“I went into my divorce process with the goal of ending my marriage as quickly, and ethically, as possible. Andrea found alternate solutions when things were going to be held up whether it be through negotiations on the settlement or streamlining/fast tracking the process at the end. Andrea found creative solutions when I, or the process, felt stuck. I felt she was an advocate for me and my needs, fighting for me and what I was owed, especially at those moments I had wanted to let go and give up. She answered my emails with empathy, kindness, fairness, logic, and most importantly, the law. And lastly, she truly heard my goals of this process and helped me achieve them to the best of her ability (based on the circumstances that were in our control). I’m still (pleasantly) shocked we were able to complete my divorce within the year.”

“Andrea Barr Goldman is an exceptional and caring lawyer. She has worked with us in our child custody over the last few years. She is kind, trustworthy and conscientious on both a personal and professional level. Andrea is a mother of two herself and is very knowledgeable about what is best for the child(ren) involved and has always been sensitive to all people involved in the custody. I highly recommend Andrea as a family lawyer.”

“It’s been said that winning is everything; but it isn’t when victory is achieved through ruthless and unprincipled means. Andrea Goldman is different. In lieu of tabloid fodder and dramatic histrionics to present a case, her airtight logic, exhaustive research (along with impeccable preparation) to cite cold, hard facts and mettle-tested grit from two decades worth of courtroom experience provide a tenacious and determined voice on your behalf. Family is at the forefront of Ms. Goldman’s ethos — herself being a wife and mother — and the compassion and integrity she brings to her clients always mean you are a part of her family.”

“I’m quite happy . . . Just that it feels like things are how they should be and it looks like we might stay out of court for a while. ... Thank you for all the hours you have toiled and brain space that you have given to this outcome. ... You were an absolute bad ass in court. Despite all our time in court, I’ve never had the whole “give your arguments” experience . . . .and you were awesome . . ..it was quite a challenge to pull in all the different threads of craziness into one argument, but you nailed it. So, again, thank you.”
