Boston Magazine Names Four Troutman Pepper Attorneys to Inaugural Top Lawyers List

BOSTON – Four Troutman Pepper attorneys – Miranda Hooker, Alison McCarthy, Daniel Sieck, and Callan Stein – have been named to Boston Magazine’s inaugural Top Lawyers list showcasing the “region’s finest legal minds.”

Miranda Hooker, a former federal prosecutor and experienced trial attorney, was recognized in the Criminal Defense/White Collar category. She regularly defends clients in government investigations and enforcement matters, including those involving health care fraud and abuse matters, in addition to conducting internal corporate investigations. She has particular experience in matters involving the False Claims Act, Anti-Kickback Statute, HIPAA, and Stark Law.

Alison McCarthy was recognized on the Top Lawyers list for her work prosecuting patent applications in the high-tech arena, and more specifically for counseling clients on various aspects of intellectual property, including strategically growing clients’ portfolios. McCarthy routinely handles many aspects of patent validity challenges such as inter partes reviews, and frequently negotiates technology licenses. She also supports patent litigation tasks, from discovery disputes to claim construction briefing, and has been engaged in multiple hearings before the International Trade Commission. McCarthy manages patent portfolios for clients located in the U.S. and abroad, and has worked with a broad range of technologies.

Dan Sieck, who was recognized in the Corporate Law category, focuses his practice in the areas of mergers and acquisitions, venture capital, private equity, securities, technology law (including distributed ledger technology), and general corporate matters. He frequently represents public and private companies and equity funds in stock and asset acquisitions and dispositions, mergers, joint venture and strategic alliances.

Cal Stein, who was recognized in the Criminal Defense/White Collar category, has a broad litigation and investigation practice encompassing white collar criminal matters, corporate and commercial civil litigation, internal investigations, and health care litigation. He is experienced in representing health care providers, facilities, pharmacies (including compounding pharmacies), and other clients in the health care industry during criminal investigations and in civil enforcement actions.

In compiling its Top Lawyers guide, Boston Magazine invited lawyers in the area to nominate up to three of their peers in a select number of specialties. The top vote-getters in each specialty were then reviewed by an advisory board of distinguished lawyers who finalized the list.
