The Ultimate Personal Injury Lawyer that Delivers Results!!

I am 67 years old. I hurt my neck on a business property and needed a fusion to repair herniated discs. The insurance companies hired three attorneys who blamed me for the accident. It was very upsetting but Mr. Goodman kept me calm and patient. He then did an amazing job of showing the conditio...n was dangerous, they knew about it, and didn't fix it. After he cross-examined the defense doctor, the insurance companies' attorneys asked for a conference and we settled for $1 MILLION dollars. I highly recommend The Goodman firm.

Great Result

I am 77 years old and was involved in a car accident 3 years ago. I hurt my shoulder, back and hip. Allsate Insurance Company offered no money to settle my case. Mr. Goodman did an amazing job at trial and the jury awarded $450,000. He destroyed Allstate's doctor on cross-examination. If anyone... needs a lawyer, go to him. His staff was great also - very professional.

Great verdict!!

The jury rewarded three times what the insurance company offered to settle. I highly recommend this attorney. I was involved in a second accident and I came back to the same attorney.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
