Forzley & Associates

Forzley & Associates is a global public health legal and consulting firm specializing in access to medicines and health sector reform. We serve ministries of health, medicines regulatory agencies, UN agencies, NGOs, donors and the private sector. We recognize that law is an essential tool underutilized to achieve development objectives in the health sector and those sectors that impact human, animal and plant health. Our uniquely qualified team makes F&A the leading experts in health development law by providing tailored legal solutions and tested advisory services to emerging and long standing global health challenges. We believe that a key to transforming a health system is a sound, resilient legal architecture for health and medicines regulation. Regulatory reform is a key driver for change and legal architecture must be crafted by professionals with the ability to plan for the future development of the system and integrate known best practices. F&A is in a unique position to help align function and structure to the law and vice-versa to support sustainable regulatory effectiveness and the delivery of health services and medical products and technologies. Our mission is to provide customized legal advisory services in the field of global public health in the context of developing countries. By balancing research and theory, we exemplify the critical thinking and problem solving skills of practitioner scholars. We have acted in this capacity for public and private sector clients who are international, national and regional governmental and non-governmental organizations in AFRO, SEARO, WPRO, EMRO and EURO countries. We have worked in diverse settings including emerging economies, fragile, and conflict and post-conflict states. For each assignment, we simplify and operationalize the law, situating it as the cornerstone of every strong health system. We understand that this is necessary to achieving health sector goals according to policy objectives.
