Polsinelli welcomes Dallas attorney Alexis L. Angell as an associate in the firm’s Health Care Litigation Practice. Angell brings experience in handling a variety of litigation matters on both sides of the docket to Polsinelli, having represented major insurance carriers at trial and arbitrations in matters involving medical necessity issues, breach of contract and interpretations of various insurance regulations.

Angell accompanies Sherri Alexander, a shareholder in the Dallas office, who has also recently joined the firm bringing over 25 years of experience in health care and commercial litigation. As vice chair of Polsinelli’s Health Care Litigation Practice, Alexander said Angell is a great addition to the sophisticated and growing practice area.

“We’re thrilled to have Alexis join our national health care litigation team and also have her as part of our growing Dallas office,” said Alexander. “We look for sharp, energized attorneys who can integrate into our culture as well as understand our clients’ business. We think Alexis is the right fit.”

Angell has relocated back to her home state after previously working at a firm in New York. With experience in developing complex civil recovery actions on behalf of insurance carriers regarding fraudulent billing practices and illegal corporate structure of health care providers, Angell said she looks forward to shifting her efforts to focus on health care litigation at Polsinelli.

“I am excited about the opportunity to collaborate with Polsinelli’s distinguished team of health care litigation attorneys,” she said. “I look forward to being a part of a recognized and growing firm, particularly back in my home state of Texas.”

Dallas is one of the firm’s key cities which include Chicago, Denver, Los Angeles, Kansas City, New York, Phoenix, St. Louis and Washington, D.C. The American Lawyer Magazine featured Polsinelli in its June 2013 issue and recognized it as the fastest-growing law firm in America over the past five years. This year, the firm moved up to the 69th position from 78th in The National Law Journal’s ranking of the largest U.S. based law firms.

Angell received her law degree from the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law in 2010, and her B.B.A. degree in 2007 from the University of Texas-Austin. She is a member of the State Bar of Texas, New York and New Jersey.
