Nelson Hardiman is the largest healthcare specialty law firm in Los Angeles. It has earned a reputation as a dynamic forward-thinking firm at the forefront of an industry growing exponentially. Coupling the healthcare and life sciences expertise of its attorneys with the innovative vision of founder Harry Nelson, the firm has attracted both institutional and cutting-edge providers as clients, driving the most complex interesting bet-the-company work to the firm. As such, its attorneys and staff are fully engaged doing meaningful work that is making a difference in the lives of people in our communities and beyond. The firm not only cares deeply about its team, but about having a transformative, positive impact on improving healthcare locally, regionally, and nationally.
There’s little turnover so most of the attorneys and staff have known each other for a long time and enjoy spending time together. There are monthly all firm meetings and monthly all attorney meetings which, in addition to ensuring the firm is running smoothly, help create a sense of camaraderie. Name partner Mark Hardiman has fostered a social culture that makes for a diverse but tight-knit group that genuinely like working together. The firm uses its annual retreat (with spouses) to foster an open environment that addresses things many law firms are afraid to tackle.
