AJR Legal Advisors, PLLC
When Healthcare Companies Need Experienced Legal Leadership
You may not need a full-time General Counsel
But if you are building or scaling a healthcare company, especially one navigating rapid growth, you probably need someone who has sat on executive leadership teams, advised boards of directors and investors, led acquisitions and strategic transactions, built legal functions from scratch, and helped healthcare organizations navigate complex regulatory environments, particularly those operating in value-based care, population health, and other risk-bearing healthcare models.
That’s where I help.
Meet Andrés
I collaborate closely with founders, CEOs, executive teams, and investors to provide senior legal leadership and hands-on operational support by helping businesses manage risk, move quickly, and execute with confidence. My experience comes from sitting inside healthcare companies, not advising them from the outside.
AJR Legal Advisors was built for healthcare companies that need senior legal leadership but may not yet require a full-time General Counsel. I partner with leadership teams to identify and prioritize risk, solve practical problems, and move important business objectives forward. Beyond day-to-day legal support, I help companies build the infrastructure needed to scale, including stronger contracting processes, practical governance frameworks, and more effective ways of working across teams. A Fractional General Counsel gives growing healthcare companies access to executive-level legal leadership without the cost and commitment of a full-time General Counsel.
Let’s discuss how I can support your team.

Deep Value-Based Care Experience
Few legal advisors have spent years embedded within a scaled value-based care organization.
As General Counsel of Interwell Health, I worked closely with executive leadership, providers, payors, and operational teams to support one of the nation's leading value-based kidney care organizations. My experience includes provider participation arrangements, payor relationships, risk-sharing models, healthcare regulatory compliance, workforce integration, governance, and the operational realities that come with delivering care in value-based environments.
This perspective allows me to provide practical guidance that reflects not only the law, but also how healthcare organizations actually operate.
