CHAD D. HANSEN PARTNER

“My practice sprang from a single client representative looking for a second opinion to help solve a complex and nuanced set of legal issues,” he said.

That relationship led to an opportunity to work first with an organization, and then an entire industry.

“I have found that excellent clients inspire excellence,” he said.

Hansen is co-leader of the firm's Healthcare Payer Practice and a member of the firm's ERISA Litigation and Class Action teams. He represents both plaintiffs and defendants in health care, ERISA, and complex commercial litigation matters in state and federal courts.

Hansen derives his greatest career rewards from the constant evolution in healthcare law and compares healthcare lawyers to professional students.

“In addition to litigation, my practice has counseling and transactional aspects which allow me to be involved in my clients’ business, not just their disputes,” he said. “This work drives deep relationships, and those are important to me.”
