In my “day job” I talk to a lot of Millenials who want to go into health care practices as “associates,” working with baby boomers. These young people come to me with contracts and want my opinion. I don’t give legal opinions (I’m not a lawyer and I don’t play […]
CNBC recently released a ranking of U.S. states as to their competitiveness and top states in which to do business. CNBC used ten weighted categories and combined rankings for all categories to get an overall ranking.
