Goodman Allen & Filetti, PLLC

With offices in Richmond, Norfolk and Charlottesville, our team of attorneys draw upon their tremendous depth, strength, and experience while providing personal, one-on-one service to each and every client regardless of size. To accomplish this, Goodman Allen & Filetti is organized according to practice areas and client needs.

Our health care attorneys provide representation and counsel to health care providers, in medical malpractice claims, before state and federal regulatory agencies, related to hospital credentialing and privileging, and in corporate business matters. In addition and complementary to our health care practice, we offer a full range of legal services, including commercial, contractual and transactional services, tax and pension consultation, employer-employee relations and patent, patent litigation and intellectual property services, just to name a few.

We are trial lawyers. We believe that attorneys who have spent countless hours inside the courtroom can best position their clients for success outside the courtroom. While our attorneys work diligently with their clients in risk avoidance, our expertise and willingness to litigate in federal and state court and appear before federal and state government agencies is the critical component of our ability to provide our clients with the full service, quality legal counsel they need in today's litigious and complex environment. The attorneys at Goodman Allen & Filetti have an outstanding record of successfully, and cost-effectively, resolving business and commercial disputes both in Virginia and nationwide. Goodman Allen & Filetti attorneys have substantial experience defending manufacturers and distributors in cases alleging personal injuries from defective products. We have represented thousands of health care providers throughout Virginia. Our success in the courtroom is based not only on the many years of experience we have with presenting product and medical issues to juries, but in our results.

Goodman Allen & Filetti also has expertise in developing and protecting client's business interests, intellectual property and assets through corporate planning and the provision of other transactional services. Our business corporate attorneys provide comprehensive legal services to physician practices in their efforts to meet the regulatory guidelines of the OIG small physician practice compliance and Federal HIPAA regulations.

Our Intellectual Property attorneys provide a wide range of litigation services, acting both proactively, by pursuing action against infringers, and reactively, by defending our clients against accusations of infringement and improper trademark, servicemark and trade name use.

We also provide copyright litigation services which serve to protect various clients' works of authorship and design.
