Overall firm rank
Polsinelli's healthcare work combines business transactions with real estate and regulatory advice. Its published representations include buying, selling, and growing healthcare businesses, with clients ranging from providers and operating companies to private equity investors and family offices. This work places legal advice within a heavily regulated commercial sector.
The healthcare client base described in the firm's materials includes senior living and skilled nursing owners and operators, acute and post-acute providers, behavioral health businesses, and life sciences companies. Transactions in these areas can require coordinating the structure of an acquisition with the properties, operating arrangements, and regulatory obligations of the underlying business.
For students, this practice offers a specific view of how industry knowledge affects transactional work. A healthcare acquisition involves more than transferring ownership: the nature of the provider and its services shapes the legal questions. Polsinelli's healthcare materials show how corporate, property, and regulatory lawyers can contribute to the same business objective.
