Outstanding Physician Contract Lawyer

I had the great fortune to discover Mr. Reinstein when searching for a lawyer to negotiate my second-ever physician contract with a large Boston medical center. He reviewed my 20-something page contract with me line-by-line, indicating every possible term, phrase, and section of the contract that co...uld be used against me. Each of these numerous issues was individually negotiated by Mr. Reinstein, with significant favorable changes achieved for my position. In fact, when Mr. Reinstein first reviewed my contract, he found language that HE himself-years before-had urged the medical center to introduce into its physician contracts to create a more equitable document! Mr. Reinstein's knowledge and thoroughness are phenomenal. I have benefited using him with every contract negotiation I have pursued. It is only now, after working with Mr. Reinstein for the last 5 years, that I realize my negotiating my very first contract without his expertise was a fool's errand that could have cost me dearly!

The best healthcare lawyer for docs

I asked Ezra for help selling my practice and becoming an employee of a large hospital system. Ezra represented my interests vigorously and with finesse. There were very sensitive issues involved in the transaction, which Ezra immediately understood and navigated. He worked with me to identify the tr...uly important problems with the contract documents, and pursued the negotiation carefully and consistently to obtain the changes that I needed. The final result was a better deal, and one that protected my interests more securely. Ezra’s counsel was right on target. I’ve already recommended him to colleagues, and would definitely seek his help again. He’s the best healthcare attorney I’ve ever used.

Best lawyer for physicians

Hi, I wanted to pass on some words about Ezra Reinstein. He helped me negotiate my contract with a hospital. The results were amazing. He identified the problems in the contract, helped me figure out which problems were most important to me, and figured out a way to negotiate positive changes. His an...alysis was astute and clear. I will definitely contact him again for help with my next negotiation. Highest recommendation.

Best Lawyer I ever used!

Ezra is a brilliant, honest, highly skilled attorney. I used him twice, and was completely satisfied both times. He has my absolute highest recommendation to anyone who needs a lawyer. I was founder/CEO of a medical technology company. A rival sued us. Ezra's legal advice helped us end the laws...uit quickly, and very favorably. Then when I was ready to sell my company, he walked me through the negotiations and contracts and helped me get the deal I was hoping for. Best of all, he did all this at a price WELL BELOW what I expected.

"I have worked with Mr. Reinstein on several matters and I have never encountered a more capable negotiator nor a more zealous representative for their client as Ezra in all my years of practicing law. Any client would be lucky to have Ezra representing their interests."

"I am pleased to endorse Ezra Reinstein as a highly skilled, talented and intelligent attorney. I have always found his analysis to be spot-on, and his service to his clients to be excellent. I do not hesitate to refer clients to him for business or health care matters."

"I could simply say "I endorse this lawyer," but that would not do Ezra justice. He is not only smart enough to have been accepted by and practiced with top-shelf (and top-dollar) megalaw firms, but also smart enough to have left them. His academic and professional credentials speak for themselves, so I will state only that he is one of the sharpest -- and wittiest -- lawyers I have had the pleasure of encountering."

"I've had the opportunity to work with Ezra in the past and would do so again. Not only is Ezra sharp and able to quickly cut to the core of an issue, but he is pragmatic, with an intuitive sense of what is important to a client. Furthermore, he has a nice way about him that makes dealing with him a pleasure. He gets my highest recommendation."

"Ezra is a truly exceptional lawyer. He and I served together as co-counsel in an intellectual property case in U.S. District Court. Throughout the course of the trial, I was impressed with Ezra's skills as a litigator. He is diligent and offers a strategy-oriented approach to solving legal problems. Ezra's clients include renewable energy developers, mobile phone app developers, and as well as various intellectual property-holders. I highly recommend his work."

"I worked side-by-side with Ezra at Ropes & Gray LLP for over a year on a number of projects. By regularly observing his contributions to team meetings and daily discussions, I can say with confidence that his analytical skills are second to none, but his ability to illuminate complex issues and reveal the possible dangers lurking in the shadows is remarkable. Ezra is a valuable colleague; a strong advocate and a good lawyer."
