A Phenomenal Adoption Experience!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about the staff and the quality of service we received from The Law Office of Gregory Goline. They were REMARKABLE at handling my daughters adoption. The attorneys made the entire process so easy which allowed us to primarily focus on the celebration of this amazi...ng event. The communication and availability of the staff was spectacular! Ashley in particular was such an extraordinary piece to our entire process. She helped to navigate us through each step. She was so great that we requested she attend the hearing as support and we were so happy to have her present. Our entire experience was superior and most importantly it was VERY AFFORDABLE!! I mean let’s face it, legal representation can be costly and often times many attorneys will focus on fees, this was NOT our experience with The Law Office of Gregory Goline. The focus was truly on making our process as simplistic and as affordable as possible. We are truly thankful! I would recommend anyone who is in need of legal representation to contact Gregory Goline and his phenomenal staff!!!

Highly recommend!!

Greg is my go to lawyer! my husband and I have used him as our lawyer for a couple different cases. Greg is honest and straight forward, and will tell you like it is! which is nice having your lawyer be that voice of reason you either want to hear or don't want to hear. either way he will guide you... in what is best for your case, what is achievable and he DELIVERS! we will always choose as our lawyer and recommend Greg's office to anyone who asks "do you know of any good lawyers?" well in fact I do!

LOUSY

Want results ! Keep searching , nothing competent here. No statement, no communication , they don't even collect your basic information.

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.

One little mistake could ruin a life

I got arrested when I had just turned 17, not a thing on my record, not even a traffic violation (which is hard to come by now-a-days). My conviction was Racing on a Highway which in the state of Texas is considered a Class B misdemeanor. Which is also looked at just as bad as a DUI or DWI. I went wi...th my mom and dad to talk to Greg Goline after carefully looking through all my other options for attorney's. Our original intentions was to have an interview with Greg and then go look at our other options. As soon as we talked to Greg we did not even blink an eye, we went with him. He told us exactly what he was trying to do with my case and his intentions was to get every thing wiped off. He ended up getting me Pretrial Diversion. Which is a limited time of probation and as long as I behave myself it all get's expunged. I even got pulled over for something extremely stupid, told Greg and he immediately took care of it for me. He is a very respectable and educated man, also has a good sense of humor which can lighten the situation up a little bit.
