Jennifer S. Goldman

I hired Ms. Goldman to represent me in my divorce. She made a very difficult, complicated, and uneasy situation both straightforward and palatable . She and Kris were both extremely kind and patient, yet courteously direct. Throughout the process, the pros and cons of each decision/situation were car...efully detailed to me. Kris (her paralegal) was truly wonderful in explaining the process and procedures, which was very comforting considering the circumstances, and made me feel as if I was in good hands. Ms. Goldman was on time, professional, and just as important, very efficient with my money. As miserable of a situation a divorce can be, I was truly impressed with how these ladies streamlined the process and made it as managable as possible. In the end, Ms.Goldman and her staff did exactly what was explained to me in our first meeting and I cannot say enough good things about this law practice and how they treat their clients. I would highly and confidently recommend them to anyone.

I hired Jen back in 2011 to represent me in a case with Child Protective Services. She exceeded my expectations and helped me reach an agreement I was happy with. I had an especially complicated case and in fact I felt like we were forging new ground in family court. A few years later we terminated t...he parental rights of my child's father and had my son's name changed and removed the father from the birth certificate. Jen and Kris are so compassionate and truly care about me and my family and that was evident from day one. They always return phone calls and emails in a timely manner (usually within a few hours ). I have recommended them to a few friends. They extended me grace and treated me with dignity and were very professional and competent.

I'm a father of three, living in conservative and traditional Collin County. I found out early in the divorce process that most dads accept the "Standard Possession Schedule" and see their kids three weekends a month. Along with that schedule comes "customary child support" which is based on the fat...her's income, (not the needs or expenses of "the child"). Our three children have two parents -- it would be unfair for the kids to constantly miss one parent because the other parent has "primary" residence. It's uncomfortable for one parent to be "waiting on a child support check" and the other parent to be financially drained and not have sufficient cash flow to pay for educational, medical, or the general fun things that all kids need as they grow. I know this, because my parents divorced when I was about ten years old. I recall that neither of parents seemed to have any extra money "because of the divorce". Jen and Kris helped me not give in to the typical expectation, because I knew that "standard possession" would hurt my kids, irrespective of which parent was "primary". My firm was by my side when I had to prepare and respond to complex and emotional discovery matters. The financials would have been more stressful than I could have managed, without their efforts. When I needed to talk to them, they answered the phone. I received email responses even in "off hours" - which I especially appreciated. Because when you're going through a divorce - they understand that a person should not have to be stressed or angry, because their lawyer hasn't gotten back to them. I now have joint custody of our children, with a 50/50 (week on, week off) possession schedule. I pay my children's expenses, because I'm better at managing money than their mom. There is no "child support" and my children never have to hear that term used in either of our households. My children have no "primary parent, or primary residence". It should be expected that a couple's decision to divorce should not include adding continued stress for their kids. Each parent may move on to other relationships (or not), but our kids only have two actual parents for the rest of their life. Because I do not pay "child support" nor does the children's mother - means that we both have more budget to provide for our kid's needs in the two homes they mutually love. I am thankful for Jennifer, because she and Kris helped me keep the outcome in mind. At times, I felt like I was up against the wall with "standards" and "customary" expectations that most likely would have been the result of not preparing strategically, and just judge hoping that the judge would make the right decision. Thankfully, we did reached an eventual agreement - although early on I didn't think would ever be possible. It's easy to walk away from a fight, but when your kids are in the middle - they need a hero, not a coward. Jennifer helped me keep my role as a real dad. And my children will not have less opportunity for greatness because of their parents being divorced.

Mrs. Jennifer Goldman kept my children's best always the center of the case. She and her knowledgeable staff made it easy for me to find the best solutions, knowing she and her team had not just my back but as I mentioned my children, as well. Her timely responses, time for details and her time and... patience towards our meetings, phone calls, court sessions, emails, etc left a very sweet taste of a fine lawyer whose an awesome, caring and genuine human being. I highly recommend Mrs. Jennifer Goldman, she's the best and my favorite part in my dealings with her is her AMAZING PRESENTATION. I wish her much success. Thank you for going over and beyond my expectation.

Jennifer Goldman and her staff were caring, professional, personal, timely, and accurate when serving our family. This law firm became part of our family, and we are truly grateful for the wonderful service they provided. Every email, phone call, and request was immediately attended. Jennifer and ...her staff made themselves available for our family during critical meetings, phone calls, and whenever we needed a friendly voice and sounding board for feedback. We would recommend Jennifer Goldman and her staff to anyone in need of an attorney, and we will use them again in the future if ever the need arises.
