Healthcare & Medical Malpractice.
Medicine moves fast and the law follows close behind — licensing, consent, records, and the hard cases where treatment itself is questioned. We advise hospitals, practitioners and patients, beside our insurance and personal injury colleagues.

Overview
Sound healthcare counsel protects the practice so the practitioner can protect the patient. We translate regulation and case law into decisions a clinician can actually use, and we defend those decisions when they are challenged — in the boardroom or in the courtroom.
Medical malpractice defense and meritorious claimant work, licensing-board proceedings, privacy and records compliance, peer review and credentialing, telehealth and consent. Both sides of the counsel table, one standard of preparation.
Our hospital and physician clients are anchored in the Chicago medical community; for cross-border health ventures and foreign-trained practitioners, our London headquarters and associated counsel in Singapore advise under one instruction.
