Protecting Your Career with Strong, Strategic Contracts

Physician Employment Agreements You Can Trust

For physicians, an employment contract is more than paperwork — it defines your career, compensation, and future opportunities. At Churchwell Legal Services, we specialize in physician employment agreements, offering clear guidance to protect your rights and position you for long-term success.

Led by Dr. Charles Stanley Churchwell, Jr., DPM, JD, LLM — both a physician and an attorney — our firm provides unique insight into the realities of medical practice and the legal safeguards you need. We understand what’s at stake and ensure that every contract you sign supports both your professional goals and personal well-being.

Our Employment Agreement Services

Contract Review and Negotiations

We analyze every clause, explain its impact in plain language, and negotiate terms that protect your interests and align with your career objectives.

Non-Compete Clauses

Restrictive covenants can significantly impact your future. We evaluate non-compete terms, advise on enforceability under Texas law, and negotiate fairer boundaries when possible.

Incentive Compensation

We review bonus structures, productivity metrics, and incentive pay models to ensure they are transparent, fair, and achievable.

Termination Protection

Your contract should protect you from unfair dismissal. We focus on termination clauses, notice requirements, and severance agreements to secure your financial stability.

Why Legal Review Matters

Too often, physicians sign contracts drafted to benefit the employer or health system, not the physician. Without legal guidance, you may face:

• Restrictive non-competes that limit your career mobility
• Compensation structures that fail to reflect your true value
• Unclear termination provisions that put your financial security at risk
• Missed opportunities to negotiate more favorable terms

An experienced legal advocate ensures your contract supports your career and safeguards your rights.
