  • Patient privacy

  • Labor and employment
  • Employment agreements
  • Professional liability review and defense
  • Business planning

  • Professional licensure
  • Professional disciplinary proceedings
  • Regulatory filings and hearings

We help clients establish a practice, craft or review employment agreements and address concerns with professional licenses for issuance or discipline.

Our clients include government agencies, individuals, and corporations. We help clients address the ever-changing health care business and regulatory environment. We also craft regulatory and legislative solutions for clients. On behalf of the State of Illinois, we have established and coordinated payment mechanisms as part of this century's health care reform
