Business Creation & Development

Overcoming Business Roadblocks with LivingstonBarger

Businesses are constantly changing. Change comes with opportunities and challenges, including legal obstacles. When change happens in your business, don’t let uncertainty or being ill-prepared put your company at risk.  

Whether launching a business, finalizing your succession plan, or adjusting to comply with new industry regulations, LivingstonBarger is equipped to guide you and your business through any legal hurdle.  

Stark Law restricts physician referrals where a physician has a financial relationship with a referred health service provider. Penalties for violating Stark Law include a fee of up to $15,000 for each service billed and three times the amount of the government overpayment. Civil action may be pursued against medical practices that violate Stark Law. LivingstongBarger has experience representing clients in cases in which Stark Law is involved, and can advise your organization on how to best approach Stark Law related issues.
