Healthcare Law

Galloway Johnson Tompkins Burr & Smith understands the risks inherent in providing essential services in the rapidly evolving and highly regulated healthcare industry. Our healthcare lawyers go way above and way beyond for our clients who find themselves in both stable and challenging circumstances. 

In the daily operations of healthcare facilities, we have partnered with clients such as hospitals, psychiatric facilities, elderly care facilities, nursing homes, and home health agencies in protecting their business interests in matters of general liability, premises liability, and employment liability. 

Galloway healthcare lawyers are also experienced in worker’s compensation claims, knowing that healthcare facilities are often significant employers in the communities we serve. Our healthcare clients include two of the three largest pharmacy chains in the United States and the nation’s largest privately held medical transportation company.

Our team has knowledge and expertise in defending medical malpractice cases, and we are trusted by physicians and surgeons, nurses, paramedics, pharmacists, and many other types of medical service providers. 

For the medical professionals and institutions we represent, there is much more at stake than a monetary award.  Our healthcare lawyers know that each case is unique, with its own set of facts, details, and challenges. Whether our clients’ goal is an expedited settlement, mediation, or litigation, Galloway provides result-driven representation strengthened by successful strategies over decades of legal excellence. 

Our team has also regularly defended claims in front of medical review panels under the Patient’s Compensation Fund in Louisiana, under the Texas Medical Liability Act, and under each of the medical negligence frameworks within our geographic footprint. 

No matter your legal health care needs, Galloway goes way above and way beyond in the doctors’ office, in medical transportation, in the hospital, and in the courtroom.
