Outstanding Lawyer

I had the pleasure to have Aaron assist in representing me in a very difficult case. He always kept me informed. He is very understanding and I would recommend him to anyone.

Excellent Choice!

Shortly after we retained Aaron as our attorney we recognized what a terrific decision we made. He has the "fire in his belly" that it takes to make a truly remarkable attorney. He was incredibly resourceful, has a wealth of contacts, and knows the law like the back of his hand. Aaron has work...ed for us a couple of times already, has gotten us out of a pinch, and has provided strong counsel. All this, plus he was financially savvy and worth every penny. I strongly recommend Aaron, whether you need civil or criminal counsel.

Professional Advocate

Aaron recently handled a matter for my organization. He adeptly navigated the system on our behalf and helped us achieve a good result in a manageable timeframe. Aaron was very professional in our dealings with him. He gave us confidence that the matter was being handled appropriately and by someo...ne who would be our advocate in all aspects. His rate was fair and reasonable given the nature of the case. I highly recommend Aaron Goldsmith for your next matter.

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.
