Sheldon Irvin Goldstein

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.

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

Let me start by pointing out Mr. Goldstein charged me over $23,000 for only 3 months of work, for a routine divorce. Nothing happened during the divorce to justify these charges; no unusual court appearances or anything. We had one hearing for temporary orders, where the judge basically told us that ...he was wasting my money. Mr. Goldstein was planning on keeping my case as adversarial as possible in order to make more cash. He was planning on filing motions for social studies and psych evaluations on my ex for no reason, and to keep the gravy train going as long as he could. There was very little progress made on my case. I was being charged over $200 for answered emails. After August rolled around and I got a bill for over $5000, I fired him. After paying my final bill I hired a great attorney, and he wrapped up my case in less than 3 months and charged me a fifth of what Mr. Goldstein did. He was brilliant and capable. I got my beautiful home back (was never an option with Goldstein), and see my kids more than I would have under Mr. Goldstein's counsel. The damage has been done, I have lost over $27k because of him, and I am not a wealthy man by any means. I would advise anyone considering hiring him to run far, far away...

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.
