Janet L. Pulliam has thirty years of experience in the areas of labor and employment law, health law, commercial litigation, and education law. While she often appears in cases in the state courts of Arkansas, most of her litigation experience has been in the federal district and appellate courts.. She is a member of the peer-selected American Board of Trial Advocates and is listed in Best Lawyers in America under Labor and Employment Law; in Chambers USA as a "Leader" in the field of Labor & Employment; and in Mid-South Super Lawyers in the areas of Health Care, Employment Litigation: Defense and Business Litigation.. She regularly advises and litigates in areas affecting public policy. Presently, her concentration is in the health law industry. She was selected by Super Lawyers as one of the most outstanding attorneys in the Mid-South in the area of Health Care Law for 2008-2011. Janet provides a range of services to health care providers, assisting them with employment issues, commercial disputes, governmental claims, civil and criminal investigations, and peer review.. Janet also serves as general counsel for the Little Rock Cardiology Clinic, where she is involved in general advice and litigation in emerging health care issues, including specialty hospitals, physician ownership and referral, economic credentialing, pay for performance, and antitrust. She served on the Institutional Review Board of Arkansas Heart Hospital from its inception in 1996 to 2007.. Recently, she was lead counsel securing significant victory for Mississippi County hospitals. On June 1, 2011, Judge Brian Miller of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas ruled in favor of the local community hospitals and found as a matter of law that the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services' (CMS) interest in Medicare overpayment has priority over a lender's (First Tennessee Bank) security interest in receivables. While not binding, this opinion provides clarity to rural hospital systems across the country regarding Medicare overpayment disputes. Judge Miller ruled: "Although First Tennessee has a valid security interest in (certain) accounts, that interest does not attach until CMS audits and finalizes payments after each fiscal year." Farmers v. Ameris, et. al. No. 3:10CV00173-BSM(E.D.).. From 2004-2008, Janet acted as lead trial counsel in Murphy et al. v. Baptist Health; Pulaski County Circuit Court No. CV 2004-2002. In Murphy, et al., a group of cardiologists she represents, prevailed in obtaining a preliminary injunction against the enforcement of Baptist Hospital's economic credentialing policy. The preliminary injunction was sustained by the Arkansas Supreme Court. Baptist Health v. Murphy, 365 Ark. 115, 226 S.W.3d 800 (2006). Subsequently, a final judgment was entered for the Murphy plaintiffs, granting a permanent injunction. Or. Granting Murphy Pl.’s Mot. Perm. Inj. (Feb. 27, 2009), Murphy, et al v.

LEXIS 458, September 30, 2010, Opinion Delivered. She was also involved in litigation involving the Patient Protection Act (Any Willing Provider Law) St. Vincent Infirmary Medical Center, et al. v.

Pulaski County Special School District, 738 F.2d 82 (8th Cir. 1984), 778 F.2d 404 (en banc), cert. denied, 106 S. Ct. 2926 (1986)..

In 1994, she successfully represented a class of hearing-impaired persons in obtaining a ruling that the state statute barring hearing-impaired individuals from jury service was in violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act. After class certification, the State admitted liability, and the case was resolved by consent decree. Quinn v. Bogard, No. 93-CV-552 (E.D. Ark. 1993)..

Practice Areas: Education

I grew up in a working-class family in a rural town in East Texas. My parents instilled in me the same small-town values that many of my clients hold today. In that same East Texas town, I also learned the value of hard work. As a first-generation college graduate, I’ve worked hard to get to where I am today.. I’m a product of public education, starting in kindergarten all the way through law school. I’m blessed to have had the opportunities I’ve had, and I want those same opportunities to be available to all children. I’m proud to have spent the first part of my career in public service, working hard to better educational opportunities for all children in Arkansas.. In my free time, you can often find me binge-watching reality TV or chasing after my toddler. My husband and I love spending time outdoors and have even ran a few marathons together. I ran my last marathon less than a year after my daughter was born. It was one of the hardest things, both physically and mentally, that I’ve ever done, and I still consider it one of my biggest personal accomplishments. Running a marathon takes dedication, hard work, and sacrifice, and these are the same qualities that I bring to my clients every day.
