Lash & Goldberg

What Lash & Goldberg does

Lash & Goldberg (legally Lash Goldberg Fineberg LLP) is a Florida-based litigation boutique founded in 1996 and headquartered in Miami, with additional offices in Fort Lauderdale and Tampa. The firm provides sophisticated litigation and dispute resolution services across twelve practice areas, with core strengths in complex commercial litigation, healthcare litigation, class action defense, government investigations, False Claims Act defense, and white-collar criminal defense. Its client base consists primarily of corporate counsel, executives, and professionals, with particular concentration in healthcare (national health systems, hospitals, and publicly traded health insurers) and Fortune 100/500 companies across financial services, retail, and other regulated industries.

The firm's competitive position rests on the credentials and experience of its attorney roster, which includes former federal prosecutors (notably John W. Black, who led DOJ investigations yielding over $4 billion in recoveries), alumni of AmLaw firms including Weil Gotshal & Manges and Greenberg Traurig, and attorneys trained at elite institutions such as Columbia, University of Chicago, Cornell, and the University of Florida. Notable case outcomes include a $62.65 million jury verdict in the TeamHealth v. United Healthcare matter in 2021, $3.5 billion in FIRREA settlements, and a summary judgment victory in a $500 million breach of contract claim. The firm has earned third-party recognition including Law360's 2018 Health Care Practice Group of the Year (one of five nationwide), Chambers & Partners USA rankings in Healthcare Law, and sustained Best Lawyers in America listings for its founding partners.

The business model is a traditional professional services structure: revenue is generated through hourly and case-based legal fees negotiated on a matter-by-matter basis, with no disclosed technology platform or alternative pricing. The firm markets primarily through thought leadership (firm blog, press releases covered by legal publications such as Law360, Daily Business Review, and Becker's Hospital Review), peer-reviewed rankings, and referral networks. Client engagement is direct and enterprise-focused, with no disclosed API, software product, or channel partnerships beyond co-counsel arrangements on individual matters.
