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.

Highest recommendation

I am a financial services professional, and I have worked with Phil on multiple occasions. When the need arises, Phil refers clients to me for my services, and I refer clients to Phil, both for general legal counsel and for Phil's specialty practice, Family Law. Phil has also provided legal guidance ...for me, and I can state from my personal experience that he is an exceptional attorney - highly skilled, ethical, responsive, and he is an excellent and compassionate advocate for his clients.

Thank you

Phil Goldberg helped me with an issue with my ex wife 4 years after our payment plan was completed. I needed someone who would stand up for me and be a champion. He, literally, saved me 6 figures and handled things in a calm and professional manner. His knowledge is evident and he treated me as a ...friend. I'd give him my highest recommendation.

Excellent Knowledge

Phil has helped me in my business and family issues. I have found him to very competent. He has broad knowledge of the law.

Worth hiring

I have been working in different law firms since 2006 and it is very rare to find such an honest attorney. Knowing the in's and out’s of the legal field, I had high expectations for the attorney I choose to hire for myself. Philip will treat your case with so much attention you will feel like you are... his only client. His professionalism in court helps the judge understand your side in a very clear way. Going through a divorce is not an easy bridge to cross but it helps to have him fighting for you. I cannot imagine hiring anyone else through such a difficult time. Thank you again Philip!

  • 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.
