We Made Big Moves in 2023
We understand our clients need diverse and robust legal services both nationally and in regions seeing accelerated innovation in health care and economic expansion across industries.
Expansion into Pacific Northwest with Six-Attorney Health Care Team in Portland
In July, Epstein Becker Green welcomed a six-attorney health care team in Portland, Oregon. This expansion into Portland reflected the firm’s growth beyond its East Coast roots and long-term California presence into markets where its commitment to the intersection of health care and labor and employment can flourish. The Portland office opened with three new Members, including Eric Neiman, Sharon Peters, and Emma Pelkey, and Associates William Stinman, Eric Werner, and Rachael Grey.
“We’re excited to [...] join a firm that has a five-decade history of industry growth focused in our core practice areas. We know that Epstein Becker Green’s super-boutique model has proven time and time again it can successfully break into new and significant markets within health care, workforce management, and litigation.”
— Eric Neiman, Member of the Firm
“The firm’s relationship with world-class companies and innovators in the employee benefits space is what attracted us to Epstein Becker Green. [We] can’t wait to bring our combined knowledge and clientele to the firm to help Epstein Becker Green meet clients’ heightened demand for employee benefits support in this region and across the country.” — Kathryn English, Member of the Firm
Building on Employee Benefits Practice with Five-Attorney Group in Pittsburgh
In October, Epstein Becker Green announced the expansion of its national Employee Benefits practice with the arrival of five preeminent employee benefits and executive compensation attorneys in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The team included Members Kathryn English, Sandra Mihok, Heather Stone Fletcher, and William Carter and Associate Samuel Nolan, with both Kathryn and Sandra having served on their prior firm’s board of directors. The skills of these attorneys enhance the robust and comprehensive employee benefits services Epstein Becker Green provides to clients. Other recent additions to the Employee Benefits practice also included Member Jeb Gerth in Nashville and Senior Counsel David Diaz in Washington, DC.
Expansion in Florida
Tampa's dynamic business landscape is constantly evolving, and hospitals, physician practice groups, and other health care institutions have driven much of the city’s recent growth and represent much of its innovation.
With offices in Tampa and St. Petersburg, Epstein Becker Green is ready to serve clients from both sides of the Bay.
