The Dental Lawyer | About the Author

At the time of the writing of this blog, I am a 27 year old attorney practicing law in New York. I am based in Albany, NY but because of the nature of my practice I take cases from across New York State. I graduated from the Albany Law School, cum laude, in 2010 with concentrations in Tax Law and Estate Planning. After and during law school I worked for a local law firm, but decided to leave to pursue my own endeavors.

I am also a Practice Transition Consultant with Henry Schein Professional Practice Transitions (PPT). Henry Schein is the United State’s largest supplier of equipment and supplies to medical, dental, and veterinary offices, and PPT is a subsidiary of Henry Schein focused on the needs of dentists and dental specialists who are considering buying or selling a dental practice. PPT also focuses on as other specialized needs of dentists like retirement and estate planning. As a Practice Transition Consultant I am a sort of independent contractor for PPT.

In addition, I am also President of Dental Transitions of Upstate New York, LLC. Initially I formed Dental Transitions of Upstate New York, LLC as a vehicle to hold my contract with PPT and to separate my practice brokering business from my legal practice. Soon, however, it became incumbent upon me that in addition to offering legal and practice brokering services to dentists, there is also a market for other non-legal services required by dentists and dental specialists. Dental Transitions of Upstate New York, LLC has become the entity through which I’ll offer some of these other services, such as Practice Management Consulting, Business Financial Consulting, Accounting Service, and Associate Placement Services.

In short my goal went from developing a legal practice that would be one stop shop for the needs dentist, to just developing a one stop shop for all the needs of dentists.
