Why Choose Bricker Graydon LLP?

Bricker Graydon is Columbus's go-to firm for public-sector legal work — school districts, municipalities, port authorities, public hospitals — alongside a strong private-sector business and healthcare practice. The firm's depth in Ohio public finance, public records and open meetings, education law, and bond work is unusually strong. Healthcare clients (hospital systems, physician groups, long-term care) benefit from a dedicated regulatory and transactional bench. Best fit if you're a public-sector institution, healthcare provider, energy company, or financial-services firm needing Ohio-savvy counsel without Big-Law-coast rates.

FAQ

Common Questions About This Firm

Does Bricker Graydon represent only public-sector clients?
No. The firm has a substantial private-sector practice including healthcare systems, energy companies, financial-services firms, manufacturers, and growing businesses. The public-sector practice (schools, municipalities, public agencies) is one of its strongest specialties but represents only part of overall work.
What does the firm's healthcare practice cover?
Almost everything healthcare law touches: hospital and health-system M&A, physician group affiliations, Stark/AKS compliance, Medicare/Medicaid reimbursement, OIG self-disclosures, FDA matters, certificate of need, joint ventures, and litigation. The firm represents both providers and payors.
Does the firm handle individual matters?
Estate planning, probate, and select employment matters yes; consumer cases, criminal defense, divorce, and personal injury — no. For those, the firm refers to specialty boutiques like Joslyn (criminal), Friedmann (employee-side employment), or Plevin & Gallucci (PI).
What's the rate structure?
Hourly with engagement letter. Rates run $425–$725 for partners depending on practice and seniority. The firm uses some flat-fee work for public-sector clients (bond opinions, levy work) and is generally more cost-flexible than coastal Big Law.
Where is the Columbus office?
100 South Third Street, Columbus, OH 43215 — at the southeast corner of State and Third in downtown. Phone (614) 227-2300. The firm also has offices in Cincinnati, Cleveland, Dayton, Marietta, Toledo, and beyond — including Indianapolis, Louisville, and Frankfort following recent mergers.
