Healthcare Transactions Associate Attorney (Mid-Level)

Location: Washington, DC / Los Angeles, CA / Chicago, IL / Philadelphia, PA / Houston, TX / Dallas, TX

Salary: $235K – $365K

Advert Code: MLFS197

A nationally recognized law firm is seeking a mid-level Healthcare Associate to join its Corporate, M&A, and Securities practice. This is an exciting opportunity to work at the intersection of healthcare regulation and transactional law, advising a diverse client base that includes healthcare providers, investors, and strategic acquirers.

This role is ideal for an associate who wants to build a specialized healthcare practice while remaining deeply engaged in sophisticated transactional work.

What You’ll Do

• Advise clients on healthcare-focused M&A and private equity transactions
• Provide strategic guidance on complex healthcare regulatory frameworks, including fraud and abuse laws and reimbursement considerations
• Draft and negotiate a variety of healthcare and commercial agreements, including physician employment agreements, management services agreements (MSAs), and vendor contracts
• Support due diligence efforts with a focus on regulatory compliance and risk assessment
• Work closely with clients to navigate evolving healthcare laws and transactional structures
• Collaborate across practice groups on multidisciplinary matters

What They’re Looking For

• 3–6 years of experience handling healthcare transactions within a law firm or corporate legal environment
• Strong understanding of healthcare regulatory regimes, including Stark Law, Anti-Kickback Statute, HIPAA, and corporate practice of medicine doctrines
• Experience drafting and negotiating commercial and healthcare-specific agreements (preferred)
• Excellent research, writing, and communication skills
• A self-starter with strong interpersonal skills and the ability to work effectively within a team
• Strong academic credentials and professional judgment
• Admission to the bar in the relevant jurisdiction
• J.D. required, along with prior experience working in a law firm

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• Unique blend of regulatory advisory and high-value transactional work
• Opportunity to develop deep expertise in a highly specialized and in-demand sector
• Exposure to a broad, national healthcare client base
• Collaborative and supportive team environment with strong mentorship
• Competitive compensation and comprehensive benefits package

This is a compelling opportunity for an associate looking to carve out a niche in healthcare law while remaining engaged in sophisticated corporate transactions.
