Our health care trial attorneys have built a reputation for winning through dispositive motion practice or trial verdicts. Our health care litigators concentrate their practice in representing health care clients. We understand the industry and the laws and regulations that apply to it. With this knowledge, together with our extensive trial and appellate experience, we are uniquely positioned to advocate for our health care clients.
Our health care litigation attorneys prosecute and defend actions nationwide. We are involved at all stages of the litigation process, including the initial suit evaluation, discovery, and the trying of all types of cases in state, federal and appellate courts and before arbitrators and mediators.
