Carolyn G Goodman

Carolyn is a wonderful attorney and a supportive, understanding human being. I am truly grateful that I had the opportunity to work with her. I spoke with several attorneys before making my decision, and from our very first phone call I could tell she was different. She did not rush the conversation ...or treat it like just another case, she listened carefully, understood the details of my situation, and provided thoughtful, practical advice right away. That first call lasted more than half an hour, and after it, I knew I wanted her to represent me. My divorce case was long and challenging, and Carolyn was exceptional throughout the entire process. She handled many responsibilities beyond what was expected and always remained solution-focused. At times, the mediator and the opposing attorney were difficult to work with, and there were even moments when it felt like she was doing more than her share just to keep the process moving forward. She was always accessible, I could reach her quickly whenever needed, we spent hours discussing important details, and she consistently responded to my emails in minutes. I was going through an extremely difficult time financially and emotionally, and Carolyn was incredibly supportive. Even during periods when I struggled to make payments, she continued to work hard and never pressured me. In fact, there were times when she first asked whether I was financially okay before even mentioning her fees. That says a lot about her character, she is not money-centered; she genuinely cares about her clients as people. There were moments when I shared my sadness and emotional struggles, and she was supportive like a friend and, at times, almost like a therapist. She guided me with honesty and professionalism, sometimes telling me things that were difficult to hear, but that honesty is exactly what makes her such an exceptional attorney. She does not sugarcoat reality; she is direct, logical, and always focused on achieving the best possible outcome. In the end, we were able to reach an agreement, and my divorce is now finalized. I truly owe this result in large part to Carolyn’s dedication, intelligence, and steady guidance. I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs not only a highly skilled and successful attorney, but also a genuinely kind and compassionate human being.

Carolyn Goodman did an amazing job in handling my separation agreement and divorce. She we very responsive, kind, and dedicated to advocating for me in every way possible. I feel very fortunate to have found her. She demonstrated again and again that she was sincere in her desire to help make a real...ly difficult experience more tolerable. I am grateful to her for helping me to win my freedom. I recommend her without reservation.

I found Carolyn by way of her online reviews and I am so grateful that I did. I had actually consulted with another Attorney before meeting Carolyn and the experience left me very anxious. Carolyn deserves more than 5 stars. Personally, from my first phone call with Carolyn, she put me at ease. ...She laid out the process in a way that I could understand and gave me a list of information to pull together - whether or not I chose to hire her. I am so glad I made the choice to work with her. Carolyn balanced being very empathetic to my emotional state and also bringing the focus back to the matter at hand in order to make progress. Professionally, Carolyn is expert in her field, very thorough and her follow up and follow through is outstanding. She quickly drafted an equitable settlement agreement that didn't change much from draft to final copy. Because of circumstances beyond her control, the divorce process took over a year but she kept me informed throughout. The settlement agreement she drafted served as a guide, for me and my ex-husband, of things we had to address. By the time of the divorce hearing most everything in the agreement had been settled! Many times Carolyn would call me to check on me and see how I and my children were adjusting to our new normal. I cannot express enough, Carolyn truly had my best interests at heart and she is the person you want in your corner!
