Michael (“Mike”) Elkins is a senior attorney at Boesen & Snow Law. Prior to joining Boesen & Snow, Mike was an associate attorney with Quarles & Brady’s Health Law Group, serving as the group’s only Florida-based health care regulatory attorney. Before that, Mike was a civil defense litigator with Wicker Smith, where the bulk of his practice involved defending Fortune-ranked pharmacy chains against claims for pharmacy professional negligence.

With over a decade of experience, Mike advises a variety of clients in the health care industry, including multiple types of pharmacies, drug and device distributors and manufacturers, physicians, and other individual corporate health care service providers.

Mike’s experience includes analyses of state and federal laws and regulations specific to health care clients’ operations and compliance. He also provides risk assessments and recommendations to pharmacies, drug and device wholesale distributors, third-party logistics providers and reverse distributors in matters including licensing and permitting, controlled substances, reporting obligations, shipping, and drug destruction. Mike also assists and advises health care entities attempting to leverage new and existing technology to improve patient care, including automated pharmacy systems and telehealth.

Mike’s philosophy has always been that there are no shortcuts in life, but you should anticipate what’s around the corner. He brings this same philosophy to his work, offering clients practical advice and creative solutions.

Outside of work, Mike loves spending time with his wife, their two miniature schnauzers, and hiking in foreign countries.
