this man is a fraud

this man will take your money and stop getting in contact with you. I have paid this man to help me with child support and legal costars etc. and I haven’t heard from him since November. Someone finally reached out telling me he will not be representing me and my payment is non refundable. Please sa...ve yourself the money and stress and look elsewhere

How To Win Against This Attorney

To be upfront, I was on the opposing side of this attorney. I can't speak on his ability with other areas of law, but regarding Family Law, I can give you full insight. Mr. Goldstein is not the most intelligent attorney on this matter, but his aggressiveness, ability to manipulate and come up with st...ories are his strong suits. This worked out well for him in the beginning of our case; however, I learned how to handle Mr. Goldstein's tactics soon enough. As a result, Mr. Goldstein was easily handled going forward, both while being represented or just representing myself. The key to dealing with Mr. Goldstein is to just make sure you keep EVERY piece of communication involving Mr. Goldstein because he always tends to shoot himself in the foot during his cocky emails. By doing this, I submitted his communications to the judge as evidence and used case law Rosen v. Rosen which shows that a party is being difficult and intentionally delaying a solution and as a result, the judge awarded me $2,000 in attorney fees. Mr. Goldstein attempted to manipulate the child support calculations by submitting only half of his client's annual income, committing potential fraud. When he got caught red handed as we had all the W-2s in our possession, comically provided to us accidentally by someone from his office, he continued to deny and lie. Needless to say, not only did Mr. Goldstein look horrible in the eyes of the court, but Mr. Goldstein and his client (my ex) parted ways immediately after. Just be prepared for a circus show when going against this attorney.

Do not waste your time and money.

Adam and his team were quick to get me to pay and sign the retainer paperwork, but after that I am told they are too busy to assist me with my case. Disappointing experience is an understatement.

Helped my family with a Contracting NIGHTMARE!

Adam has helped my family with a pool building NIGHTMARE. I am a Disabled Veteran who was at the end of my rope with a pool company that turned out to be shady and stole our money! A friend recommended Adam. This is not what he regularly does case wise, but he took our case and he was EXCELLENT! His ...firm ended up helping us twice, once when the pool builders took our deposit and didn't show up, and again when the pool company failed to pay their subcontractors , who in turn put a LIEN on our home and filed a collection against us ( The pool company was paid in full). He took care of all of it!! I cannot say enough positive things about his firm. Adam is honest and forthright. He will not fill you with unrealistic expectations, but tell you the TRUTH about your case and how you should go about moving forward. HIGHLY RECOMMEND, MORE THAN CAN BE STATED IN THIS REVIEW!! AAA+++
