Alex Tiersch
Alex R. Thiersch’s entrepreneurial spirit has helped him create his own path in business and health care. While building his legal practice in business and employment law, Alex identified a specific need for legal compliance education in the aesthetic market. He founded the American Med Spa Association (AmSpa), a trade group that provides legal and business resources for medical spas and medical aesthetic practices throughout the United States. With over 3,000 members, AmSpa is one of the fastest growing and most sought-after resources in the aesthetic industry, and its website receives over 30,000 visits a month.
Alex is a prolific speaker, lecturing throughout the world on aesthetic regulations and compliance issues. He crossed paths with Michael Byrd several times at medical conferences, and it did not take long for the attorneys at ByrdAdatto (and Alex) to see a natural fit for Alex to join ByrdAdatto. Alex is now the managing partner for ByrdAdatto’s Chicago office.
Alex’s law practice focuses on representing plastic surgeons, medical spas, and aesthetic practices in business and compliance matters. He also contributes to a variety of industry and consumer publications and websites on medical spa legalities and medical spa best practices.
Alex enjoys spending time at his Chicago home with his wife and eight pets (five dogs and three cats).
