Michelle Ericka Goldstein

I cannot express how greatful I am for meeting Michelle. I contacted her after I received a letter that I needed to attend a criminal history hearing as part of my custody complaint. I was concerned that my past would come back to haunt me as I fight for custody of my daughter. I'm not much of a talk...er and I needed someone to be my voice. Michelle was so wonderful and answered all questions and concerns i had about my case. My wife and I walked out of her office with a weight off our shoulders and an attorney by my side not only for the criminal history hearing, but for the entire custody case. I'm so blessed to have Michelle by my side as I go through this journey. I look forward in working with her.

In a Sea of Lawyers that prey on your hopes and just want to take your money. Attorney Goldstein and her trusted assistant Mrs. Lewis, are a breathe of fresh air. She is currently working my custody case. Attorney Goldstein is firm believer in the needs of the child above personal grievances between... parents. She doesn't grandstand, she simply conveys the facts of the case. She is in military terms what we refer to as "Quiet Professional". She hears your problem, addresses the problem, and then develops a clear concise course of action that gets results. She doesn't give you false sense of hope or sugarcoat actions of the court. I have been through (4) different Lawyer's over the years and no one has handled my case as well as Michele and Teresa have. They brought my child home for the summer!!! I'm glad that they are on my team and I consider them family. Always Faithful, D.D.

I went to Attorney Goldstein at her office expecting to listen to another Attorney making empty promises and grand standing about the creditenials they have. I spoke with TL her Assistant and she was gathering the information for Attorney Goldstein. We spoke for more then an hour for she ran a bac...kground check on the mother and her boyfriend. By the appointment I expected to have a bill for the work her assistant did to prepare for the consult. To my surprize Attorney Goldstein does everything for a flatrate and explained she chose this career to see that the children are protected. I was impressed, by the end of the consultation I had an Attorney and she had prepared the complaint after i had left and it was sent out the very same afternoon. The following week I attended the Family Business Court and Attorney Goldstein conducted herself with elegance and got a temporary order granting me primary pending the conference. She did not grandstand for the gallery, she stated the facts. Needless to say I realized she was a blessing to the legal profession and child advocate. She explains every aspect even down to how a situation may look from a child's point of view. Currently I primary of my children, I also have a new outlook on Attorneys and the Justice System. The mother and I are coparenting and attempting to do what is best for our children. Thanks Attorney Goldstein for rising above the standard and prove skeptics like I was there are Great attorneys still out there who believe in what they are doing.

My review is a little different, short and to the point. As stated in other reviews Attorney Goldstein is all of those things. The only thing missing is mention of the dedication and time she spend answering endless questions and preparing for each case. In my case it was pushed to a hearing, I had s...o many questions and emailed them all as I thought of them. She answered them and explained she was working on my case with a flu. This was a Saturday. Wednesday of the next week was the hearing. I was so nervous, Monday came the opposing Attorney sent her everything asked to settle the case. I was awarded primary custody and he got every other weekend. I went to office and spoke about the stipulation. I looked at her and stated none of this would be possible without the time and dedication you kept through the process. We sent the signed documents over and I went to pay the remaining balance , I ask her what is my bill expecting to be charged for all the correspondence and hours of work she had done. She stated you paid your balance in full there Is no other charges. Attorney of her caliber should be working in a big law firm as a partner, that was also the time I realized she is not your typical Attorney. Thank you Attorney Goldstein from all those like myself you have helped.
