Medicine & Health Legal Services
Whether it’s the management of bad health, striving for good health or monitoring daily health – the health sector is a fast-growing industry capturing new customers and markets with every scientific development. Health practitioners are governed by industry bodies, medicines are scrutinized before going to market and technology is democratizing our health, by putting the power to remain healthy into customers’ hands, or more likely, into their pockets.
But behind the scenes, the medicines and health industry is a highly regulated and carefully managed world. In-depth laws are in place to ensure the practitioners are licensed and practice ethically, the products are safe and advertised truthfully and the medicines sold are safe and legal. As regulations specialists, at Legalese we’re proud to be advising both startups and established businesses on the regulatory hurdles and requirements of operating a medical or health-related business.
