Job description

The law firm of Poyner Spruill is looking for an attorney with 5+ years of experience in health law litigation to join us in our Raleigh or Charlotte office. We are willing to consider both associate and partner level candidates as well as candidates who may not reside in the Raleigh or Charlotte market but have the ability to work remotely and be in those offices on an as-needed basis.

We are seeking a driven and enthusiastic attorney to join our hands‑on health law group, which offers sophisticated and varied practice. This position will focus on Medicare and Medicaid fraud, civil investigative demands, reimbursement disputes, government payor audits, professional licensing matters, and regulatory compliance; areas that may appeal to candidates interested in the intersection of litigation and healthcare law.

Candidates must be licensed in North Carolina, hold a JD from an accredited law school, and have a strong academic background. We seek strong legal research, writing, and advocacy skills, sound judgment, attention to detail, and the ability to collaborate and communicate complex legal issues clearly to clients.

Our Team:

Our healthcare practice represents providers and healthcare businesses in regulatory, reimbursement, transactional, and litigation matters. The practice includes Medicare and Medicaid audits and payment disputes, government investigations, administrative appeals, professional licensing proceedings, and matters involving False Claims Act allegations, reimbursement suspensions, and provider contract terminations. We also counsel clients on HIPAA compliance, healthcare licensing, contracts, and business formation, serving providers across long‑term care, primary care, home health, hospice, behavioral health, and laboratory services.
