Freddy Miguel Godoy Jr.

I consulted with several attorneys. Nonetheless, after my initial consultation with Freddy Godoy, Esq. I hired him because I knew he would be the best attorney for my family custody matter- and he was. It was a difficult and lengthy case. Freddy listened, was professional, honest, analytical, articul...ate and an EXCELLENT STRATEGIST. And yes, he won the case. Without hesitation, I highly recommend Freddy Godoy, Esq.

On january 15, 2019, I became a first time mother. That's when things went left, I found myself In a relationship with a man that hid his instability, smoked and sold weed around our baby, and allowed his alcoholic mom to drink and be around her. Not only did my baby and I have to endure that , we al...so had to endure the emotional abuse that followed it. So many times he threatened that if I left him he would take my baby away. He also belittled me about working under someone . He said "you can work for the white man all you want but I refuse to be a slave to the system ." Crazy but true , he believed in black magic and threaten to put a spell on my family. During the time we lived together I discovered messages saying he was being evicted . He hid everything from me. But once I found out I took myself and my baby and put us both in a steady home. In fear of him taking my baby away I applied for custody of her and sent it to the last known address I had of his. I tried to work out visitations but that didnt work his behavior became very aggressive . Especially if I didnt respond to messages that didnt involve our child. He was so fixated on us as a couple that my baby was just bait. Threats started to occur shortly after . He threaten to sue me, threaten to show up at my house with the cops, his sisters also wrote post about me and also kept writing me over and over . So that's when I said enough was enough . I couldn't sleep at night not knowing his next moves. So I hired Mr. Freddy and he addressed my ex and got him to calm down. He also got my ex to sign an agreement. My ex is a very hard guy to get to do something. Hes the type that thinks he knows everything and likes to have power so Mr. Freddy getting him to sign the custody agreement was magnificent. My ex tried to find ways around things , so he made up a lie about me wanting to kill my baby and myself. But with Mr. Freddy experience that was not looked upon . But this is just to show you how crazy my ex was. I didnt originally file for Child support but Mr. Freddy helped me with that . He seen that I wasnt getting any support with my child at all . So he did everything and submitted all the paperwork for custody and child support right away. My ex thought he could play the system by making it seem as if he made below SSR requirement . However, with Mr. Freddy fast thinking he asked for a grand masters hearing. Which ended up being the best decision ever. Because he knew that because my ex claimed below SSR requirement the support would be denied but masters hearing specializes in more than just paystub. They look at your capability to earn more . I won my case thanks to Mr. Freddy and I have recieved everything I wanted. Now I can sleep better at night knowing that I have a court order and my child will have a steady home with me . All in all hes an awesome lawyer I strongly recommend him. He keeps you inform on every decision and every move he makes , he allows you to have input . And also hes affordable . I couldn't ask for a better lawyer!

I hired Freddy for the first time back in 2011. He fought for everything I wanted in my custody matter. As a father a lot of my rights weren’t exactly being handed to me however Freddy made sure they were heard and given to me. He fought for my rights as a parent. Fast forward to 2019 I was fac...ed with a similar situation and I didn’t hesitate to contact him. These past few months have been stressful but Freddy has done everything to make sure the outcome is in my favor. He has answered every question and reassured me that every step I am taking is in the right direction. Whether me or my wife had a question on a Sunday night or early Thursday morning Freddy has always been there with answers. You will feel like you are his only client with the attention he gives to every case. Freddy has guided me and my family through this very difficult time. Freddy carries himself with respect for himself, his clients and others. He is strong willed and won’t back down. He will fight for the best possible outcome for his clients. He is always looking for the best situation for the child involved. I can’t even begin to explain how grateful I am for his services, there aren’t enough words in the dictionary. DO NOT HESITATE TO HIRE FREDDY.

I found out about Avvo from my older sister when I desperately needed an affordable lawyer for my divorce and child custody emergency. I needed a method affordable, simple, easy to understand, and would be available immediately. I was a victim of a 7 year marriage to a Narcissitic Passive Aggressive ...Abuser (not physical but emotional and mental) and I shared a child with him. I had been seperated from him even sexually for 3-4 years and I was still living in the same home. Wasn’t able or Independant financially enough to split physically/geographically prior. I was going through the worse experience of my life. ALL I wanted was peace. I wanted an amiable separation and divorce and child custody. If you’ve ever been in a relationship with one or know one a narcissist wants to argue and fight all the time like every day of your life, they twist your words and feelings, the gaslight you and mess with your head, and although they don’t want you they hold on tight so you can’t/won’t choose to leave. Mine escape was a long time coming and I desperately needed an understanding and supportive lawyer to just walk me through the process that would protect me legally the best with my rights in tact but also a peaceful not having a grudge match out in court type of leaving. I didn’t want that for myself or my daughter we had been through quite enough already. Although as a lawyer he was ready and willing to fight hard for me in court no matter what it took he listened to all my fears concerns and wishes due to being so mentally and emotionally beaten and exhausted I just didn’t have it in me at that time for anything with the word “fight” or argue”. Once successfully contacted and hired (which was speedily) He explained all my pros and cons. What to expect going in and coming out. He was readily at my disposal with any questions day or night by text phone or email despite whatever his busy schedule and plate was holding at the time. He reasonably priced me and at a high enough rate to get protection from my husband not being as peaceable and amiable as I was about the split. He took care of all paperwork, all filing, and was so personal to deal with. I really appreciated everything he did at that time. This was back in around May of 2018 my divorce was finalized by about August that same year. I was SO grateful for such respectful, understanding, compassionate, friendly, cut throat lawyer assistance that he gave me at this time. I wish I was able to have written this review of gratitude sooner but the wounds of abuse and divorce take time to heal. I believe now I will be reconsidering pursuing more sole custody of my daughter and when and if I ever do he will be my first choice again. Thank you Avvo for being here for those of us who need protection and don’t have deep pockets and thank you Freddie Godoy for all your meets, messages, and every effort and hard work you put towards me& my now husbands continuing peace. Could not be more grateful. Thanks again! Best of everything to you and your family and little girls.
