If you are looking for a lawyer that is ONLY after your best interest please don't look any further. Work with and LISTEN to Mr. Goodman's legal advice and your situation will improve. He literally saved my life. I wish I could go into detail. Thank you to Mr. Louis Goodman, Mr. Tom Butzbach, and Ms.Tracey for everything.

Thank you!! You did your part and we worked as a team.
He took the time to review the details, explain the situation clearly, and point me in the right direction. He was patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely cared about helping me make the best decisions. I really appreciate his honesty and professionalism — highly recommend him to anyone seeking legal advice or representation.
I was looking for an attorney to help me help a friend with little resources on a criminal case. I knew she couldn’t afford a private lawyer but thought to reach out to one for advice. I came across Attorney Louis Goodman through my online research. He promptly returned my phone call and spent time giving me advice on how to help my friend and sent me all the information and phone numbers to make sure I could help her with procedural requirements and explaining the deadlines we needed to meet to protect her from some negative consequences. Attorneys are the keepers of justice on both sides and part of that is the willingness to help people. I am so grateful and impressed with his integrity and kindness. Not many attorneys would do the same. I highly recommend him if you are looking for attorney.
I contacted Mr. Goodman’s office regarding an issue with a family member his clerk was very helpful and Mr. Goodman and his partner were very nice and helped me through this situation. I highly recommend this office for your legal needs.
Almost 4 years ago I went to Mr Goodman over a vehicle accident that caused a death. I paid Mr Goodman a one time reasonable fee and figured we would have a resolution in a matter of months. 4 years later with no additional money charged Mr Goodman continued to represent me at hearing after hearing. If you want a lawyer that will stand by you no matter how long it takes, a lawyer that is known and respected by the judges and DAs , Mr Goodman and his co counsel Tom Butzbach are absolutely the best.

Thank you Edward. It’s been my privilege to represent you. You did your part and were resolute with me.
I called them, out of the blue, seeking some advice, and the response from the office was instant. Even Mr. Goodman, himself, called me back before setting up a formal appointment after the long weekend. If you have any worry or concern that you need addressed with urgency, then they are the office for you.
I had a great experience with Louis Goodman and his assistant. They were very professional, knowledgeable, honest and took the time to explain everything clearly. Thank you Mr. Louis Goodman for all your help!
