About John
In the health care litigation arena, John has prosecuted and defended antitrust claims between competing health plans, between hospitals and physicians, and between hospital systems. He has also litigated matters involving the suspension or revocation of physician staff privileges, as well as disputes arising from physician peer review proceedings. John was lead trial counsel in the only-known case involving the suspension of physician clinical privileges tried to a jury in Illinois. Additionally, John was one of the lead trial attorneys representing a nonprofit hospital before the Illinois Department of Revenue following the unprecedented revocation of its tax-exempt status.
John's prior experience includes more than 13 years of practicing with a large law firm, including five years as a partner. Prior to entering private practice, John served for two years as a judicial law clerk for a federal district court judge.
My fees for legal services are billed at a standard hourly rate. I offer contingency fees, and other alternative fee arrangements, in appropriate cases.
