I was having a difficult time with my divorce and was forced to switch attorneys. I hired Bryan and immediately things began to move along; he made the process clear, straight forward and I understood my options and what needed to be done to move forward. He kept things moving ahead by working tirelessly on my behalf and was an honest and fair lawyer. He didn't promise me things he couldn't deliver and he more than delivered on the things he said he would. Divorce is never easy but I really felt Bryan was on my team and made a painful process easier to navigate.
I am a fellow New York lawyer, and retained Bryan in a personal matter (which is outside my wheelhouse). He was great - professional, courteous, knowledgeable, responsive, and - most important - he achieved results. Everything one would want in a lawyer. Would 100% recommend.
Bryan is an excellent lawyer. He was able to bring to a conclusion a very long and expensive ordeal buy getting what needed to be done , Done and Finalized! My process started 2 years ago and he was able to finalize my case withing months. I would recommend him highly.
Mr. Goldstein handled my divorce. My ex-spouse is a difficult individual with significant mental health issues which came through during the process as he was opposed to the divorce, and a Final RO was in place prior to my hiring Bryan--he simply knew how to handle it all professionally, knowledgeably, efficiently, and with the grace of experience.
Despite my doubts of the industry in general, I couldn’t have asked for better representation. He was a friend who fought for me, but was also empathetic given the delicate circumstances. And in industry that’s compensated by the hour, Bryan was incredibly efficient and reasonable, which I can’t say for his counterpart, let alone other options we had looked at.
Bryan helped me through an incredibly difficult time navigating my divorce. He is very warm, easy to talk to, and funny. I appreciated how direct he was and also trusted that he wasn't going to encourage me to draw things out if he didn't think it was worth it. I highly recommend him if you are looking for a divorce attorney that specializes in same-sex marriages.
Bryan Goldstein was an excellent attorney for my case. He is a great communicator and very easy to talk to which made a big difference to me. Everything was handled professionally and swiftly without one minute of additional unnecessary billing accrued, which is sadly not always the case with many other attorneys. I was very lucky to have found him.
Bryan Goldstein did a great job for me and my (same-sex) divorce. He is smart, fierce, and tenacious. I'd recommend him for anyone who needs a family lawyer, especially if you need someone who is knowledgeable about the latest in LGBTQ family law.
Bryan was very helpful in helping me navigate through the process of getting divorced. He is very down-to-earth and pragmatic. I would highly recommend him.
Bryan is an excellent attorney. I used him to draft my prenup and he made what would be an uncomfortable process fairly seamless and comfortable for both me and my husband. He is very professional as well as easy going and approachable. I highly recommend him!
