Bracewell Invigorates Healthcare Practice with Seven-Lawyer Group

August 2, 2021 Brooks Igo

Bracewell said on Monday it is bolstering its healthcare practice with a seven-lawyer group from Thompson & Knight, including the chair of its healthcare practice. 

The announcement comes one day after Thompson & Knight officially merged with Holland & Knight. The lateral group is led by Wilson Jones, who will lead Bracewell’s healthcare regulatory and litigation practice, and includes partners Patrick Bredehoft and Andrew Cookingham; counsel Susan Murphy and Kim McCrea; and associates Brett Rector and Anna Wortham. With the exception of Houston lawyer Murphy, the team is based in Dallas. 

“Building a world-class healthcare practice and expanding our presence in the Dallas market have long been strategic priorities for the firm,” K. Brock Bailey, managing partner of Bracewell’s Dallas office and a member of the firm’s management committee, said in a statement. “Our new colleagues bring extensive compliance, investigations and litigation experience that builds on the regulatory, finance and tax work we do for our current healthcare clients.” 

The seven-lawyer team represents healthcare providers, including hospital systems, pharmaceutical and medical device companies, and medical practices and practice management entities.
