We, on the other hand, focus our law practice on getting to know each client and we will be working on his or her case from start to end. We have a sense of humor, and we enjoy building a long-lasting relationship with our clients by communicating with them, and getting to know them as individuals with unique needs.
If you have any estate planning, administration or litigation issues, please do not hesitate to contact us. We have found that clients appreciate our honesty, straight nature and communication with them. When you work with us, you will be dealing with someone who is not just experienced and knowledgeable; but someone who you can easily talk to about your issues and concerns.
Message from Edward:
I love being helpful. I enjoy working through people's problems and using my experience and training to mitigate or eliminate them. I do not work for people; I work with them. Anything we do we do together. In the end, the life most impacted by your case is yours. If you think I can communicate with you clearly and help you with a problem, feel free to contact me to discuss your issue.
I am not a typical attorney. I am friendly, enjoy my work and like being helpful. Experience and focus on one area of law for my entire career allow me to efficiently and expertly counsel my clients about their legal issues. Good communication and understanding of a client's needs matter to me.

My knight
My father died and his will was challenged. I was scared and my lawyer who just did probate said she could not defend the will. I was referred to Edward by a lawyer friend who does appeal law. Edward was kind to me and fought hard to defend my dad's will. He won for me everything. No settlement becau...

Our family's lawyer for three generations
My grandmother, who passed away 10 years, found Ed by referral. He did her trust. When she passed, my mother was sued by her sister who wanted grandma's property (farms). Ed defended the trust successfully, not only winning the case but making sure my mom was ok during the entire process. Ed then did...
"Trust and estate litigation is difficult in any situation, and attorneys can either inflame the issues or work to cut to the chase. Although Ed and I have been on opposite sides of clients' issues, I have found Ed to be able incredibly reasonable and motivated to deal with the real issues."
"When referring a friend or client, the firm you refer to can have a significant reflection on you. Ed is one of the few lawyers in town I have nearly blind confidence in. I have referred my family,my closest friends, and most important clients who have all expressed profound appreciation. He is a creative problem solver who achieves tremendous results for his clients."
"I have had the pleasure of working with Ed recently on a rather involved trust and probate administration case. Though Ed and I each have represented opposing parties we have been able to work together to help both of our clients. He is not looking to create unnecessary attorney fees as some attorneys seem to do in cases like this. He has worked diligently to represent his client's best interests while factoring in the practical side of things including family harmony. It has been a pleasure working with Ed on this matter and look forward to many more such opportunities in the future."
"Edward Goldkuhl is an intelligent, honest, friendly, and ethical lawyer who truly cares about his clients and is committed to providing quality legal representation. The lawyer I recommend to friends, family, and clients when they need someone in the area of probate, trust, and estate planning."
