Steinberg Quoted on Post-Dobbs Creation of AFS Reproductive Health Task Force

The American Lawyer

Partner Jill Steinberg spoke with The American Lawyer about ArentFox Schiff’s new Reproductive Health Task Force and the legal challenges that were created when the US Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade.

The AFS Reproductive Health Task Force is a multi-disciplinary team that advises clients on a variety of issues, particularly employers and health care providers on various policies and plans, including ERISA plans, HIPAA policies, and related tax issues.
