Dallas Bar Association

Health Law Section

Provides an organization of attorneys representing all segments of the health care law industry with educational programs addressing current issues in this complex and diverse area of law.

Meeting Schedule:

The Section typically meets the third Wednesday of each month.

Section News:

Our speaker for the May 16th meeting will be Joel Crouch, a partner at Meadows, Collier, Reed, Cousins, Crouch & Ungerman LLP.  He will discuss how the IRS and other state and federal agencies are specifically targeting the relationship between health care companies and their workers and making it much more difficult to have independent contractors.  Learn what to look for and options for protecting your client.
