WHAT CLIENTS SAY

"Christy knows the industry elements important to us, particularly around regulatory and employment, so she can diversify her recommendations. She’s a great advocate for industry."
"Christy has a deep knowledge of the industry and varying aspects of law from regulatory to employment."
"She understands how an issue in one area may lead to an issue in another."

MY CLIENT PHILOSOPHY

"My team’s philosophy is that we work hard to be “yes” attorneys. When clients have goals they want to accomplish, it is our job to find a way to help them achieve it and be a partner in that process while telling them the risks and how to mitigate them. We make hard calls and give our clients straight answers to questions instead of pros and cons with no hard recommendations. That’s our job, to survey the vast landscape of ever-changing information and make the tough calls. Our clients are healthcare providers, they dedicate their lives to caring for people. Our job is to take care of them and it is a privilege."
