A true God send!

The first time I meet with Stacy I knew right away she was the attorney I should of hired from the start. I had hired another attorney over two years ago and my case was barely moving. As you can imagine, I was frustrated and beside myself, I couldn't take anymore of the delay. The day after I ...hired Stacy I received confirmation she had already began working on my case and working to get my court date. I was elated! With-in the following months, I discovered she was always prepared and she remembered names, times and situations from the past. Let me be the first to tell you, this was extremely refreshing, since my last attorney never could keep up the details of my case. Stacy knew the law inside and out and honestly blew the opposing counsel out of the water with her knowledge. She has fire, drive, and dedication. She obviously loves what she does because shows. My only regret is that I didn't hire her sooner, because she worth every penny!! Thank you for all your hard work, I can't express how happy you have made me and my son. From the bottom of my heart, thank you thank you!!!!

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!

Caring & Personable Attorney

Stacy was wonderful, caring, and compassionate in my case. She was firm with the opposition and completely backed me at all times. I am extremely grateful.

Organized, Professional, Knowledgeable, Thorough

Stacy is an outstanding Attorney and I would highly recommend her. She was extraordinarily professional from the first consultation and it was clear that even though she is a busy and successful lawyer my case would be a priority. She came highly recommended from a friend who was also going throu...gh the same process I was about to start and was extremely happy with Stacy and her staff. In my own case, I was a bit distraught and unsure since I was still reeling from having completely unexpected and contentious divorce proceedings filed against me. She was professional and reassuring that WE could get through it. I immediately hired her to handle the divorce and have been pleased ever since. She rapidly and efficiently filed motions, followed up with the opposing attorney, and drove my case to a positive resolution. She organized the required family study, she filed the appropriate motions, and proposed both mediation and nominated the areas finest mediators who cleared their schedules to work with Stacy. Stacy accompanied me on two separate mediation efforts and remained constant and steadfast throughout the all day negotiations despite the difficult personalities representing the other side. She was patient and helpful throughout those processes and actually had significantly more knowledge than opposing counsel and helped him understand the intricacies of our case and the most expeditious way to come to resolution. Throughout the mediation efforts, Stacy was clearly willing and able to take these proceedings to trial. The other side and the mediators realized that would have resulted in another victory for her. But, she was focused on my objective to find middle ground through mediation and avoid the family pain of a trial. Both times the mediator (two separate, excellent professionals) praised her skill, ability, and willingness to effectively find common ground, create necessary written agreements on the spot, and eventually drive a resolution that was positive for her client (me) and acceptable to the opposition. Stacy and her outstanding staff then went to work creating and verifying the documentation required to codify and conclude the agreements we reached through mediation. This required a lot of effort and follow up and Stacy and her folks continually followed up with opposing counsel -- who was difficult to deal with. Despite that, they got all the requisite documents we needed completed in record time and was prepared to go to court to finalize the divorce ahead of schedule. She personally accompanied me to the courthouse to complete the process and was kind and understanding of the gravity and finality of the proceedings. The other side did not appear. Stacy has continued to advise me and my family concerning the implementation of all the agreements and has provided excellent advice as the other side has tried to find ways around the agreements made in mediation. She has sent countless emails, official correspondence, and spent time on the phone to work with opposing counsel to provide the right documents and to ensure compliance with the agreements she helped negotiate. I will continue to rely on Stacy going forward and when I have additional family law requirements she will be the first person I call for help. Further, if my friends, business associates, or neighbors need a top drawer family lawyer Stacy will get my strongest referral. In short, Stacy Goodbread and her exceptional staff guided me through one of the most difficult periods of my life. They were professional, effective, efficient, as well as kind and caring. Stacy and her team made a really challenging situation more bearable. In the end, though this is not where I would have wanted to find myself, Stacy's work meant in the end my interests were protected and my family and I will be forever grateful to her.

Custody Battle

July 2016 I hired Stacy for what I assumed would be standard establishment of paternity. As a Veteran and someone who has never had any negative legal interactions I was completely unprepared for what ensued. What I failed to realize, at the time, was that the other parent did not have intentions of ...willingly allowing me to play a role in my child's life. This began a year long campaign in which I had to defend every aspect of my life. Any father going through the family court system will quickly realize that they will be be disadvantaged. This requires patience, tenacity, and the willingness to fight and prove that you are someone that deserves to be in your child's life. Stacy is the single reason I was able to succeed at preventing the other parent from continuing to alienate me. Stacy refused to allow this to happen. From day one she filed motions and compelled the other side to comply with our court orders or risk litigation. Stacy never allowed me to be taken advantage of and refused to allow me to give up hope, even when I became hopeless. Ultimately, Stacy was able to mediate a settlement with the other side and got me a very favorable outcome. I would never want anyone else to defend me in family court. Stacy and her entire office made my case their business and I felt like family. I am eternally grateful for Stacy and her wonderful staff.
