a regular law firm. We blend our hard-earned legal experience with practical business-focused solutions to provide our clients with counsel tailored to their business needs.

Compliance is Key
It’s tempting to mimic the structures and compensation models of other med spas, especially those that appear to be thriving. However, just because a practice operates in a certain way doesn’t mean it’s compliant with the law. Some companies may offer you boilerplate contracts that don’t represent your interests, are not customized to your situation, and may be non-compliant in your state’s laws. Lengea Law ensures that all your business practices and documents fully comply with local, state, and federal regulations and is there for you whenl you get a visit from a government agency.
Contracts: Don’t Do It Alone
While many med spa consultants may offer reasonable contracts as part of a package of services, that doesn’t mean the contracts are suitable for your jurisdiction or address the specific needs of your business. It’s important to remember that attorneys are legally and professionally bound to faithfully represent your interests. The contracts you find online or may receive from MD-focused consulting firms may not necessarily do the same. To protect yourself, your license, and your business, independent legal representation must review these contracts to save you from misunderstandings and potential legal trouble down the line.
Personal Service Matters
At Lengea Law, you won’t just get generic advice from a robotic service. Our team is dedicated to providing personal, accessible support whenever and wherever you need it. Whether you have a quick question or need comprehensive legal assistance, we’re here to ensure you have the guidance necessary to navigate the complexities of starting and operating a med spa. Our hands-on approach means you’ll always have a trusted advisor by your side.
Board Investigations
Board investigations are becoming the new normal for aesthetic practices. As your legal team, Lengea Law will be there for you if your practice receives an unexpected visit from a government agency. We will protect your license and ensure that you are prepared to handle any regulatory scrutiny with confidence and peace of mind.
