Health Care Litigation
Our Practice - What We Do
Our health care clients take a multidisciplinary approach to ensure quality patient care. Snell & Wilmer does the same in health care litigation. Our attorneys are involved in all aspects of health, professional liability and health care product litigation. For more than thirty years, our lawyers have helped shape the law of heath care.
Our Health Care Litigation attorneys devote the majority of their professional time to medical malpractice defense litigation. They are also involved in credential and peer review-related issues and have substantial experience in other types of personal injury and tort cases. Along with highly qualified lawyers and professional, knowledgeable paralegal and support staff, the Health Care Litigation team includes registered nurses with extensive health care backgrounds, who contribute to cost-effective case analysis and preparation.
Because we recognize that litigation exposure poses serious threats to manufacturers, technology and pharmaceutical companies and insurers, Snell & Wilmer lawyers are actively involved in the state and federal tort reform debate. Snell & Wilmer lawyers frequently evaluate law reform proposals, draft bills, facilitate access to decision-makers and provide legislative testimony, when appropriate, on matters of importance to our clients.
