BRIAN GOLDENFARB THE EMPOWERING ATTORNEY
Thank So Very Much From The Bottom Of My Heart Brian! You are truly a Godsend! Going to court against my ex for domestic violence was scary until You, Brian took on my case. You were so very understanding, professional, caring and thorough. Your attention to the special details of my case gave me the feeling that I really had someone on my side fighting for my best interest. You presented everything in a manner that is honest and covered all the possibilities. You walked me through every step and explained everything to me clearly. I felt EMPOWERED and in control of my situation. You even made sure that my case was handled with my unique situation in mind not like just another client. That meant so much to me, since I was dealing with a sensitive and emotionally painful matter of domestic violence. I highly recommend You Brian Goldenfarb to any woman or man who needs a considerate attorney that even calls you on a Sunday if you have questions! I cannot stress enough how amazing Brian is and how he EMPOWERED Me to take control of my situation. I am beyond happy with the results Brian got for me in court!!! THANK YOU BRIAN, THE EMPOWERING ATTORNEY!!!

Very thorough
I was facing a dui and 3 other tickets and had no experience dealing with these types of things. I called a few attorneys and chose Brian. I’m glad I did. I could call and email him anytime and he would always be available for any questions I had and what I could expect. Brian worked hard for me and I got the best results I could’ve hoped for. Brian isn’t a salesman who promises things just so you hire him. He is honest and will do everything in his power to get you the best outcome he can. It was nice to know that someone has your back and is working hard for you as if he was the one with the problems.

Saved from license suspension, high fines and many license points
After an accident I was facing multiple citations and could have had my license revoked for a year. I also had other citations that I hadn't taken care of, and a warrant for missing the original court date for those. Brian completely untangled my mess and got rid of my problems as if they were nothing. He had most of the citations dismissed, and I ended up with 2 points when I could have had 14+ points or more. I was actually shocked by how easily he got the agreement to have them dismissed. He has very good relationships with the prosecutors in the courts and works well with them. They have a good working relationship and familiarity. I was also very scared in court and Brian helped me to feel at ease, and wasn't judgmental of me despite my legal mess. If anyone I know get into a motor vehicle incident and gets citations I will definitely recommend they call Brian first.

Highly recommend
Mr Goldenfarb represented me for a traffic citation. Very professional and kept me informed . Got a better result than expected, and did it very quickly. Very pleased.

Fantastic
When I chose to use representation for a speeding ticket, Brian informed me we'd have to reschedule my court appearance. This was fine, until I learned of a last minute, out-of-state trip I'd have to attend. I was concerned this trip would interfere with my new court appearance, the date of which hadn't been set yet, so I phoned Brian at his office. (He is always available to take calls). He said he'd do his best to find out about the new date. Not only did he call me back within 15 minutes (he completely dropped what he'd been doing to call the municipal court for me), but he had good news. The new date did not interfere with my trip. Brian added that if the new date was inconvenient, he would've tried to make my original, pre-attorney court date work so he could be there for me. He's just wonderful. I'd recommend him to anyone.

Highly Recommended - Amazing Lawyer
Great lawyer! I highly recommend Brian Goldenfarb-service was exceptional! Brian handled a traffic case for me recently and was extremely professional, committed, and very knowledgeable. He delivered on his promise and reduced an enormous fine to a very nominal fee. His staff was very professional and polite. I was completely satisfied and would recommend him to anyone! I appreciate how he kept me well informed and followed through with me every step of the way. In my opinion, he went above and beyond and I am truly grateful! Thanks Brian!

Took my money and have done nothing!
Took my payment and did nothing to help. Left him multiple messages. He never returned my calls, Avoid him!!
Response from Brian Goldenfarb September 16, 2020
Do not even know who you are. When I am not in my office, calls get forwarded directly to my cell phone. So saying that you left messages for me that were not returned, is not accurate. Also, you said that I did nothing to help you. Please tell me what the supposed outcome was. Sounds like you may have left the review for the wrong person. If you have an issue with anything, I invite you to call me any time at (732) 321-9100 to discuss. Otherwise, you should delete this inaccurate review. People that leave legit reviews usually do not do so anonymous. If you have an issue, call me.
