Running a doula practice in Georgia requires more than just a place to store birth balls and lactation supplies; you need a legal framework that distinguishes your non-medical support from healthcare services. This lease agreement is specifically designed to protect doulas from medical liability while ensuring compliance with Georgia-specific standards, such as the Fair Business Practices Act and the Georgia Statute of Frauds. By defining the 'use of premises' strictly for prenatal and postpartum support, you mitigate the risk of unauthorized medical practice claims and secure your on-call accessibility.
Beyond the standard lease agreement sections, this template adds fields specific to Doula:
A lease agreement serves as a legally binding contract that outlines the rights and responsibilities of both a landlord and tenant when a property is being rented. Its core purpose is to safeguard both parties' interests by clearly defining all terms related to the tenancy, including payment obligations, property use, and duration of the agreement.
Birth Outcome Liability
Include disclaimers in contracts that clarify the doula's role as non-medical and state explicitly that birth outcomes cannot be guaranteed.
Scope of Practice Violations
Draft clear scope of service documents that delineate non-medical support functions to avoid accusations of unauthorized medical practice.
For this lease agreement to be legally valid:
Common mistakes to avoid:
This depends on the 'Use of Premises' clause and local zoning. In Georgia, unauthorized medical practice is strictly regulated; unless your space is licensed as a birth center, the lease should explicitly state the space is for non-medical prenatal and postpartum support to avoid liability under the Georgia Fair Business Practices Act.
Under O.C.G.A. § 13-5-30 (Georgia's Statute of Frauds), any lease agreement intended to last longer than one year must be in writing and signed to be enforceable in a court of law.
While O.C.G.A. § 34-7-1 establishes at-will employment, it does not apply to commercial leases. Your lease is a fixed contract. However, ensure your lease doesn't contain overly restrictive covenants that violate the Georgia Restrictive Covenants Act if you plan to sublet to other birth workers.
