Not just a personal injury attorney

Even though Barry is mostly a personal injury lawyer, this was not the reason I consulted him. Regardless, he was extremely helpful and gave me sound advice that ultimately helped me resolve my legal issues without it escalating or causing me more stress. I highly recommend even just speaking with hi...m with your legal concern because chances are he can help you!

Finally, a personal injury lawyer who actually cares about his clients.

Barry P. Goldberg actually flips the narrative of what personal injury lawyers are perceived to be. His staff is outstanding! they put me through to Barry for an insurance question even if I didn't have a case with them. Even though I wasn't his client, he still took the time to answer my legal quest...ion. Big props to them. Finally, a personal injury lawyer who doesn't just care about the money. A genuinely good lawyer and a good guy! If you have an accident, I will NOT HESITATE to go to Barry.

"In the world of personal injury litigation and practice we all know the real attorneys who do good work vs. those who are just in it for the quick buck. The quick buck attorneys give personal injury Trial Lawyers a black eye because they cut corners, provide poor representation & do things the rest of us abhor all to put money in their pockets as quickly as possible, usually to the detriment of the client. The good news is there are also attorneys out there, like Super Lawyer Barry Goldberg, who do it the right way and not only help rehabilitate the poor image personal injury attorneys have by his devotion to being the best attorney he can be, which translates to representing his clients very well, but also furthers our collective efforts in making sure the system works for those who are injured. If anyone is need of a good, ethical, hard working attorney to help them with a personal injury claim in the Woodland Hills area and beyond, call Barry Goldberg; you won't be disappointed."
