Sports & Entertainment

Hall & Gooden LLP provides a full-service approach to individuals and businesses within the sports and entertainment industries.  We offer representation of athletes and entertainers, public and private colleges and universities, professional and amateur sports organizations, sports and entertainment event promoters, physical therapy, athletic training and sports performance companies, orthopedics groups, music production companies, independent record labels, and other sports and entertainment-related businesses. 

Our sports and entertainment practice is led by Tiffany L. Gooden, a partner at the firm who is more than casually familiar with the sports and entertainment industries.  She previously co-founded and co-chaired the 50+ member sports and entertainment practice group at her prior firm consisting of over 400 attorneys throughout seven offices located in Indiana, Chicago, Michigan, and Washington, D.C.  Now, at Hall & Gooden LLP, Tiffany can draw upon her large firm experience and key leadership role while providing more individualized attention to client needs and relationship building in the sports and entertainment industries. As a former professional basketball player, Big Ten Champion, Big-Ten Freshman of the Year, Naismith and Parade Magazine National High School Player of the Year, and Indiana Miss Basketball, she has first-hand knowledge regarding the powerful impact of sports on the lives of student-athletes, professional athletes, coaches, fans, communities, universities, professional league officials, team owners, and sponsors.  More importantly, she understands the significance of combining strong legal and business acumen with the experience and training to put the right team on the field to handle issues that arise in the sports and entertainment industries.
