I have developed a national practice representing patients and health care providers such as doctors, hospitals, and medical equipment companies in disputes with health insurance companies. I have experience in insurance and health care matters under Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) and related federal and state laws, having led litigation that resulted in two of the largest recoveries ever obtained in health insurance class actions.My work on litigation against United Healthcare led to a $350 million settlement, and in a similar action against Health Net, resulted in a $250 million settlement. I also served as co-lead counsel in other national health care litigation against United, Aetna, WellPoint, CIGNA, and Blue Cross and Blue Shield entities. Recently, I successfully argued health care appeals before the U.S. Courts of Appeal for the Second, Third and Fifth Circuits, and was lead counsel in two recent trials against Blue Cross and Blue Shield entities on behalf of providers and provider associations.
