Invaluable guidance for our healthcare facility acquisition

Our community hospital board engaged Scott Alfree to navigate the complexities of acquiring a smaller specialty clinic. With over three decades of experience, particularly in health care law, his depth of knowledge was immediately apparent. He expertly guided us through the corporate structuring, due diligence, and intricate third-party reimbursement issues, anticipating challenges we hadn't considered. His recognition in the field, including being named Lawyer of the Year, is clearly well-deserved. Scott’s approach is both strategic and pragmatic; he translated complex legal concepts into actionable advice for our non-profit board. The transaction closed smoothly, and the operational integration is proceeding better than projected. For any significant corporate or healthcare matter in West Michigan, Scott and the team at Varnum are an exceptional resource.
