Jane Arnold has helped to lead health care entities through more than $1 billion in transactions during her nearly 30-year legal career.

Arnold has similarly led numerous health care technology and business services acquisitions for private equity funds.

Arnold’s practice also includes advising both public and private companies on strategic initiatives and operational matters; helping providers, suppliers and drug and device manufacturers with regulatory compliance; and defending pharmacies and pharmacists on licensure matters.

Arnold serves as both chair of Polsinelli’s health care alignment and organization practice and managing partner of the firm’s St. Louis office.

Arnold earned her law degree in 1993 from Washington University in St. Louis.
