Business Transactions in Health Care

At Robinson+Cole, we recognize the unique nature of health care transactions, especially given the ever-changing business and regulatory landscapes. We work on behalf of our clients, within applicable regulatory constraints, to structure a transaction in a manner that helps achieve their business objectives, whether those objectives are to buy a business, sell a business, form a joint venture, or start a new line of business. From initial business negotiations to post-closing operations, we work to understand each client’s business model and how each transaction helps our client succeed.

Our Health Law group is structured to bring the appropriate resources to handle all aspects of a transaction, including corporate and finance, regulatory, privacy and data protection, tax, real estate, antitrust, labor and employment, employee benefits, and intellectual property. We strive to add value by offering concise reasoning and effective, practical solutions designed to address the myriad business, legal, and regulatory issues that arise in the health care industry.
