Health Care

Fowler White Boggs Banker is recognized as one of the top firms in Health  law in Florida.  Most recently, the Firm was ranked #1 in Florida in Health Law by The Best Lawyers in America 2008 edition, with five lawyers recognized in this practice as Best Lawyers in Health law. Chambers USA also recognizes our lawyers in the health care industry.

Because health care may involve business issues which require experience and capabilities in many of our traditional practice areas, lawyers with concentrations in corporate, tax, finance, securities, real estate, immigration, labor and employment, employee benefits and litigation work together to provide comprehensive legal services to our health care clients.  With more than 30 lawyers practicing in the health care industry, our team has the depth and breadth to represent the industry in every facet of the law impacting health care entities and practitioners.

We have lawyers regularly serving the industry in general business, transactional, litigation and regulatory/compliance matters. Many of the lawyers serving the health care industry have more than 30 years experience in cutting edge health care issues.
