Josh Belinfante previously served as the Executive Counsel to Governor Sonny Perdue. He has also served as the Legal Counsel to the Georgia House of Representatives Committee on the Judiciary (2006), and as the campaign counsel and policy advisor to Perdue for Senate (2013-2014), United States Senator David Perdue’s campaign.
Josh has also worked with various interest groups and clients since leaving the Governor’s Office in 2009. He has developed particular expertise in the areas of health care and gaming, and he has written language that has become law in almost every legislative session since 2006.
Throughout his time at the State Capitol, Josh has not avoided lengthy and complex legislation. In fact, he prefers it. He has played significant roles in rewriting Georgia’s laws governing gaming, certificates of need, non-compete agreements, Medicaid appeals, and eminent domain.
Josh has also drafted amendments to existing law that have altered the Administrative Procedure Act, the Civil Practice Act, the Pharmacy Practice Act, the Criminal Code, laws governing professions, the Medical Practice Act, and others.
Finally, Josh’s experience as one of Georgia’s most experienced litigators on issues of statutory construction, government law, and procurement. Knowing how Georgia’s courts will likely interpret statutory language is critical to his experience as a drafter, and he has successfully defended challenged laws and defeated others. He has also advised clients seeking to do business with the state on the front end: working with agencies to be sure that proposed procurements allow clients to compete fairly and successfully.
Josh is an active member of the Federalist Society, the Lumpkin Inn of Court, the Georgia Republican Party Foundation, and various campaigns.
