Helpful and friendly!
Andrea took the time to chat with me when I (a new homeowner) was stressed about a contractor relationship gone sour. She gave me all the advice I needed to fully appreciate the options we had to remedy the situation. Very knowledgeable and very easy to talk to. She's definitely in my rolodex now!

Andrea Jill Goldman's Lawyer Endorsements
"I endorse this lawyer. Attorney Goldman is a dedicated professional, who works tirelessly on behalf of her clientele - she focuses on practical solutions to challenges, is down-to-earth and approachable."
"I recently had the opportunity to use Andrea as a mediator in a home improvement contractor v. owner case. She was fair, insightful, had a thorough understanding of the factual and legal issues, and earned the trust of the parties and counsel. She also has a way of using humor to get the parties to ease their tension, which was quite necessary in that case. I highly recommend as a mediator or arbitrator."
"I know Andrea though various legal network groups. After getting to know her through these groups, I've found that she not only has a deep understanding of the law but also genuinely cares for the work that she does and the clients that she works with. An attorney that has both great legal skills and personal skills, I would endorse Andrea's work and ability."
