Kathryn J Goff

I am forever grateful that I worked with Katie Goff through my divorce. I had no idea what I needed and Katie helped to put me on the right path and guided me the entire way. She's friendly and kind in her approach, I felt she empathized with my situation. She is also very experienced so I felt like ...I was in good hands. She included me in all communications and I really appreciated the transparency. She helped me to let go of petty things, which helped me be a better person through a difficult situation. We focused on what mattered most and I was glad with the outcome. I'm very glad to have worked with Katie!

Kathryn Goff took my case (post divorce: seeking termination of maintenance) because she believed it had merit. That was important to me and made a difference when we ended up having to go to court for a final judgment. Naturally, you hope for a quick settlement, but Kathryn's experience and knowl...edge brought us over the long road to a winning position and helped me face the fact that a judge's ruling, like an opponent's position, must be met with logic and principles. Kathryn's calm, clear and measured approach took us much further than my limited understanding of the case could foreseen. She did a great job of guiding me through the process and bringing about a favorable judgment in the end. During the time we worked together on my case, I experienced considerable frustration and a strong desire to "put this thing behind me". Kathryn kept us on track and ultimately gave us a win. Our win was never assured, nor was the final outcome all that I had hoped and wanted, but what we got was worth the effort and cost and I feel assured that Kathryn's approach and the great support of Goff & Goff's paralegal made all the difference.

I worked with Katie Goff on my divorce case, and was very pleased, both with the results and the cost effectiveness of her services. She is highly experienced, able to tackle a complex intercontinental divorce case, and has good working relationships with both the judge and the two attorneys we faced...--so important for getting a good settlement. Both tough and personable, she exemplified the respectful, professional qualities I was looking for in a divorce attorney.

I hired Katie based off of a Legal Shield referral. I was able to get a discount on the total retainer fee for my child custody case. She was able to make her fees back by charging for every single email to include the ones I asked her to stop corresponding with from my ex-husband. She was ill prepar...ed and even spelled my daughter's name wrong initially on a motion. I felt as though I was working harder than she was. I had just had a new baby and she continuously asked me for more paperwork and for information in separate emails (of which she charged me for each follow up). She was argumentative with me and she also knew that I was lower income on my military pay, but continued to charge me even after I fired her because I asked a question. She did absolutely nothing for me in my case aside from taught me a very expensive lesson on shopping around for lawyers who are sincerely compassionate about their client's heartaches. I'm a victim of domestic violence and I felt revictimized by her lack of empathy and by the dollar amount that was attached to every millisecond of her time.
