Excellent Attorney

Bill stayed on top of me to get him the paperwork needed to provide me with the best possible outcome. He got one ridiculous ticket dismissed, and had the other lessened to a non moving violation. No insurance hikes and no dmv points for me. Very happy!!

Dependable and Trustworthy

I highly recommend Atty Goldston. He is compassionate and genuine in helping his clients to get their full benefits and a great advocate. He is a great listener and will spend his time with you when you need advise. I feel that he's not just after the money but more in helping his clients. I receive...d the appropriate treatment that I need because of him and for that I'm so very grateful. And He also helped my son dropped his charges.

Awesome Attorney!!

I got a speeding ticket in Apex doing 62 in a 45. Got home, spoke to my son who told me to call Mr. William Goldston. I did call him, he told me over the phone what it would cost and I hired him. He did go to court for me, and on that day after he went to court for me, he sent me an email telling me ...what my charge was and court cost. He got my charge reduced to improper equipment! This saves my license from revocation!! This attorney is great. Not only does he answer his calls, he calls you back if you have any questions and he keeps you informed! I hope I don't ever need an attorney but if I do, I will call Mr. William Goldston! Thank you Mr. Goldston!
