announce that associate Rebecca A. Edelman Levy has been
listed in the New Jersey Super Lawyers “Rising

various health care clients on structuring arrangements
to ensure compliance with Federal Stark and

proceedings on behalf of individual and institutional
clients and counsels clients on end-of-life and

in New Jersey, California, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois,
Massachusetts, Minnesota, Montana, Nevada, Ohio,
Pennsylvania, Texas, Utah, Virginia, Washington,
Wisconsin and Wyoming. The selection process is made
after balloting the top 5% of attorneys named as Super
Lawyers, as well as conducting extensive independent
credentials research, a blue ribbon panel process and a
final review and check of good standing.
