Excellent Law Firm

I didn't know this was such a powerhouse of a law firm until after I retained them to handle my divorce. The thing I liked best about dealing with them was they always treated me like a person, not just an account or client. The entire staff is that way. I especially enjoyed meeting with Mr. Goldstei...n because he was very understanding and compassionate. Regardless of how bleak I thought my situation was, I felt reassured and confident after meeting with him. During the process of my divorce I also learned that G&S worked in many other legal disciplines including wills, trusts and estate matters, Immigration, and criminal law. The attorneys assigned to my case handled all of it competently and professionally. In addition to handling family law, one of them had been a prosecutor, another was well versed in immigration. About the only thing they don't handle is real estate. I highly recommend this firm. Regardless of the type of legal matter, if it's handled by Goldstein & Scopellite I don't think you can retain anyone better.

Excellent Lawyer

Mr. Goldstein helped guide me through a difficult time. Custody battle of my 2 kids. He was very knowledgeable and helped me legally as well as gave some great personal advice. He definitely seems to really care about his clients.

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.

Excellent Attorney who cares!!!

I hired Mr. Goldstein to handle my legal matters including my business formation, my family law case and a state agency case. I had hired other lawyers previously who did not do what they said they were going to do. Mr Goldstein was able to implement, resolve and win all of my cases. He redponded t...o my calls and did not drop the ball in redponding and submitting evidence as needed. I would hire him again. Thank you.

Mr. Godlstein got me what I wanted, he does what he said, told me what to expect and he cares

I recently hired this firm, in the year 2014, to help me with my complex custody battle that stems over two states and for the last several years. This firm is still handling my case. However, since I hired them and they took over, I have made great progress. I had been to several other lawyers wh...o really messed up my case and hurt my and my children's relationship, as I was not able to see my children for several years. Now I have a continuous relationship and see my children regularly and I am rebuilding my relationship with them. I am still fighting for custody of them. Yes, this case has cost me a pretty penny, but it has been worth it. We are getting much closer to what I should have been given years ago. I would highly recommend Mr. Goldstein and Ms. Scopellite and their firm to anyone. They know how to litigate and they care.
