Biography
I co-Head the Technology. Corporate. and M&A Department of Lipa Meir & Co. I am instructed by a variety of clients across a full range of activities in corporate law, with a focus on cross-border M&A and providing strategic legal advice to Israeli and international clients alike. My diverse client portfolio ranges from start-ups, automotive industry companies, retail businesses, health organizations (public and private alike), cannabis farms and more. I advise my clients in a broad variety of legal matters, covering cross-border M&A transactions, agreements with OEM's, joint ventures, financing agreements and assisting Israeli companies in setting up suitable corporate structures for their international activities. Notably, I advise Israel's largest Health Maintenance Organization (“HMO”), Clalit Health Services, which is also the second largest HMO worldwide, with approximately 38,000 employees, some 4.8 million insureds and which operates 14 hospitals and hundreds of clinics nationwide. Such advice encompasses a multitude of disciplines ranging from “traditional” corporate advice through administrative and regulatory issues raised by health care providers and insureds, including public health, health-care administration, supplementary health insurance, legislation and regulation; and culminating in the innovative fields of medical equipment and devises and utilization of big-data. I was nominated European corporate lawyer of the year in LMG’s Life Sciences Awards 2021, and our healthcare and life science practice has been shortlisted twice (2021 & 2023) for the Israel life sciences firm of the year award. In addition, I am a Legal500 leading individual in the fields of Healthcare and Life Sciences, and also noted in the Commercial, Corporate and M&A and in the Intellectual Property practices.
