Fantastic & Professional Lawyer

After Several court Appearances the matter wound up going to trial. I was reluctant what would happen at trial , However Mr. Goldsmith came ...through with flying colors and I am happy to say I won in the end. Mr. Goldsmith knows what he is doing and I Guarantee you we are happy with his representation as well as the winning outcome of our matter. I can Wholeheartedly recommend Mr. Goldsmith to represent you. Thank you again sir for your professionalism and patience with my case.

Call Eric!

I've consulted with Eric on numerous occasions regarding several different matters, and I've been impressed by him every time. He takes an aggressive but professional approach that will make you feel very confident that your case is in good hands. It's obvious that he is a skilled negotiator and is... always working to put together a deal or work on the next step of your case. And from seeing him in action I can tell you that he doesn't just take cases in all of the areas of practice it says here - it's obvious that he is knowledgeable, competent, and experienced in all of them. As a person, he's a stand-up guy who will do the right thing by you - and as a lawyer, he's the advocate you want on your side if you need help with any legal work. Call him and you won't be disappointed in the results.

Excellent attorney- very knowledgeable and caring of clients

I sold someone a used car and had the buyer try to sue me for damages to the car. I hired Mr. Goldsmith to represent me in this case. He was very prudent, analyzed all the documents I had, looked at even the smallest of details in this case. He was able to prove I did nothing wrong, and even caught t...he buyer lying on multiple occasions. A very detailed person, and someone I would definitely hire again. Thanks Eric...

Good Attorney All Around

I was referred to him by a mutual friend and needed a closing done quickly and did not have time to shop around for an attorney. Eric was very personable and returned my calls promptly (something I was really happy about) and the closing went off without incident in a timely manner.

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.
