Being a dentist requires you to comply with complex statutes designed to protect the public from non-licensed individuals holding themselves out as dentists. As a result, in many states, you cannot be a Limited Liability Company, or Limited Liability Partnership, or a general corporation. Our firm has extensive experience representing dentists in their entity formation, ensuring that the individual complies with all statutes and regulations so that (1) the dentist is not accused by their state Dental Board or non-compliance and (2) the dentist receives the liability and tax protections which corporate formations allow. Please note that if you are set up improperly, even if you do not know that you are, you will generally not have the liability protection needed to protect your personal assets from litigation.
