HEALTHCARE TRANSACTIONS

Healthcare is nearly a $3 trillion business annually in the U.S. alone. Because it is so highly regulated and complex, the transactional side of healthcare requires a breadth and depth of knowledge and experience few firms can offer. A leading innovator in the business of healthcare, we have one of the country’s most active teams of attorneys in healthcare transactions.
