No Knowledge of Law, lack of ethics in practice and billing

No knowledge of law and just filling meaningless motions to charge client but nice tie and car. Check his education and then you would not make same mistake as me. His best artistic knowledge is that he field to exclude a marriage property in CA a community property state in divorce case in TX anot...her community property state. You should be there to see how he made fool of himself in court and judge's laugh

This person was not a client of our firm. The comments stated do not match any case we have had. This is a fraudulent review.

Read the reviews before hiring this laywer

I wish I had seen these previous reviews before I hired him. Same things happened , Does not have a good knowledge of the law, and it's all about the money and how much he can aqueeze you for. Let him finish up the divorce and custody just to get it over with and hired another attorney and gained ful...l custody of my children , which he said would never happen and it was done in less time and alot less money.

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
