Separation and Child Support

I was represented by Mark Goldstein for a Separation & Child support case in New Jersey. From our first conversation, I got a good vibe from him. He was very responsive to my questions and concerns about what to expect as we go through this difficult process. He Always returned my calls even after o...ffice hours. I was always kept informed of all actions and progress through phone calls, e-mails & Text. He was extremely professional and has an enormous amount of knowledge about both of my issues. I am very please that Mr. Goldstein was representing me. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a good attorney.

Temporary restraining order - DV

I am a professional working in healthcare. I called Mark searching for help starting out as a plaintiff in a case. This was my first rodeo being involved in such a matter so I wanted to seek out his advice and expertise. On my way over i had received a message that a cross temporary restraining order... was filed against me. I couldn't believe it. Mark helped me calm my nerves a bit. Mark is very down to earth and knowledgable about the law. He is very organized and efficient in his work and he knows the system. Mark and I spoke on numerous occasions and he proved to be smart, honest, professional, motivated and just an overall hard working individual. A gentleman by the name of Steven was also very helpful. He is a lawyer as well. They made me feel comfortable all the way through my case and when I had questions Mark and Steven were there to assist. I couldn't have gone through this case alone and I would recommend Mark to help give direction and guidance throughout the process. I would suggest meeting with Mark for a consultation to get an idea of how dedicated he is to his work and how down to earth people at his firm are. They will work with you. If you have any concerns just ask them and they will address it. I truly appreciate your help guys. Thank goodness it's over but thanks again for the assistance!!

PRAISEWORTHY AWESOME ATTORNEY

If you are seeking a divorce attorney who is a compassionate human being with praiseworthy perseverance and ambition then Mark Goldstein is the lawyer for you! I retained Mark back in Nov. 2014 after interviewing several other attorneys and I actually retained another attorney who took my money but ...not my best interest. My soon to be ex-husband emptied our bank accounts and left me virtually penniless after 30 years of marriage. The day after I met Mark, we were in the courtroom obtaining support for me! My divorce is complicated but not for Mark Goldstein. From the sweet receptionist Deana, to the awesome paralegal JoAnn to the (super!) Jr. lawyer Steven, there is an ENTIRE TEAM on your side who actually work for your money, best interest and success of you divorce. There is NO dragging the feet with Mark Goldstein. He is one amazing, seasoned divorce attorney!

mark goldstein is an awesome divorce lawyer

I went to Mark because my ex-wife filed a bogus motion for primary. mark went right to work by immediately firing a letter to my ex-wife's attorney (Weinberger law group) and clearly stating their claim had no merit and was totally bogus. then he arranged a 4 way sit-down meeting where he made it c...lear to my ex-wife that she has absolutely no evidence whatsoever to support any of her claims. then he had my children meet the judge which further supported that my ex-wife was making up every one of her allegations. my ex-wife and her attorney backed down and custody remained exactly the same! great job by Mark and attorney Julie Katz as well.

Skip this one and go to the next attorney

If your main objective in having someone represent you is relieving yourself of thousands of dollars, and getting no results, no explanations, and never receiving a return call, then this is the right firm for you. Now if you really want to punish yourself, pay a few dollars less and have the firm's ...associates represent you. They can barely speak when it comes to representation, but they suddenly become wordsmiths when it comes time for billing.

"I have known Mark for several years, and I gladly endorse him. We were bitter adversaries in a very difficult divorce matter. Mark was extremely knowledgeable about the issues presented in the case, and fought very aggressively for his client. I recommend him fully for any person who feels downtrodden and needs a strong voice."
