Michelle Ericka Goldstein

Being an attorney you would expect her to be attempting to sell herself and give false promises that she can not keep. I met with Attorney Goldstein and she was very professional and did not attempt to give false hope in my divorce and custody. She was upfront about what the possibilies and what the ...outcomes could possibly be. I had met with 2 attorneys prior to her and they wanted $200 to $300 for just walking in their office. I went to her office under the same mindset of paying this huge amount for the consult and ended up starting the retaining process. I did not want to have a battle so to speak with my wife, Attorney Goldstein discussed and gave me a detailed resolution to propose to my wife. My wife accepted the proposal we emailed Attorney Goldstein and she had everything filed the very nexted day. 90 days elapsed my ex wife and I were divorced and the children have equal time with both families. Attorney Goldstein was caring and understanding with the situation that my wife and I were only married for the children's sake. She helped to show us another way and there are Attorneys out there that truly try to find the best way to resolve matters. Attorneys like this special lady take their time to listen and have an understanding that not all people are out to battle over material items and using their children as pawns to attempt to destroy the other parent. I am a office professional with old fashioned values, I thought getting a divorce was taboo but the way Attorney Goldstein handled my case was more then you can ask for in an Attorney.

I went to see Michelle and wanted to end my rights to my son. The mother had said she wanted nothing to do with me and I would never see my child. She threw me out when she was 8 months pregnant. I went to see Michelle and while I was waiting her secretary was talking to me about why did I look so sc...ared. I said this isn't for me and I don't think I should be here. She said hold on dont leave, with that she pushed back her chair went into Michelle's office, next thing I knew Michelle walked out and said come with me and let's talk. I was 19 no money working at Burger King and Living with my mom. I told her what I wanted to do and she said no. I said why she said because we are going to get you visitation and Fathers have rights too. She has been in my case and still is on my case making me and helping me to be the GREAT father I am today. If it would not have been for her secretary asking why was I so scared i would have got up and walked out. Now I know I always have Michelle to fight for me and my son. I can never thank her enough, she told me once I am not Attorney who wants to get rich, I want to see justice for everyone equally. She always makes you feel you more then just another paying client. You might not like the truth but with her you get the truth and justice.

I was already involved in a custody battle for my daughter in york county when I went to see Michelle. I had an attorney prior to hiring Michelle was not representing me the way I heard Michelle would. I was already scared to meet with another attorney because my former attorney charged me out the no...se for just attending a conference. And wanted to have another $4000 for a hearing which did not include attorney correspondence, emails, phone call, or letters to keep me informed about my case. I was broke and had no one to help me until I went to the office and met with Michelle on a Saturday. She had made the time for me and worked with my schedule. She greeted me at the door with a warm smile and assuring me she would help. By the end of the meeting I had a first class attorney by my side and knew she would fight for my daughter and I .She setup a payment plan to fit my budget and was honest with about what she could do and would do for my case.She wasn't like my former attorney who promised me I win and talked about how good she was. Michelle explained everything to me in detail. She explained every step she would take and why. When it came to court she was my advocate and got the everything heard the way I wanted it. She got me primary custody of my baby. Everytime I would have a question she would respond to me right away through email or texting. She gave me her personal number and in case of an emergency and said to use it if nescessary. She made me feel like I was more then just a client who paid her money. I realized she had a big heart. I asked once why did she take my case and just charge me a flat rate when any other attorney would keep on charging their clients. An Attorney of her caliber usually would be worth so much more. She laughed and said I love my job and knowing I make a difference . She said that is why I do this because every deserves to have justice especially people that can not afford it. So if you want an attorney that is aggressive and think that you can't afford the best well you need to come and meet with Michelle. Her and her staff are ready to help you and treat you the way all attorneys should. They treat you like your a friend and work with any situation and any budget. And believe me when I say this you will not find anyone more honest blunt and truthful then her. She puts her heart into every case to get the outcome her clients want and won't quit till she feels they get justice. So your want the best come and setup a meeting with Michelle she didn't let me down and she won't let you down either.
