Shoudn't be a practicing lawyer

If I could give a worse review I would. From the start this Woman was disorganized and incompetent. She made excuses upon excuses as to why she couldn't be reached for weeks on end, mis-led or flat out lied about court filings, misplaced files and much more. Fortunately my family was able to get a...nother attorney to pick up my late mother's estate and clean up the mess that she made of the case which had been going on for 4 years and should have been done long ago. Stay as far away as possible. Jennifer do not bother replying to try and save face.

Harassment on social media

I am not a customer, but only due to reviewing her social media account and seeing posts where she harassed other folks with differing political views. This made my decision for me. Since then it has been removed - must have caused problems for her.

Keep looking, stay away!

Stay away. She missed court appointments with no warning, delayed my case by months with an S, made excuses to no end, didn't return paperwork to opposing council, hard to get a hold of, just a total mess! Had to fire her and get another attorney. No money back, all gone. Thanks again Jennifer!!

I am so sorry that you had a bad experience. In the years since handling your case, I have made concerted efforts to provide impeccable customer service to my clients. I think it is important to admit our shortcomings and to strive to be better. So thank you for the review so that I can continue to work towards improving myself and my client relations.

From Opposing Counsel

Ms. Goldsmith is a formidable lawyer. I have been a lawyer nearly 20 years longer than she has -- and found her organized, VERY prepared and quite adept in the courtroom. The judge complimented us in our professionalism and that we kept the "decency level" high in what could have been a nasty custo...dy trial. She won the trial and was gracious and accommadating in pre- and post-trial negotiations. Impressive lawyer.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
