About Sanket Mistry

How would I know if I like something if I don’t try first?” – this mindset has shaped my professional and personal journey. I embrace new challenges and figure things out, which has driven my success. While I have not done everything alone, I have built confidence by relying on common sense, adaptability, and emotional intelligence to tackle complex problems—both in life and in the law. My legal philosophy is to make the law make sense and simply the complex. Whether negotiating SaaS contracts, structuring DPAs, or ensuring compliance with evolving regulations, I deliver clear, practical solutions that align legal requirements with business goals. I ensure legal counsel enables innovation rather than hindering it, taking a collaborative, strategic approach to problem-solving. I also choose two words instead of three wherever possible. I have worked across industries, built strong relationships, and driven impactful change. At Northwell Health, I navigated complex healthcare and technology agreements, ensuring compliance while supporting innovation. At the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of New York (NDNY), I analyzed complex federal cases and sharpened my legal reasoning. At the Office of Medicare Hearings and Appeals (OMHA) at the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services (HHS), I drafted Medicare appeal decisions that impacted healthcare providers and beneficiaries and shaped national healthcare policy. These experiences allow me to approach legal challenges with strategy, focus, and forward thinking. I help companies scale, adapt, and succeed in an evolving legal and regulatory landscape. Let’s connect to discuss how I can add value to your team.
