Grateful that Scott was my attorney!
Scott Goldman handled my divorce case with utmost care and professionalism. He was approachable and very reliable throughout the process. He responded to all my emails promptly despite when I sent them. I would get responses from Scott even during the weekends. He was respectful of what mattered most...

Not Impressed
At the initial meeting, Scott told me my Appeal case COULD get very expensive. I placed my $3500 retainer and 3 weeks later was told I owe $4700+ on top of that, all for a 10-page Appeal. My inquiry about contempt and harassment charges were ignored, as was the opposing party motion to modify Child S...
First, we were not retained to handle your contempt issues or motion to modify child support - we were only retained to draft and file and appeal, which we did. Second, you admit that I told you this could be costly and it was - you omit the fact that the Court charged a fee for your transcript. In fact, we sent you regular invoices on the 15th and last day of the month via Email and you knew up front that there wasn't a payment plan. You also engaged in Email communication with the firm regarding your bill and issues within the case and now you lie and say there is no communication, which again is false. Third, your bill was about $2,500 less than what you have led the public to believe. Fourth, you were also represented by an attorney in your original case for child support and parenting time - these are not issues that we were never involved in - the appeal was a document that required research, time, and advocacy to get these issues sorted out, however, the court still has not made a decision on that document as of yet. Fifth, I take special exception to the fact that you are calling us "ambulance chasers" - that is unethical and you sought us out and retained us - we entered into a fee agreement that explained how we bill for our time and you acknowledged receipt of that as well. While I am sorry that you have financial burdens, the fact is that your review is based on issues that we were not hired for and based on your admitted upfront knowledge of costs.
"Mr. Goldman truly cares for his client’s best interest. He is hard working and methodical. Scott zealously advocates for his clients and maintains a high level of professionalism. Without reservation, I highly endorse this lawyer."
"I have known Scott personally for years. He always handles each case carefully, balancing both facts and law to seek a just result. If you need a hard working lawyer that really does know the law, then Scott is your guy no doubt!"
"I wholly endorse Scott. I trusted him with one of my very best clients who needed solid counsel desperately. Scott is an outstanding attorney, one who I am entirely at ease referring my clients to. Thanks, Scott!"
"Scott is an excellent attorney for any of your legal needs. I recommend his services for your family law needs."
"I've known Scott for many years and have admired him as a mentor and role model for other attorneys. Scott exudes an abundance of confidence and more importantly, he possesses it. Scott is an intelligent, more than capable attorney who knows the law and knows how to win any given case. I highly endorse this lawyer."
"I endorse Attorney Goldman. He is a highly skilled attorney that is well respected in the legal community. He develops a trusting relationship with his clients and has earned the respect of the local community. He and his staff work hard to get the job done. I am proud to endorse him."
"Scott is a highly effective and highly assertive lawyer. Scott and I became friends after we had a case against each other. He was immensely competent and a very tough negotiator, but also a very fair and reasonable guy. I talk to him a lot of about family law issues. He's a terrific lawyer."
"Attorney Goldman's legal knowledge and integrity are second to none. I would highly recommend this attorney."
"I endorse this lawyer. Mr. Goldman is very knowledgeable and experienced in the area of Family Law in Colorado. He has been both a friend and mentor to me since I opened my firm in Colorado. I am honored to know Mr. Goldman."
"I had the pleasure to work with Scott, as an opposing counsel, on a very adversarial and complicated divorce action. This otherwise unwieldy matter maintained a sense of calm and control, for the parties and counsel, in large part due to Scott's practical approach to the conflict and ability to work to achieve reasonable compromise resolutions. Scott works tenaciously for his clients and I would welcome the opportunity to work with him again in the future."

Scott is an extremely talented and gifted trial attorney in the courtroom. I know that he will assertively advocate for each and every client inside and outside of the courtroom. Scott also upholds the ethics of the legal profession."
"Mr. Goldman is one of the most exemplary and extraordinary attorneys that I have encountered in 24 years of practice. Despite being a judge, magistrate, prosecutor, and private attorney for nearly two and a half decades, I continue to learn valuable information from his posts every day. I would highly recommend."
"Mr. Goldman has proven time and time again over the years that he is a masterful attorney in the areas of family law, business law and tax law. I find Mr. Goldman to be an incredible source of knowledge and assistance to other attorneys in our community. I would not hesitate to recommend a client to Mr. Goldman."
"I endorse this lawyer. I find Mr. Goldman to be a highly prepared and knowledgeable attorney. He is compassionate for his clients and a zealous advocate."
"Scott is my go-to referral whenever someone comes to me needing help with litigation. I know that Scott will provide them with the help they need and get the best results possible."
"I fully endorse Mr. Goldman. His tenacity in and out of the courtroom always puts his clients in the best position. He is ready to take the fight anywhere it needs to do, and will do whatever it takes to win. Hiring Mr. Goldman will be the best decision you can make in your case."
