“Win-Win Practice Transitions” analyzes issues every dentist must confront in his or her pursuit of personal and professional practice goals at times of transition. It imparts the level of knowledge required to competently enter preliminary discussions regarding prospective opportunities, collaborate efficiently with their attorneys and accountants, and understand the rights, duties and liabilities created in the process. This information will allow both buyers and sellers, along with their advisors and staff, to maximize the value and transfer of patient goodwill, minimize the legal and financial risks involved and enable each to achieve personal and professional success as they define it.
