This course will take attendees through two crucial cases, illustrating principles of general liability, medical malpractice, and state board procedures. Attendees will learn about corporate and legal structures, where they may be personally vulnerable, which legal entities can protect personal and business assets, and how to build professional license safeguards into their legal structures.
