THE laywer to have on your side

Stacy and staff helped me with both my divorce and child support issues and have been extremely professional through the entire process. Promptly responded to all questions and have even continued to assist me with additional questions and issues that have popped up long after the case was completed.... Even though I was in the worst time of my life, Stacy and staff got me through it all and I would highly recommend her to help guide and provide great information to anyone in need of legal services.

Reccomended

We used stacy for a modification case and she was fantastic! She was quick, worked with our schedule as needed, and got us everything we wanted. She offered a free consultation, guided us in our options, and the communication was fantastic the entire time we dealt with her and her office. If you ar...e looking for a lawyer who is honest, confident, efficient, and has a "go get 'em" type approach, she is your woman. I would hire her again in a heartbeat! Thanks stacy!

You NEED her on your side. Go with the Queen Bee!

Stacy represented me in my divorce with children. This was far from an easy case, but with Stacy's guidance and tenacity, we secured 50/50 possession and a fair split for this Dad. I wouldn't have wanted any other attorney by my side. Gentlemen, if your case ever makes it in front of the judge, yo...u'll want a female attorney that can ask your ex the tough questions without looking like a man bullying a lady. Stacy was able to make her points in ways a male attorney simply couldn't. A divorce sometimes take unexpected turns down some nasty paths. Stacy helped navigate through the muck while never losing sight of the primary objective. She is an experienced litigator that knows the local judges(a huge +), a street fighter when necessary, charms her audience in court, and a highly skilled negotiator and advisor. On occasion, we all let emotion drive our decisions. A great thing about Stacy is that she will be frank with you if you're being unreasonable or irrational in your expectations. Lastly, I've also been on the other side in a case where Stacy was opposing counsel. Trust me...you NEED her on your side. I highly recommend Stacy Goodbread. The choice is an easy one. Go with the Queen Bee!

Best family lawyer! Professional & a Woman of Action

Contacted & consulted with Stacy Goodbread (also previously hired) to handle an urgent & complex family matter. Within minutes of our conversation, we had a plan of action. I followed her recommendations & in a very short period of time, it resulted in a positive outcome for my young daughter. My fam...ily is grateful for Stacy’s genuine care & professional & actionable advice. She’s truly a family advocate and provides you confidence in facing sensitive family matters.

Not just a wonderful lawyer...but a great person too!

Stacy Goodbread is a tiger of a lawyer! My divorce situation was one where I needed a hero...and I found her! Her knowledge of the law, dedication to me, and spunkiness won our case! She was my rock... and continues to be that for many of my friends and family that I have referred them to. I alwa...ys knew she was on my side and guided me through some of the darkest days of my life! Even to this day we keep in touch...she doesn't just care for you during your case...the relationship continues...if you want a winner she is your girl!
