NASHVILLE, TN--(Marketwired - Jul 17, 2014) - Waller was ranked the nation's fifth largest healthcare law firm by Modern Healthcare in the publication's June 30, 2014 issue. Waller was ranked the ninth largest U.S. healthcare firm in 2013 by Modern Healthcare and has consistently been among the country's ten largest healthcare law firms since 2005.

"With nearly 50 years of experience in the industry, Waller has become synonymous with healthcare law, and that's a commitment we keep with our clients," said Ken Marlow, chair of Waller's Healthcare Department. "In the last 18 months we've grown our healthcare regulatory and compliance team by nearly two-thirds, and earlier this year we opened a new office in Memphis that expanded our depth and experience in the pharmaceutical and medical device sectors. As the needs of our clients evolve, we are constantly adding talented and experienced attorneys in our four offices across the country."

Waller was also recently recognized as the top-ranked law firm in the South for attorney membership in the American Bar Association's Health Law Section.
