The firm said he brings experience in antitrust litigation, merger reviews, and government investigations, including matters involving the healthcare sector.

    Foley Hoag LLP. Foley Hoag added healthcare attorney Lauren Carboni as a partner in its Healthcare Department in Denver. Carboni advises healthcare providers, hospitals, physician groups, and behavioral health organizations on regulatory compliance, fraud and abuse matters, government enforcement actions, False Claims Act litigation, internal investigations, healthcare transactional due diligence, and administrative appeals. The firm also highlighted her work involving regulated psychedelics and cannabis businesses.

    Squire Patton Boggs. Squire Patton Boggs refreshed leadership across several U.S. offices and practice groups, including the appointment of Kendra Sherman as leader of the firm's global Environmental, Safety and Health Practice.
