Mental health professionals – psychologists, psychiatrists, counselors, family therapists, social workers, and others – are devoted to their clients. That takes a lot of energy.

What they do not want to spend energy on is worrying about legal matters like subpoenas, HIPAA, partnership creation or dissolution, contracts or other unforeseen issues.

Examples of legal work: 1) helping partners break up, 2) writing contracts for new employees, including ones in supervision, 3) reviewing leases for office space and the hidden perils within, and 4) how to take, maintain and keep mental health records, among other things.
