Middle East - Israel • Dispute resolution
Lipa Meir & Co
Lipa Meir & Co’s dominant healthcare offering is reflected in its class actions practice, where it acts for leading healthcare providers in major suits; notably, it is handling over 20 class actions on behalf of Clalit Health Services. Environmental law is another area of strength, with Israel Shipyards standing as a key client in that space. Alon Pomeranc steers the overarching litigation department and is the key contact for the Clalit work. Shay Tamar also maintains an active class actions practice.
