He’s a money hungry lawyer

Worked with Greg for 6 months and in 6 months he never kept me posted on any updates on cases and in the end I was screwed as he took all my money with no results. I ended up losing my case and my kids due to his negligence. I really took the positive reviews/accounts into consideration and lost BIG.... If I was searching for a family divorce lawyer, I would not choose Greg Goline, unless, your rich and do not like to be updated in status of case. Keep in mind, he will drain your retainer empty before you even know what he spent it on and will only ask for more money w/o informing you what he is doing. Terrible lawyer.

Lindsey, who is by far the most efficient and most pleasant I have ever met. Mr. Goline you emailed me right away and returned my phone calls t...hank you for providing genuine care. You are a true professional and a asset to our community.

Someone willing to fight for you!

I recently went through a divorce and hired Mr. Goline and his legal team to help me. They were amazing, very attentive, and always there to answer any and all questions that came up throughout the entire case... not just the beginning. Lindsey and Lauren were both extremely helpful and knowledgeable... and made me feel like someone had my back in such a scary time! I would recommend them to ANYONE! Great experience through an emotionally trying time, which in and of itself is impressive. Thanks for all y'all did for me and my family!

DWI and UCW Case

I was referred to Mr. Goline by a family member in September 2013, after I was charged with Driving While Intoxicated 1st and Unlawful Carrying of a Weapon. Mr. Goline was very knowledgeable regarding what options I had based off my situation. He was also very informative regarding possible punishmen...ts, necessary paperwork, and court appearances that I needed to attend. Mr. Goline definitely made the whole process easier for me to deal with. After discussion with Mr. Goline, he and I both agreed that the best option was to take a plea deal. The Unlawful Carrying of a Weapon charge was dropped with a Guilty Plea for the DWI 1st. I got 18 months probation, but it was the right call. My blood was over .20 at the time of arrest, so we both knew if it went to trial I was going to be found guilty of UCW because of the evidence. I would recommend Mr. Goline to anybody with a legal matter. Not too long after my case, I recommended him to a family member to handle a divorce. I'm glad I got him to represent me and my family.

Above the Rest!!

I was a stay at home mom/wife going through a horrible divorce. Greg Goline gave me hope at a time I was becoming hopeless. He was the most upfront and honest attorney I had come across after meeting with several of them. He went above and beyond his duty and saw me through the entire divorce and the...n stuck with me after it was done just to make sure everything was going as ordered. Greg and his staff are amazing and compassionate. I never felt intimidated. I highly recommend Greg Goline.
