Steven Goldman

Steve is such an amazing talented lawyer and extremely professional. His team was so well organized with everything in my case and always very responsive to every single question I had. Steve helped navigate me through a very difficult divorce and custody battle from a raging narcissist, and before ...hiring Steve I felt completely hopeless, as my previous attorney left me high and dry in the middle of the biggest battle of my life, told me to forget about fighting for the marital home and got me for 12k. I put my complete trust in Steve and he never steered me wrong. Not only did he get me half of the money for my home, attorneys fees, full custody of my son, and more most importantly he gave me my life back and peace of mind and for that I am extremely grateful. If your looking for an attorney who will fight for you and the best interest of your children you need to look no further. You will not only have a truly gifted attorney dedicated to his craft but an entire team behind you.

Steven Goldman and his team helped me navigate the complex process of divorce beautifully. He was straightforward in his communication, thorough in organizing a complex financial situation, and creative in his solutions. Mr. Goldman cared about my well-being and settled the case very quickly. The out...come was more than I would have asked for if I had suggested a settlement myself. I could not have found a more competent, intelligent, and thoughtful attorney. I am incredibly grateful for his wisdom and counsel.

Where to begin? I was an American ex-pat stuck in Doha, Qatar. When I found out that I was essentially stateless (since I didn’t have domicile), I began to lose hope. But then I found Steven. He immediately offered a creative and intelligent way to navigate my case and find a way home and, more impor...tantly, to keep the kids stateside. By the time we were, and the real battle commenced (over jurisdiction and other messy matters), his abilities shone. In the end, his professionalism, intelligence, compassion, and meticulousness won negotiations: that, and his ability to work well with an outside expert on international law. Additional gratitude to the front staff and his assistant. They, too, were professional and warm. My girls are back on American soil, and so am I, and there is no looking back. Upwards and onwards. Thank you, Steven!

No, I haven't (yet) but when he asked me this question I felt properly understood. After consulting with 4 attorneys, and hiring and firing 2 others, I finally came upon Steven through an initial consult with Gerald Curran. Steven came to Curran Moher Weiss from NY, where I'm from, and I immediatel...y felt a comfort level with him. My divorce was complicated by an ongoing complete mental disconnect regarding family responsibilities affecting my ex. There were no complications with assets (ex has/had none, and had gone through all of mine). Most importantly, especially when money is your biggest issue, Steven does not try to bill as many hours as possible. There were many times (which I ultimately really appreciated) where Steven essentially politely told me to shut up. When you are righteously indignant about the injustices inflicted upon you, and when you find an audience willing to listen; you can talk for hours. I could have done that with Steven, but he steered me to relevant, actionable information and steps. I was very, very grateful for this, and our working relationship has had to continue through multiple hearings well after the divorce settlement was complete. He stays on task, gets done what needs to get done in as straightforward a manner as possible, and does not waste time, or even allow you to waste time on tangents that don't lead to any beneficial outcome. I believe this is a paramount quality for any good lawyer to have, but in the case of this highly emotional type of practice, it is absolutely key. He also understands personality disorders, which sadly many lawyers in this day and age do not, so rest assured he has the appropriate amount of empathy, but won't let you wallow in grief or indignation. You can save that for your friends, Ben & Jerry, your therapist etc., and he will help you get the hard stuff done. I highly, unequivocally recommend Steven for your divorce needs.

Finding the right attorney to help me through my divorce, was one of the most important and life altering decisions of my life. After several frustrating (and expensive!!) interactions with my first divorce attorney, I quickly realized that I needed a different attorney- someone skilled who also had ...my best interest at heart. I found all this, and so much more than I could have hoped for with Steve Goldman and his whole team at Curran Moher and Weis. Steve represents what is in my opinion a rare combination of exceptional skill, intelligence, honesty, integrity, and compassion for his clients. His calm disposition makes all his amazing qualities shine all the more. These characteristics were evident from our first video call. Steve listened with care, and answered my questions with the honesty and clarity that I was looking for. He is a talented attorney and master communicator with high emotional intelligence, who made me feel heard and understood. He translated my needs into legal language and action while always communicating with me the reality of any given point in question. He provides sage counsel and explains options with projections and recommendations which helped me navigate difficult decision after difficult decision. Throughout the arduous divorce process, he demonstrated that he cared not only about the outcome of the case, but about my overall well-being as a person and the toll that this process can take. At every decision point, he gracefully balanced firmness and strength while representing my case without ever fueling the fires that were instigated by my ex. Steve is a master negotiator whose experience and expertise allowed us to reach a favorable settlement agreement out of court. His vast knowledge of the law, experience and negotiation skills saved me the emotional pain and additional cost of a trial. However, he was always prepared to take the case to court if that’s what it took for a fair outcome, and he let the opposing counsel know this very clearly. He is fierce towards the opposing side, while showing great empathy and sensitivity to his client. He gave me much needed reassurance and strength during the most difficult chapter of my life- navigating a divorce while being a frontline physician during a pandemic. He always showed utmost respect and sensitivity towards the difficult demands of my profession and was flexible working with my crazy work schedule. He was always accessible by email or phone and responded in a very timely fashion. Steve’s entire team has the same competence, work ethic, and integrity. His paralegal, Julia was so integral in organizing needed documents- a task which would have been daunting without her help. She and the firm’s receptionist, Michelle, were always very helpful and responsive. Their office manager, Erin, was always willing to go out of her way to help in any way she could and was an invaluable source of responsiveness, kindness and support. In short, I cannot imagine having gone through the stressful divorce process with anyone other than Steve Goldman as my steadfast attorney. Simply put, Steve Goldman is an exceptionally skilled attorney and an upstanding human being. He truly cares about his clients and represents them with fierce conviction and skill. I feel incredibly fortunate and grateful to have had him in my corner. The outcome of my divorce was desirable, and he made a most difficult process not only feel manageable but even empowering by way of his wisdom and expertise. It goes without saying that I wholeheartedly recommend seeking his counsel as your divorce attorney.
