About Andrew C.
Andrew C. Goodwin earned his undergraduate degree from the University of Florida in 2008 and completed his J.D. at Harvard Law School in 2015. His academic path put him on a steady trajectory into both private practice and in-house roles. The combination of a large law school education and an early start in corporate legal settings informed his approach to transactional and organizational problems.
He began his legal career as an associate at BakerHostetler in 2015, joining a national firm known for handling complex business matters. In 2016 he moved into a hybrid legal and business role as Director, Legal and Business at VSN. That position expanded his exposure to operational and compliance issues within a corporate setting. In 2018 he joined the Cleveland Clinic as Associate Counsel, a role that involved the legal work of a major health system.
Goodwin returned to private practice leadership in 2021 when he became principal lawyer at Rhodium Law, LLC. Each move added a different dimension: law firm training on transactional and advisory work, in-house direction of legal and business strategy, and the healthcare system perspective from his time at Cleveland Clinic. He is admitted to practice in Ohio and has worked on matters that intersect business operations and regulated industries.
Colleagues describe his style as pragmatic. He breaks complicated problems into discrete steps and prioritizes clear options for clients. That approach suits both deal work and ongoing compliance needs. His background gives him familiarity with contract negotiation, corporate governance, and policy issues that often arise inside institutions and growing companies.
At Rhodium Law, LLC he leads a small practice that draws on his cross-sector experience. He divides his time between counseling businesses and addressing legal issues for organizations in regulated spaces. He maintains an active role in matters that bridge business operations and healthcare-related legal concerns.
He continues to practice from his Ohio office and manages matters that range from corporate transactions to regulatory and compliance questions. His current practice concentrates on business and healthcare-related legal matters at Rhodium Law, LLC.
