Mr. Breen is Chair of the firm’s National Health Care and Life Sciences Practice Steering Committee and serves on the firm’s Board of Directors. He is a Member of the Firm in the Health Care and Life Sciences and Litigation practices in the Washington, D.C., office.
Mr. Breen’s practice focuses on the defense of clients in False Claims Act cases and investigations conducted by the U.S. Department of Justice, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ Office of the Inspector General, and other state and federal governmental authorities. He regularly advises clients on, and litigates, complex commercial and administrative matters (including challenges to regulatory actions) and disputes under government contracts.

In addition, Mr. Breen is Chair of the American Health Lawyers Association’s Health Care Liability and Litigation Practice Group. He is a former President of the District of Columbia Defense Lawyers Association.
“It is an honor to be recognized by such a prestigious organization,” said Mr. Breen. “This fellowship is made even more meaningful because of the rigorously selective nomination process.”

Fellowship in the LCA is highly selective and by invitation only. Fellows are selected based upon excellence and accomplishment in litigation, both at the trial and appellate levels, and superior ethical reputation.
