Phil Goldberg

After 3 years of divorce, I had a dispute with my ex regarding the terms of our MOU. Phil was recommended to me by a former client and I couldn't have been more pleased. It was a stressful process for me and one I didn't anticipate, but Phil's knowledge of the law, understanding of the terms, and o...verall emotional support of me in this situation was paramount. I, too, recommended him to a friend. If you are looking for a thorough, dedicated, insightful lawyer, Phil is your person!

YAY... it's over!!

I think Phil Goldbergs skills are amazing. He is very knowledgeable about all the rules and totally looks out for you. He tells you like it is and has a GREAT friendly demeanor. He literally cares about all your needs and shows it. I appreciate him greatly and I know you will too. Mine was just a div...orce, but a tough one. He got me through it...

Custody Dispute

I would highly recommend Phil for any parent who is in need of a lawyer for custody cases. He ensured I understood all aspects of my case. He thoroughly reviewed the options and different scenarios we could encounter throughout the process. I am thankful that I was able to hire him for what was a ...truly unprecedented situation.

Highly recommend.

Philip is a great lawyer. Very thorough, fair, patient, highly knowledgeable, and very reliable. He truly cared about my case and did everything in my best interests. He provided me with realistic expectations from the start, yet was ready to fight for my rights. I certainly recommend him to anyone... looking for a great family attorney!

Prenuptial Agreement

Philip was great! He helped draft and finalize a prenuptial agreement on short notice. He’s very knowledgeable and addressed a lot of my concerns. I highly recommend him if you’re in need of prenuptial or post-nuptial services.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
