Posted by Shanda | April 07, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Child Support

Excellent Lawyer!..mine for the last 22 years..chilld support case!

I found out about Angelina when I was looking for a child support lawyer. She was recommended by a man who was getting sued for child support by his wife and Angelina was her attorney. He said he and his lawyer could not believe her knowledge and expertise in the court room. My son was 1 year when I... met Angelina I had a job but not a lot of money. She took my case anyway and worked with me on the payments, so its defiantly not about the money for her even recently. My first impression of Angelina in court, is she new the law based on your case because she had her law books reading the Judge the LAW, then I knew I was safe with her. Several times my sons father tried to sue me regarding child support issues, before and after our son who's 23 was grown, and she has handle my cases with every inch of her time and knowledge for the last 22 years and May 2016 was my last and final day of ever having to go back to court since Angelina presented my case before the Judge and it was finalize "with prejudice". I'm so grateful that I will never have to go back to court on that case. However, with Angelina you have to do your part for your case to be successful. She request information that is sometimes difficult to get. For example, witness, documents, statements and meeting with her as she requested, but you have to make an effort if you want her to present your case with all her might, which she did for me. Also, for the last 20 years I have recommended Angelina to at least 10 clients and some have recently been repeat clients that have been satisfied with her services. Deep inside, Angelina is a great person and her skills as a Family Lawyer is unmatched!!

Awesome

I was given the opportunity to adopt I reached out to Angelina. From the very beginning she sat me down and explained the entire adoption process to me. Angelina keep me informed every step of the way. Paperwork was filed timely and to top it all off she petition the courts to finalize the adoption e...arly. Thank you Angelina for your hard work and bringing me and my son together. We are forever grateful.

Executive Assistant

Attorney Angelina Gooden represented my divorce case in 2015. I must say she is a very caring, well-organized, extremely knowledgeable attorney her area of expertise! Attorney Gooden was prompt and always courteous and considerate of my feelings and emotions and did EVERYTHING in her power while adh...ering to the justice of the law to defend my case and explain every legal issue with clarity and answered multiple upon multiple questions that I had before, during, and after my case. She did an outstanding job and made me feel very comfortable and is very trustworthy of any legal case entrusted in her care. I would and still recommend her to anyone who's looking for a fair, hard-working, competent, trustworthy, compassionate attorney with strong morals and values to take on their case. You will not be sorry!

Excellent Attorney

Mrs. Gooden is a woman of good character and very professional. Her level of knowledge concerning my rights as a father help ease my stress during the time I was fighting for my rights during child custody of my daughter. Her communication skills were up front and honest with good news. As a Marine o...f 27 yrs and a Houston Firefighter of 15 years, she was exactly what I was looking for as an attorney and will continue to use her services. I highly recommend her as an outstanding attorney.
