Beware! Con-artist lawyer!

Beware of Mr. Goode and his retainer agreements! Promises a lot and gets absolutely nothing done. Does not return phone calls or emails. Paid Mr. Goode a flat rate retainer of $150,000.00 and did not do absolutely nothing. When Mr. Goode does return phone calls it’s very short and ends with “will cal...l you right back” but never does. If you need a reputable and honest defense attorney I would highly recommend Monico & Spevack, which are the best in the business.

Experience

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 1994.

Further suspension stayed issued in IL, 1994

updated on 08/29/2013

Further suspension stayed means the attorney has been suspended, but that the suspension is placed on hold (and ultimately removed) if the attorney complies with certain requirements. Typically the requirements are included in a probation term the lawyer has been given at the same time.

Partially Stayed Suspension issued in IL, 1994

updated on 05/19/2022

Suspension followed by probation issued in IL, 1994

updated on 04/16/2013

This type of suspension means an attorney lost his or her license to practice law for a period of time. When the attorney returns to practice the State monitors the his or her activities for a period of time.

Censure issued in IL, 1989

updated on 03/14/2010

Censure means the attorney did something wrong but may still practice law. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
