Proven litigators

Fulbright & Jaworski is consistently ranked among the top firms in the United States for litigation and has represented a wide range of nonprofit healthcare, educational and charitable entities.

Our public sector litigation experience is particularly valuable for tax-exempt public entities. This work requires an in-depth understanding of the unusual procedural and substantive law governing this area.

Out litigation work for nonprofit organizations has included virtually all areas of their operations, such as labor and employment, employee benefits and tax matters.

Nonprofit health facilities

Fulbright's Health Law practice group has a long record of successful hospital/physician defense cases involving claims of medical malpractice/professional liability. Our lawyers are especially adept at handling expert witnesses with regard to medical causation issues.

We also assist with litigation and regulatory issues related to Medicare/Medicaid reimbursement and fraud and abuse claims, medical staff credentialing and managed care contracts.
