About Holland & Knight

Holland & Knight's services cover corporate transactions, finance, regulated industries, and disputes. Its finance offering includes commercial and asset-based lending, asset finance, fund finance, private credit, and financial services regulation. The corporate practice includes mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures, emerging companies, private equity, and advice on business governance.

Healthcare is a particularly detailed part of the firm's published service offering. Its lawyers address transactions, regulatory compliance, privacy, antitrust, government investigations, and litigation for participants across the healthcare sector. The practice also covers financing, real estate, employment, and restructuring issues affecting those organizations.

This combination illustrates the firm's approach to industry work: a hospital, investor, or healthcare business may need several legal disciplines at once. For students, the breadth makes it useful to distinguish a preferred client sector from a preferred type of legal work. The firm's practice materials show both the specialized regulatory questions and the commercial matters within an

industry.
