As an SLP working on starting her own private practice, I have been extremely satisfied with my experience working with Jackson LLP. Connor, Erin, and Yujin have all been so kind, professional, and knowledgeable when answering all of my PLLC/HIPAA questions. Furthermore, Yujin really went above and beyond with creating a HIPAA manual appropriate for my PLLC and with ensuring that my intake forms were legally compliant, as well as answering all of my legal questions with starting a PLLC. I absolutely recommend Jackson LLP to other therapy professionals looking for an approachable, well-informed law firm for their legal needs.Posted on Tim STrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Great experience.Posted on Meg KelleherTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can’t recommend Jackson LLP more highly. I recently opened my own private psychotherapy practice, and Erin and Connor have been profoundly valuable in helping me consider every element along the way, including the most effective office systems and practice management solutions and legal compliance—in other words, all the necessary details that tend to be the most mystifying and arduous for healthcare providers. Erin and Connor are extraordinarily knowledgeable and detail-oriented while also being realistic, approachable, and patient with regard to my limitations of budget and scope. Working with them has allowed me to preserve my time and energy so I can focus on what I enjoy most about being a therapist: directly serving my clients.Posted on Ivan LevinTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
