Client Reviews
"Sam helped us draft the terms of service and privacy policy for our new website. As a new business, we had a ton of questions and John went out of his way to explain everything in terms that we could understand. We will definitely use John again as our business grows."
"Sam was always clear and upfront with the process, timelines, and budget items. He was able to quickly determine the best course of action to restructure my llc from one state to another. I would highly recommend Sam to anyone who needs legal work completed for their business."
"Nice, clear and very responsive, highly recommend"
"This was a great experience with Sam. Sam communicated clearly, had great response time, listened, and was very "present" within our conversations. He never tried to rush me off the phone or treated me in a dismissive way as some other lawyers have done in the past. He would be a great attorney to work with in my opinion."
"Sam was extremely straight forward and helped me with the restructuring of my LLC. Will definitely be using him again in the future!"
"When I was a residential tenant and felt I was being mistreated by my landlord and management company, I contacted Mr. Goldstein. He was knowledgeable about my general rights as a tenant and also the specific parameters of my lease. He helped me to formally document violations, reduce my rent while living there, and ultimately break the lease early. I would recommend Mr. Goldstein to anyone needing assistance in defending their tenant rights."
