The moment I met Ruth I felt completely comfortable with her. Our first meeting instilled a confidence that she would be the best person to follow through with taking care of our divorce. As we worked through the process, I continued to admire her professionalism and commitment in doing the best for our situation. I am beyond grateful for the work that she has done and really consider her a friend! Richard

Can’t tell you to stay away from this attorney enough. She not only won’t fight for you she fights for the OTHER person. She knows nothing about Medicare and gave me council to allow my millionaire ex to file her taxes jointly. I fought against it very hard, but it was introduced at the very end. I was told the whole thing was at risk if I blocked it from happening. Now I’m being charged $500 a month for Medicare when I shouldn’t be at all. When I called to inform her of the massive mistake I was told how easy of a fix it was and that’s it’s no big deal. My Christmas with my daughter got ruined because they took retro from my check, but it’s no big deal. Well, it turns out it’s a huge deal to fix and it’s going to cost me even more. She passed the buck when confronted. I didn’t even have enough food for the month because of her unwillingness to fight on one thing. The worst thing she did was gang up on me with the social worker in our case. They both interrogated me for over an hour trying to get me to “walk back” my statement that the social worker had essentially coerced me into signing the parenting plan. Instead of believing me and fighting for me they both decided to try and get me to lie. I refused, and I’m glad I did. It turned out the social worker was lying, texted me accidentally admitting it in the middle of the interrogation, and quit the case the following Monday. I’m telling you coillabrative divorce is a scam to rob the poor of any opportunity to be heard. Your voice gets completely stomped on. Do not do it! Go to trial. Definitely do not hire this attorney. She’ll seem great at first, but her lack of knowledge will hurt you severely. Happy New Year.

I recently had the privilege of working with Ruth Goldner on a complex custody case, and I cannot speak highly enough of her expertise and dedication. From the outset, she demonstrated a level of professionalism and compassion that immediately put me at ease during what was a highly stressful time. Ruth was not only thorough in her approach, but also exceptionally communicative and transparent throughout the entire process. She took the time to explain every step of the legal proceedings, ensuring I fully understood my options and the potential outcomes. Her transparency gave me a sense of control and confidence, which was invaluable during such an emotionally charged situation. What truly sets Ruth apart is her genuine kindness and commitment to her clients. She listened attentively to my concerns and priorities, making me feel truly heard and understood. Her empathy combined with her unwavering dedication to my case reassured me that I was in the best possible hands. Moreover, Ruth is incredibly detail-oriented, leaving no stone unturned in preparing for the case. Her meticulous approach ensured that every aspect was thoroughly addressed, which ultimately led to a successful resolution. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Ruth to anyone in need of a family law attorney. Her professionalism, communication skills, transparency, and kindness make her an outstanding advocate. She not only navigated the legal complexities with expertise but also provided the emotional support that was crucial throughout the process. Working with Ruth was a privilege, and I am immensely grateful for her guidance during a challenging time in my life.

David is really professional and good at what he does. Super friendly, respectful, clear cut communication, flexible for his clients. The paralegal who I was contacting with for schedule and other stuff is also very friendly, helpful and eager to answer any questions. I would recommend.

Ruth is awesome!! She is focused on getting the job done! Her primary focus is you and doing what is in your best interest!

I hired Ruth Goldner in December of 2017 to represent me in my custody case, and I cannot say enough great things about her. My divorce was final back in 2010 but my ex-wife still has not let go of her bitterness and has now brought me back to court twice to try taking away the joint custody I was awarded. This time was due to a relocation I made for work, however to strengthen her case, she fabricated allegations and implied several negative things about me. Ruth listened to what I had to say, reviewed my divorce settlement, and saw right through those allegations. She assured me she would represent me to the best of her ability and to say she undersold herself is an understatement. Her insight, intellect, writing skills, and articulation are nothing short of masterful. She presents herself professionally and even when faced with ludicrous challenges and accusations from opposing counsel, she maintained her composure (also ensuring I did the same) and powered through it. Her level of communication before and after each court appearance is unrivaled. Typically clients deal with paralegals for these matters, however Ruth was in direct contact with me throughout the entire 6 month process via phone, text, or email. She made sure I received copies of all documents whether drafted by opposing counsel, herself, or the Friend of the Court and made sure I understood them. She also asked for approval and review of any documents she was drafting on my behalf rather than assume she knows what was best for my daughter and I because she’s an attorney and I’m not. She never once made me feel as though I was below her like other attorneys that I have dealt with do. Billing is extremely fair and borderline generous. She’s not from a massive firm that treats their clients as a Case Number, she truly cared about the outcome in my case and there’s no doubt that is the case with all of her clients. Be open, honest, and up front about all matters in your case so as not to allow sudden surprises to surface in court and she will impress you the way she did me, I highly recommend Ruth Goldner. From the bottom of my heart, I cannot thank you enough.

They responded quickly on a time sensitive matter and worked all weekend to make sure my motion would go smoothly. They were smart, polite, accommodating, and had fair pricing.They also have the cutest office and were nothing but professionals! Thank you Ruth and David! I will be using you guys again!
