Louis J. Goodman

Excellent support from Mr. Goodman. He works with his clients direct, and provides them the tools to contact him going forward. His courtroom manner is excellent and his reputation and knowledge of the legal system in Alameda County makes him the go to lawyer for the East Bay Area. Mr. Goodman was... hired to work on a drug/weapons charge. He was very good to meet with during the case and provided excellent courtroom defense to help with a very positive outcome. I strongly encourage anyone needing a very good lawyer to seek Mr. Goodman's help!

There are certainly quite a number of attorneys out there who are willing to put clients’ needs and rights first and Mr. Goodman is certainly one of this type of attorneys. Mr. Goodman is kind, compassionate, understanding, and helpful as a human being and is experienced, knowledgeable, and profes...sional as an attorney. I will highly recommend his services to anyone who is in need of service from a criminal defense attorney in Bay Area. Thank you Mr. Goodman and you well deserve all those 5-star reviews.

Exceptional attorney all around! Mr. Goodman's accessibility and honesty throughout proceedings was refreshing, if not a much needed comfort, during a trying time. Staff members mirrored Mr. Goodman's professionalism at every turn, relaying messages promptly and handling all client communication with... unmatched regard. Ultimately, it was the degree of dignity and individualized care given my case that affords greatest praise. In addition to no cost consultation, Mr. Goodman works WITH clients in as hands-on (or -off) a fashion as desired. I was given ample opportunity to provide incident background and character references to counterbalance the steep claims against me. Likewise, clients can expect extensive administrative support in the form of regular appearance reminders, updates and Mr. Goodman's skilled expertise to guide them through court proceedings. Having completed a nominal *3 months community service* in the face of a proposed 11-years in state prison, I cannot began to thank Mr. Goodman!

Mr. Goodman stands out among the criminal defense bar. He is an excellent attorney who keeps current on the law and can explain complex concepts to the client in a friendly, professional way that puts you at ease. He is good communicating with the client and knows what to do to get the best possibl...e outcome in court. Top notch!

Mr. Goodman represented me 17 years ago when I was in High School for a difficult situation. He was so easy to work with, very easy to talk to, extremely wise and insightful. He represented me in court several times and helped to have my case dismissed. I recently connected with him to ask questions ...regarding my case from 17 years ago and he gladly helped me over the phone (I called him several times) with no charge. I was so impressed that he remembered me and my case from that long ago! Mr. Goodman is a gem and truly a pleasure to work with.
