I rarely write reviews, but after my experience with Goldberg Jones, I felt compelled to share how…read moregrateful I am for the outstanding representation I received especially from attorney Svetlana Couture. From the very beginning, Svetlana demonstrated an incredible level of professionalism, preparation, and dedication. I was facing one of the most difficult and stressful situations of my life, and her strategic approach immediately gave me confidence that I had the right advocate in my corner. She remained focused on the facts, stayed several steps ahead throughout the process, and consistently provided honest, straightforward guidance. What impressed me most was her ability to analyze every aspect of the case, anticipate challenges before they arose, and execute a clear plan. Thanks to her hard work and unwavering advocacy, the temporary restraining order matter against me was ultimately dismissed. Throughout the entire process, she helped me stay patient, trust the process, and remain focused on the bigger picture. I also want to recognize Goldberg Jones as a firm. In a legal system that often feels tilted in favor of women and mothers, Goldberg Jones genuinely stands up for men's and fathers' rights. They understand the challenges fathers face and are committed to ensuring their clients receive fair treatment and strong representation. That commitment was evident in every interaction I had with the firm. Successful outcomes like mine do not happen by accident. They are the result of countless hours of preparation, attention to detail, and attorneys who truly care about their clients. Svetlana Couture exemplifies all of those qualities. I am incredibly grateful for everything Svetlana and the team at Goldberg Jones did for me and my family. If you are a father or man looking for knowledgeable, dedicated, and effective legal representation, I highly recommend Goldberg Jones and, in particular, Svetlana Couture. Thank you again for everything.

I hired Matt Blado to represent me in a Gilmore election (a case that allows an ex spouse to…read morecollect their share of the pension should the other party refuse to retire). He frequently didn't respond to me during the process. Before our court hearing I reached out multiple times trying to make sure he was ready with the expert witness he had me hire and pay for. Our very first court appearance he had to postpone because he failed to serve my ex! Then there was another hearing that was asked for another exemption. Zero response until a week before the hearing. I get a frantic call from Matt encouraging me to settle for less than half of what I would get in court! I refused. He gave me some story as to why it was in my best interest to take the 50%. Then he came back and said my ex was refusing that amount and it would be less than 30% of what I was entitled to, however his firm would make up the difference. HUGE RED FLAG and alarm bells went off! I work for a professional services company and we do NOT pay our clients. Then the next email I get is from an associate at his firm sending me a response filing by my ex's attorney. It detailed out Matt's failure to respond to settlement negotiations, and failing to file MY witness list (so I have NO expert) in trial. The court filing was clear this guy had not done a thing to help my case and it was all detailed out for the judge. I cried! I had waited over a year with his delays and extensions he requested on my case and now I have no chance of winning and zero faith in his ability to represent me. I took his offer as long as he put in writing to pay me the money to bring me to 50%. He said he would write off the attorney costs (well I certainly expected that since he screwed up the whole thing!) and he said he cut me a check within X number of days. Well that came and went. No money. Then he sends me a release he wants me to sign that says I won't discuss his screw ups! Absolutely NOT! He cost me money and he let my ex get away with even more BS. That was an insult on top of the injury he caused me. I filed a complaint with the state bar and I hired an attorney to represent me against Matt. I didn't quite get the amount I would have from my ex, but I still get to warn other people to run. This guy misses every deadline and can't even serve notice to the opposing counsel! Do yourself a favor and don't hire Matt Blado.

I did not feel respected and like my time was worth while. I told him my occupation, therefore not making much money, and he still charged for every. Little. Thing.

My trust attorney recommended Mr. Shular. He seemed professional and competent. The case dragged on…read morefor several years and was, I thought, resolved. Years later I discovered that a "divorce decree" had not been issued. Still later, I attained retirement age and the absence of a "divorce decree" became a roadblock, I needed to rectify the issue to collect my pension. Mr. Shular provided me with a copy of some kind of note from the court which my former employer rejected. Not acceptable. Long story short, I had to engage ANOTHER attorney and ended up spending as much money as I had with Mr. Shular to get a court date and obtain paperwork, the missing "divorce decree" to collect my pension. So I am not able to recommend Mr. Shular. It was a train wreck. Again, he seemed competent. I cannot explain why he, in a word, failed to perform initially and later failed to correct his actions, leaving me up a creek. "Disappointed" is not a strong enough word.

The exhibits and case law that he presented were so abundant that they didn't have anything to counter, had no push back, and accepted our offer. As far as billing, every month I would get a detailed accounting of the work he would put in on my case, matching the accounting I had recorded, which made me trust he wasn't padding the bills like most attorneys do. I am so grateful I found him and would give him as many stars as they would allow me to give.
