Our community health system engaged Mark Barnes at Ropes & Gray to advise on a complex merger with a larger regional hospital network. With over two decades of experience, his deep knowledge of health care law was immediately evident. He was particularly adept at navigating the novel regulatory challenges that arose, many stemming from post-COVID-19 compliance shifts, an area where his recognized expertise was invaluable. Mark and his team crafted a strategy that protected our interests while ensuring a smooth regulatory approval process. His Yale-honed analytical skills were on full display as he dissected intricate contractual and liability issues. While his billing rates reflect his stature and the firm's premium positioning, which required careful budget management on our end, the value was ultimately there. Communication was generally excellent, though there were occasional delays in receiving draft revisions from his junior associates. Overall, Mark's seasoned counsel was instrumental in achieving a successful outcome for our organization.
