Great experience

Business lease review. First time going through this type of contract process. Marc took his time and explained all the things I didn't understand and why it is/is not beneficial.

Full confidence: fast, efficient, knowledgeable, and steady

In the midst of my drowning in paperwork to start my nonprofit (501c3), Marc helped the mound of work feel like it could be accomplished. He answered my questions, and is working alongside our team to get this nonprofit to existence. He knew the answers and the people to connect with for the financia...l side. And he has helped draft many documents for our legal needs in preparing the everyday movements of the nonprofit. He knows what he is talking about. I feel levels of less stress knowing I have him on my team.

Business Sale

Marc provided unfailing back-up for the somewhat tangled sale of a portion of our business. Having him on board to handle the sprawling sale documents took a huge load off our shoulders and let us concentrate on the substance and the details of what we were doing. His unfailing grasp of the agreeme...nts was greatly reassuring, and his counsel on issues was useful and timely. Marc was always available and responsive when we needed his input.

Uncompleted construction work

I hired to rebuild my house after fire did a shoddy job. I pointed this out to my previous lawyer who for reasons best known to him failed to protect my interest by not taking the contractor to task. I withheld final payment demanding that the contractor correct and complete various tasks he mu...st do as part of scope of work. My then lawyer agreed with the contractor that I should find some else to do the job and even pay for the incomplete work and mistakes made by the contractor. I stood my ground and withheld final payment until corrections were made. The contractor got a lawyer who wrote me a nice letter stating what would happen to me should I fail to make payments. A friend told me about Mr. Marc Goldsen, I contacted Mr. Goldsen and secured his services. Mr. Goldsen took my case and wrote my contractor’s lawyer a much nicer letter. In short, the contractor’s lawyer saw the light and convinced his client, the contractor to finish the work before getting paid. What was amazing was the speed it took Mr. Goldsen to get the other side to fold. He even got the contractor to pay part of my legal fees. Mr. Goldsen is amazing

  • 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.
