Ronald L. Goldstein

I consulted Mr. Goldstein regarding a social security matter. My mother accompanied me to the appointment because she helped me fill out the paperwork when I was a minor. For context my mother is a US citizen of Asian descent but English is her second language. During the consultation, Mr. Goldstein ...cut us off many times, didn't address our concerns, and talked very quickly. Due to my mother's language barrier and the fast pace that Mr. Goldstein was speaking, I translated much of the conversation in her native language so that she could be fully aware of what he was saying. He then started mocking us verbally by making incoherent phonetic sounds to imitate our language. He also became upset that I continued to translate for my mother and he continued to mock me by making squinting facial expressions while verbalizing stereotypical "Asian sounds" every time I translated the conversation to my mother. This was his attempt to try to get me to stop translating. My consultation was the worst experience I have had with any type of professional, Mr. Goldstein demonstrated unprofessional behavior, prejudice, and inability to show patience and empathy. I don't recommend anyone see this attorney, especially if you are a person of color. Our experience highlights that Mr. Goldstein isn't capable of making clients of different ethnic backgrounds feel comfortable.

We had a difficult claim, and were turned down by another attorney before an acquaintance recommended Ron. He was kind, informative, knowledgeable and honest with us about everything. I am certain that had it not been for Ron’s expertise and honesty with us, we would not have been successful in our d...isability hearing. He changed our lives and now we can focus on my husband’s health. I could not recommend him more.

Mr. Goldstein did an excellent job on my case! My wife and I were extremely impressed with his professionalism. He listened to our concerns and returned calls promptly with answers to our questions. He was reliable throughout the whole process and always kept us updated. We were completely satisf...ied with his representation, he exceeded mine and my wife’s expectations and we couldn’t be more thankful. We highly recommend him.

Mr Goldstein won my case at the hearing I had over 3000 pages of records which were denied previously. My case was heard and won fairly quickly with Mr Goldstein’s accurate questioning and rebuttels which I wouldn’t have done correctly. I’m glad I chose him to represent me and you more than likely wi...ll feel the same.
