Earned announced a strategic partnership with Dental & Medical Counsel (DMC), a firm specializing in legal services for medical and dental professionals.
This partnership expands Earned’s national reach and adds a legal services capability to the company’s integrated platform designed for healthcare professionals and practice owners. The agreement also brings 4,000 doctor clients to Earned while strengthening its support model for physicians, dentists, and other healthcare specialists.
DMC’s team of 15 professionals will integrate into Earned’s nationwide team of more than 215 employees, reinforcing the firm’s West Coast presence. The combined organization will now offer clients access to legal counsel for areas including practice transitions, employment agreements, leasing and real estate matters, partnerships, succession planning, and estate planning. DMC’s legal services are utilized by a broad range of healthcare professionals, including physicians, dentists, and optometrists.
This partnership represents Earned’s fifth transaction in the past sixteen months and further strengthens its position as a specialized services provider for healthcare professionals. Earned now supports more than 17,500 clients and oversees $2.4 billion in assets under management.
The company has completed several acquisitions in recent years, including PearsonRavitz, Schwartz & Schwartz, Chahal & Associates, and Thomas Doll. Earned previously secured a $200 million growth investment to support its expansion strategy.
Earned continues to focus on building a single, unified platform to help healthcare professionals better manage financial, operational, and now legal aspects of their careers and practices. The company plans to continue adding complementary service providers to support this goal.
