Nelson W.S. Goo

I personally just want to thank Mr. Goo for fighting unconditionally for my innocence. I would highly recommend Nelson Goo to everyone who is going through legal issues. I have learned so much from Nelson. He has over 40 years of experience in his profession as a lawyer. Nelson helped me so much with... my life I have now. Words can’t express how grateful I am for Mr. Nelson Goo being my attorney as I went through my legal issues and my trial when I was facing life without parole. Mahalo Nelson, Thank you so much!!!

"I had read the reviews after I hired Nelson Goo, but I had to go on my gut instinct. I felt he led me in the most positive way to win my cases. I had regular email contact with him, and I found all the information he requested, and he delivered it in a very professional manner. I trusted him, an...d I am thankful that I did. I had an assault case in family court dropped by the prosecutor before it ever went to trail, and I had my TRO dismissed by the plaintive before we even had to defend the case, because he played the cases moment by moment, listening to me when I gave suggestions, and looked for the weaknesses in the cases. He was prepared and clam, when I was nervous and scared. I am a very happy that I trusted him. I hope this response helps whoever reads this knowing that not all people who win, write their responses, it is usually the ones who are frustrated and upset. Not all cases can be won just because you want them to be won, it takes evidence and it takes knowing how to present the evidence. I felt Nelson listened to me, and helped direct me in the best possible way I could go to beat these cases. I had listened to two other lawyers before I picked Nelson, and you should do the same thing before you choose a lawyer. Let them spell out what they think they can do for you, before you make a choice. Nelson told me he could get the case dropped, and he did it. He told me what I wanted to hear, but he explained why he thought he could win. Then I got him all the evidence he needed, I helped him, i didn't depend on him to get the evidence. I took part in my case. I got the phone records, I took the voice messages and put them on CD's, and I took the photos to the Costco and had them enlarged. Nelson told me what I needed to do, and I did it. I didn't sit back and expect him to do all the work and then wonder why I lost the case when I was paying him. I paid him for his experience in the court room, and then I worked on my case just as hard as he did. I needed a voice of reason and he seemed to understand the courts and how they were going to respond. I am posting this to let others know that he does do good work."

When i first met Nelson Goo he seemed like the right Lawyer for me. Told me everything i wanted to hear but once hired all that he said went right out the window. After hiring Nelson and appearing in court for preliminary hearings and early phases of court procedures i started noticing Nelson wasnt d...oing anything he said he'd do and when questioned about it his favorite response to me was "trust me" and "dont worry". Which i did and now regret totally. I can compare it to Joe Montana telling Jerry Rice to run a 3 and out and Jerry runs a 7 and in instead but gets back to the huddle and says "throw it to me again dont worry." And repeats to run the wrong route again to say one more time "trust me. " And i did ... unfortunately to my expense. When i hired Nelson Goo i was facing an Assault 2 felony and a TRO violation which i had many legs to stand on if taken to trial which i was told we were prepared to do if need be. That was not really his intensions. Long story short i found myself appearing to court one morning where Nelson met me at the door 5m before and stunned me by showing me the response from prosecution on a plea deal which i had 5m to decide and initial weather i wanted to take the deal or go to trial on this case. The plea deal was Plead Guilty to Assault2 felony and they drop the misdemeanor charges. Nelson insisted i take the deal. I didnt feel right about it at all. I went in facing Assault 2 felony and now pleading to Assault 2 felony is supposed to be a deal? I didnt need a Lawyer to get that kind of service. I could of done that on my own. So rushed into court i found myself pleading guilty to Assault2 felony which im still blown away by. Nelson doesnt want to fight for your best interest if it means more work for him. Even though he has been paid good money to him its not enough to really care about his clients best interest. After realizing the huge mistake ive made i sought other councils advice and fired Nelson Goo. Im now trying to see how i can better my situation before sentencing with new defense behind me and hoping that my life is not ruined by the lazy deceitful unprofessional ways of a attorney named Nelson Goo. I would not wish the experience i been through upon anyone. To me its the highest form of betrayal to higher a professional to trust with your future and life and they lead you down the road of destruction.
