Highly recommend

Janet Goldstein was my whistle-blower attorney and I could not be more pleased. She is honest, hardworking and not only talks the talk, but walks the walk. She took on my case, and was not only kind and understanding, but she is one accomplished lawyer to have on your side. She walked me through the ...whole False Claims Act process, start to finish, guiding me every step of the way. The end result was a great win. Ms Goldstein knows her stuff and is unbelievably relentless. I highly recommend her and am highly satisfied with her work on my case.

Outstanding !

If I am ever in need of legal assistance in the future, my first call would be to Janet. In my case we dealt with both a Wrongful Termination and a Qui Tam Case. I have to say that at all times I knew that noone could have fought more vigorously on my behalf. Both cases were brought to a satisfa...ctory conclusion and I am forever grateful for the assistance that was provided to me. When you are a little guy in a struggle with the big guys you need some firepower in your corner and I certainly had that - in spades. Janet was a pleasure to deal with throughout and I never doubted for a second that I had the best team in my corner. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending this lawyer to anyone. Thank you very much Janet, I am forever in your debt.

  • 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.
