I represent clients on complex legal and regulatory issues, with a focus on healthcare and life sciences clients and on privacy and data security issues.

Michelle Choi's practice focuses on healthcare, life sciences, and technology clients on an array of complex legal and regulatory issues. These issues include reimbursement, compliance, privacy, and data security matters.

In her healthcare and life sciences work, Michelle represents providers, payers, and manufacturers on a broad range of matters, including regulatory compliance and coverage denial appeals.

With privacy and data security matters, Michelle has experience in drafting policies and procedures, as well as advising on cyber insurance issues. She also regularly contributes to the firm’s Security, Privacy & the Law blog.
