Featured Legal Services

Employment and Labor Law
The Health Law Group's employment lawyers provide advice to healthcare employers throughout the country. The firm is experienced in representing public and private, as well as nonprofit and for profit, healthcare organizations in employment, employee benefit, immigration, executive compensation and union matters. Our knowledge of the healthcare industry enables us to quickly understand and help solve the unique problems and concerns affecting this industry.

Fraud and Abuse/Stark
The "Stark" legislation limits the financial relationships between physicians and the entities to which they make referrals. The federal fraud and abuse laws limit the use of financial incentives to induce referrals of items or services paid for by the Medicare or Medicaid programs. Because a major thrust in the reorganization of the health care delivery system is the integration of physicians with organizations to which they refer, including hospitals and ancillary service providers, fraud and abuse and Stark issues are more important than ever.

Tax Matters: For-Profit and Exempt Organization Issues
DWT tax lawyers provide comprehensive services to taxable and tax-exempt purchasers, payers and providers of health care services. The firm's tax lawyers work in multi-disciplinary teams with health care lawyers to respond to specific client needs.
