Turned the Case Around

I hired "Goldstein and Scopellite" about two years ago to take over as counsel in a complex litigation matter that was not going favorably. The case involved four attorneys and had many parties. When they took over the case, they were able to quickly review the lengthy file, develop a strategy to fi...x initial issues that were critical, and then develop a long-term strategy to win the case, which never would have happened if I had not hired them. Mr. Goldstein and Ms. Scopellite, the partners of the firm, are professional lawyers who actually care about your case, just like they say they do on their website. They were attentive, personable, and helped me to understand the process much better than I did before hiring them. I would highly recommend using this law firm and their services if you have an on-going case that is not going well. They can help turn things completely around. I would also recommend hiring them for any new legal matter; I wish I had hired them in the first place.

Business case

Our small firm was based in Washington State. We were named a third party in a lawsuit filed in Texas. The two main contesting parties were a 24 billion dollar firm and a 3 billion dollar firm. Our firm sold 1 million dollars worth of products a year. We were ants among giants with only Goldstein a...nd Scopellite to protect us. Following is the email I wrote to Sheldon upon completion of the case in 2015. Hi Sheldon: This message is overdue. This is because it is hard to find the words to express our gratitude for protecting us during the last 3 ½ years. To say that the entire experience was foreign, stressful, scary and financially devastating would be an understatement. We have never been directly involved in any kind of legal action and so did not know what to expect at any stage of this entire proceeding. We were able to take a great amount of comfort in knowing that you were there, standing in front of us, as a protector. I know from my visit with you that you do this for battered women and I assume all kinds of other legal proceedings. I hope you take immense satisfaction in knowing that you are bettering, and protecting, the lives of people. Anyone can make money. To me, it looks like you are doing well and deserve it. Still to help others is a great service that not many perform. Though it was stressful, I look back fondly at the two days I spent with you. I consider you a unique and talented individual. To have succeeded in two very different careers is quite an accomplishment. As a sales person for many years I have met many people. I count you as one of the most interesting and nicest people I have come across. My wife, Gena, wants me to pass on her gratitude. She saw the stress in me and also took comfort knowing you were helping us. I know that you always have a full case load and need to move on. That said, I hope you will not forget me and count me as a friend as well as a past client. Finding words difficult, let me just close by saying Thank You. Mike and Gena

Goldstein & Scopellite, PC is a great law firm - I agree that you should hire them if you need a good lawyer

I can't say enough about this firm Goldstein & Scopellite, PC. The questions asked on Avvo about how I would rate this firm and my answers pretty much say it all. FIVE STARS !!!!! The firm is trustworthy and handled my financial documents with confidentiality. Their entire staff was responsive; all... of their attorneys were very knowledgeable; they kept me informed and they won my case. Hire them if you need a good attorney and a great firm. Thank you.
