By Brooks Igo – (Aug. 15) – Strasburger expanded its healthcare practice by adding Sam Louis as a partner to its Houston office, the firm recently announced.
Louis is a former Assistant U.S. Attorney in the Southern District of Texas, where he served as the deputy criminal chief of the program fraud group and as the health care fraud coordinator for the DOJ-HHS Medicare Fraud Strike Force in Houston. Louis was responsible for the intake, investigation, supervision and prosecution of all healthcare fraud matters.
“The increasing enforcement activities of groups like the Medicare Fraud Strike Force are driving a huge upsurge in attention to internal governance, regulatory compliance and healthcare fraud investigations and prosecutions,” Kevin Wood, an Austin-based partner that leads the firm’s healthcare practice, said in a statement.
The Thurgood Marshall School of Law graduate will focus his practice at the approximately 220-Texas lawyer firm on the defense of healthcare fraud and compliance investigations. He will also assist in other white collar defense and investigative matters.
