We tackle these challenges from the perspectives of aggressive trial lawyers, practical business minds, and forward-thinking attorneys. Our clients’ goals are paramount and we place a premium on cost-effective solutions. We provide full service to clients throughout California and the United States in litigation, medical billing disputes, corporate transactions and structuring, and operations management.
Litigation
Our team of attorneys seamlessly combines specialized knowledge of healthcare statutes, regulations, and case law with decades of experience in business litigation, employment law, and corporate transactions. We can just as easily handle smaller and medium-sized cases as we can sophisticated, high-stakes matters. We work closely and proactively with our clients to meet their goals in resolving each matter.

We represent employers in healthcare-related employment disputes, including, but not limited to: discrimination, harassment, wrongful termination, breach of employment contracts, and retaliation (e.g., under California Health & Safety Code section 1278.5).
