Healthcare

GRSM’s healthcare practice is comprehensive and full-service. Clients rely on us throughout the life cycle of their business, from acquiring property and setting up operations through licensing and certification, employee relations and defense against professional liability claims. Our team includes lawyers with healthcare-related degrees and experience working for healthcare providers and government agencies. Wherever our national and regional healthcare clients do business, or plan to do business, we support them, every step of the way.

The more than 125 lawyers in our practice represent a range of healthcare interests: hospitals, long-term care facilities, skilled nursing facilities, correctional healthcare providers, behavioral health facilities, private practices and diagnostic testing facilities. Our clients also include managed care entities, medical and dental practices, medical device manufacturers, mental health, physical and massage therapists, and provider networks.

Each client benefits from our experience with legal, medical, regulatory and business considerations within the healthcare context.

For example, our trial attorneys have achieved defense verdicts in high-demand trials alleging elder abuse, birth injuries and wrongful death, and our transactions team has guided a national chain of nursing homes in its multistate change of ownership. Our prominent role in healthcare trade associations helps us keep clients ahead of emerging regulations and available for new opportunities in a competitive business landscape.
