He’s a Winner!

Mr Golub and his entire staff are very professional and made me feel at ease. Communication is second to none. I always received an email, text via portal or a call back right away. If you want a lawyer with a superior staff that will fight for you and has ALL the answers he is the one!! He i...s just brilliant! He will fight for you and win trust me! Thank you Geoff for all your support and help.

If you have to go to court, go with Geoffrey Golub...

To whom it nay concern, Mr. Golub is the consummate professional with a demonstrated passion for the law. Geoff is not just any lawyer. He is a board certified trial attorney who is not afraid to fight for you at every phase of your case. And most importantly he is fully prepared to litigate your ...case in front of the judge, and/or jury. But Mr. Golub is only the tip of the iceberg of your legal team as he has an aggressive, yet cordial support staff of paralegals, investigators and office personnel who will give you a sense that you are not alone, but part of a concerted effort to get you the best possible outcome for your situation. Seeing Mr. Golub in action in the courtroom you are immediately aware of his confidence (and yet) without any signs of arrogance. I personally noticed the respect that all the officers of the court held for him which gave me the feeling that he is held in high esteem by his peers as well. Communications was also something that far exceeded my expectations. Whether by phone call or via his Internet website portal you will never wonder what's going in your case. And if you do have a question, my experience was that a response was always made in 2-4 business hours by Mr. Golub himself. In my case, Mr. Golub was able to obtain a dismissal of all charges and sanctions by the judge BEFORE trial despite an aggressive opposition by the State. I'm certain he can help you too.

Geoff is awesome-incredibly talented in law

Geoff is not a highfaluten attorney. In fact, he is just the opposite and treats everyone with respect and dignity, no matter the crime. We researched other attorney's but their rates were too outrageous. Geoff keeps his rates affordable to working class people, thus allowing someone to retain rep...resentation without having to mortgage all of their belongings. My husband and I couldn't have hired a better attorney for our son, as he got himself into quite a bit of trouble, It all started to become too convuleted to keep track of. So, we hired Geoff. Geoff sorted everything out for us. He gave us our options and discussed the pros/cons of each. He was/is always accesible via phone or email. Geoff visited our son several times while he was in jail and explained what was going on and what to expect. If you are in need of a board certified criminal defense attorney, I would without reservation recommend Geoff.

Sprung from jail within 21 days after false robbery arrest

I was falsely arrested for robbery early this year and was stuck in jail with a $250,000 bond. Within a matter of days, Geoff and his team assembled computer logs, mobile telephone records, bank records, and other evidence that showed that it was impossible for me to have been at the location where t...he robbery was claimed to have happened. A hearing on a motion for reduction of bond filed by Geoff's office was scheduled, but I never made the hearing: the State of Florida dropped the case entirely within 21 days, and I was released from jail.

"I can't say enough nice things about Geoff, but even without being such a great guy, he's an even better lawyer. No, make that a great lawyer! How do I know? We've worked together on several cases, and he's brilliant. The "problem" for Geoff is that he's so knowledgable, he has several lawyers like myself bouncing ideas off of him constantly--because we all know he has the answers! If you're in trouble, Geoff is your man. Hire him before he becomes a judge or something!"

  • 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.
