Goodwin

About

We are a global law firm that has been helping innovators and investors achieve great things for over a century. Our story began back in 1912, when our founders, Robert Goodwin and Joseph Procter, Jr., had a chance encounter on a Boston sidewalk and decided to start their own law practice. From that simple beginning, we have grown into an international firm with more than 1,800 lawyers across the United States, Europe, and Asia. Our purpose has always been to partner with our clients to practice law with integrity, ingenuity, agility, and ambition. We are in the business of building authentic, long-term relationships with the world's most successful and innovative disruptors. Our firm is uniquely positioned at the intersection of capital and innovation. We focus on the key industries that are shaping the future: technology, life sciences, private equity, real estate, and financial services. This deep industry focus, combined with our world-class legal expertise in high-stakes litigation, complex transactions, and regulatory matters, truly sets us apart. We don't just provide legal advice; we immerse ourselves in our clients' worlds to understand their challenges and opportunities. Our Global Operations Team, composed of dedicated business professionals, partners seamlessly with our lawyers to deliver a differentiated and holistic client service model. We foster a culture of collaboration and inclusion, recognizing that our success stems from the collective talents and diverse perspectives of every individual on our team. Whether advising a startup on its initial financing or guiding a multinational corporation through a landmark M&A deal, we are committed to delivering exceptional outcomes and helping our clients navigate the complexities of a rapidly changing, technology-driven economy.
