The life sciences industry is highly innovative and its participants are constantly searching for the cutting edge. It requires scientific achievement in the lab, business savvy in the C-suite, and regulatory experience in the halls of government. Drug makers, medical device manufacturers, clinical research organizations, and advocacy groups have to adapt as their industry moves forward – and the law evolves with it.

We also regularly advise clinical laboratories, government and nonprofit research organizations, entrepreneurs, and scientists. We have been helping build a robust infrastructure for life sciences companies for more than 35 years, including through our representation of the North Carolina Biotechnology Center since its inception. Today, we partner with state and local economic development alliances and industry groups that support the life sciences from Atlanta to Washington, DC.
