Highly Recommend - Personable, Caring & Knowledgeable

Eric went above and beyond to help with my situation, which I am very appreciative of. Throughout the process, he educated me on everything I needed to know so I was prepared at every step of the way. Eric always came well prepared and it showed every time. He is attentive, timely, professional and m...ost importantly personable. With his expertise and knowledge, I was able to land with my preferred outcome. I would 100% recommend Eric to friends & family if they are ever in need, can't recommend him enough!!!

Highly recommend! Extremely professional and a wealth of knowledge

It was an absolute pleasure working with Mr. Goldsmith. I cannot stress enough the ease of working with him and the abundance of knowledge he communicated during our interactions. He was professional, detailed and always well prepared. It is clear he has been doing this for years. If a friend or fami...ly is in need, I will 100% be sending them to Mr. Goldsmith… Highly recommend giving him a call on his expertise.

Eric Goldsmith the best

Was introduced to Eric Goldsmith by a dear, close and valued friend during the course of preparing to sell my home. Immediately I thought cautiously about engaging his legal services to assist me in the sale of my home despite the source of the recommendation but ultimately chose to proceed by e...ngaging Eric . Selling my home after 30 years was a traumatic experience for me and as it turned out the best and most important thing I did was “ERIC”. Not only was he a great attorney with tremendous knowledge and professionalism, but he adapted to my personality and was strong when I needed strength while being compassionate and understanding of my nervousness. He assisted me and held my hand through the entire process, was always available by phone or in person and knew how to listen and explain things in the most understandable way. He also assisted me a variety of ways with all the peripheral moving challenges which was a great benefit to me in easing the process. Not only was engaging Eric’s professional services during this process one of the best things I did, it almost made the stress of my house selling experience enjoyable thanks to him. Can’t recommend him STRONGLY ENOUGH. .GREAT KNOWLEDGEABLE ATTORNEY WITH A GREAT BED SIDE MANNER. TRULY ONE OF A KIND.. THE BEST.. Debbie. F

Highly recommended

I was facing several thousand dollars in fines and suspension of my drivers license. Mr. Goldsmith has a true understanding of the traffic laws of New York State and was able to keep me driving and severely reduce the amount of fines that I was facing. From my experience, I found that he is efficie...nt and very well prepared. I would definitely recommend him .

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.
