Health Care law is constantly changing. For years, the experienced healthcare lawyers at McKenna Storer have advised and represented health care providers in all branches of health care. We focus on staying abreast of changing regulations and distilling complex, new legal information to help you keep up with healthcare reform and evolving medical best practices.

For healthcare providers, a malpractice lawsuit is more than just a claim for money; it can ruin a career and forever damage a reputation. If you are at risk or faced with such litigation, we work closely with you to develop a legal framework that will help you stay compliant while continuing to deliver high quality medical services. Since 1970, McKenna Storer’s health care law division has served a wide variety of clients including:

• Physicians
• Nurses
• Midwives
• Chiropractors
• Surgery centers
• Healthcare and specialty facilities
• Medical corporations

An accusation of negligence impacts your license, insurability, privileges, practice, reputation and, in some cases, even financial security or retirement. Deep knowledge of the medical industry and legal matters, gives clients the confidence that we will protect and defend their interests. You can rely on us to manage the legal aspects of your healthcare practice so that you can focus on helping your patients heal and recover.
