Brent Hill
Partner
Overview
Brent Hill is the leader of Holland & Knight's Healthcare Section. He counsels providers in the physician services, behavioral health, outpatient services and home health sectors in acquisitions, dispositions, and joint ventures of healthcare facilities throughout the United States. Over the past ten years, he has focused on the physician practice management sector, and he represents both selling practices and acquiring physician practice management companies, including private equity-backed companies. He also routinely advises healthcare providers who seek to joint venture with hospital systems.
To enhance the certainty of successful outcomes and protect client interests, Mr. Hill focuses on the determination and equitable allocation of risk between buyer and seller while navigating the regulatory issues that complicate healthcare transactions. His skills as a negotiator, a problem solver and a closer are recognized in both long-term and new client relationships. "He is the quarterback for me and the whole firm," a client told Chambers. "I go to him for everything."
Despite providing counsel in what are often high-pressure, strategic transactions, Mr. Hill realizes that getting to know the CEOs, General Counsel, CFOs and Development Officers with whom he works is a critical element in achieving client objectives. Company leaders appreciate his easy rapport and the way he gains a deep understanding of their priorities and concerns.
