Gordian Medical, dba American Medical Technologies
The firm represented this leading provider of wound-care solutions for long-term care facilities in the United States in its successful reorganization under chapter 11. Gordian was involved in litigation involving difficult factual issues and regulatory and statutory arguments against (and negotiations with) various agencies of the U.S. government and the State of California, as well as litigation with numerous third parties over claims and pending contracts. Through the firm’s efforts, the federal Centers for Medicare & Medicare Services's froze of tens of millions of dollars of payments to the company was lifted; settlements were reached with CMS, the IRS and California’s Franchise Tax Board; and a plan of reorganization was confirmed, allowing Gordian to emerge from bankruptcy protection.
