LOS ANGELES, Nov. 3, 2022 — King & Spalding healthcare partner Daron Tooch has been named one of 2022’s Top Healthcare Lawyers in California by the Daily Journal.

Tooch specializes in managed care litigation and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for healthcare providers in civil actions and arbitrations against health plans. He represents hospitals, medical groups, physicians, pharmacies, laboratories, surgery centers, and home health companies in arbitrations in federal and state courts. With decades of trial experience, Tooch has tried over 100 cases before juries, judges and arbitrators in federal, state and administrative courts.
