A Chicago Law Firm Specializing in Healthcare

“I have a disability and a hospital was trying to force me off their staff. After patiently listening to me and finding out that I am still very capable of safely caring for patients, Barney told me how I could fight that hospital. If it was not for Barney Cohen, I would have quite practicing. Instead, about 10 years after developing a disability, I am happy and my patients are happy…  Whether you are already in a jam or you want advice to try to prevent getting in a jam, I recommend Barney Cohen without reservations.”

“Barney supported me as in-house, corporate counsel at a major health system in Texas, when I was in the role of Administrator of a 141-bed hospital. He served as my “go to” for all legal matters, including everything from professional liability, risk management, contracts, regulatory and medical staff issues. He is very helpful and confident. Outstanding attorney!”

“I had the privilege of working with Barney Cohen on a number of resources for physicians on topics such as physician contracting, hospital medical staff bylaws, medical staff disciplinary actions, EMTALA, etc. I also relied on Barney for advice on how to best assist physicians who turned to our organization for general guidance on any number of aspects of their relationships with hospitals and health systems. Barney is very knowledgeable about a wide range of legal issues affecting physicians, and he excels at identifying solutions to physicians’ often-complex legal situations. I have always been particularly impressed by Barney’s ability to translate legalese into easily understood bites for a lay physician audience. In short, I highly recommend Barney Cohen.”

“I hired Barney to work on my health care employment contract. He is a very bright attorney, well-versed in health care law, and an excellent writer. He is very thorough and professional.”

“Mr. Cohen masterfully negotiated on my behalf favorable terms for my departure from a major academic center. He was very professional and prompt. I would definitely recommend him to anyone with a healthcare/corporate/medical professional regulations issue.”
