Our national antitrust and trade regulation practice brings extensive experience in antitrust litigation, compliance and consulting to the healthcare industry. The new privacy regulations enacted with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), have created a tremendous administrative and compliance burden on all healthcare providers. Our attorneys have years of expertise advising clients in the intricacies of compliance with these regulations, whether it be for record storage, litigation management, or policies and procedures. Our white collar defense team, headed by a past Chief of the Criminal Division, United States Attorney Office for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, enjoys a national practice. We recognize that the increased allegations of business related misconduct in criminal or collateral civil contract and fraud litigation is a real and recurring problem. We work closely and extensively with the healthcare industry in defense of those problems. The proliferation of employment industries in the healthcare field has tremendously increased costs to the industry. Our specialists handle the entire range of workplace issues from claims of wrongful termination, age and sexual discrimination, and the variety of workplace injury issues that affect the day-to-day operation of your workplace.
