Danielle Vrabie defends healthcare and life sciences organizations when government investigations and high-stakes commercial disputes threaten their operations. A seasoned litigator grounded in a deep understanding of how her clients operate and what drives their business, she serves as litigation and enforcement lead for the firm’s Healthcare industry team and co-lead of its False Claims Act team.
Her clients—hospitals and health systems, specialty practice groups, managed care organizations, pharmaceutical and medical device companies, skilled nursing facilities and long-term care providers—rely on her to defend allegations under the False Claims Act and related fraud-and-abuse statutes and to advocate in commercial disputes across state and federal courts and arbitral forums.
On the enforcement side, Danielle conducts internal investigations, navigates whistleblower allegations and defends government inquiries—securing declinations, dismissals and negotiated resolutions. Her deep familiarity with the enforcement landscape allows her to anticipate theories and craft strategies that drive practical outcomes.
Danielle's commercial litigation practice is equally central to her work. She represents clients in healthcare and other highly regulated industries in complex disputes—whether involving allegations of fraud, commercial tort and statutory claims, trade secret and restrictive covenant matters, or class actions.
Across both dimensions of her practice, Danielle draws on an interdisciplinary perspective developed through years of working alongside regulatory, compliance and transactional teams—resolving disputes while safeguarding ongoing operations and long-term business objectives.
A recognized leader, she co-founded the firm’s Women in Healthcare Leadership Collaborative, driving programming and community-building at the intersection of legal, regulatory and innovation issues shaping healthcare's future.
