Form your Speech-Language Pathology PLLC in New York — built for clinic, school & telepractice

Yes. SLP entities are reviewed by NYSED’s Office of the Professions (State Board for Speech-Language Pathology & Audiology) before the Department of State accepts formation. We package your pre-approval (name, scope/purpose, and ownership) to minimize objections and delays.

Ownership and professional control are generally limited to appropriately licensed professionals authorized to provide the PLLC’s services. For SLP entities, that typically means licensed speech-language pathologists. We help you structure members/managers in line with New York’s professional practice rules.

Many New York SLPs serve clients via telepractice. Formation does not change licensure boundaries or payer policies — you must follow NY practice standards and platform/payer rules. We craft purpose language that supports in-person and virtual care within NY.

Yes, many SLPs contract with districts, preschools, or EI programs. Contracting requirements are separate from entity formation. We provide a bank-ready document set and purpose language appropriate for school-based services; program enrollment and credentials are handled with the relevant agencies.

Names must include the proper professional designator (e.g., “PLLC”), be professional, and avoid restricted or misleading terms (e.g., “clinic,” “center,” or claims beyond SLP scope) without additional approvals. See naming conventions for common pitfalls.

Often yes. Many practices expand to additional sites or deliver mobile/home-based services. We set up your formation to support growth and explain county publication implications if you add offices in other counties later.

Yes. We coordinate county-designated publication, manage proofs and affidavits, and file the Certificate of Publication — fully included in the $885 flat fee.

You receive EIN confirmation, filed Articles of Organization, publication affidavits, and the Certificate of Publication — the standard bank-ready set requested by banks, credentialing teams, and landlords.

Timelines vary. NYSED pre-approval can add weeks or months depending on review volume; publication then takes six consecutive weeks. We begin quickly, provide realistic timelines, and keep you updated at each milestone.

Supervision rules (CF/limited permit/assistant) are separate from entity formation. Many SLPs supervise under NYSED guidelines; ownership and professional control of the PLLC remain with licensed professionals. We draft governance to reflect your supervision model and recommend legal/regulatory guidance for complex scenarios.
