He took over my case from another lawyer and did all the necessary background information needed. He was compassionate and carefully reviewed my situation and was ultimately successful in court on my case.

First, of let me start by saying Mr goodhines is the best lawyer out there soon as I contacted him, he got right to work he even gave me his personal number for me to contact him he even worked with me on his fees I was locked up for trafficking and intent to distribute he explained to me my options and what we needed to do he filled for a motion to suppress all evidence and a motion to dismiss the case took about a year when it was time for the hearing it was like an episode out of law and order the way he worked his magic after it was set and done my case was dismissed thanks to Mr goodhines I will highly recommend him to any one that is facing any type of criminal charges. Thanks for going all the way in for me he met all my expectations and for that I am thankful thanks again Mr goodhines

My son was involved in a motor vehicle stop in which one of the passengers had drugs on him. The police charged everyone in the car with the drugs, even though no one knew what the other person had on him at the time. Attorney Goodhines met with us and took time to carefully listen to us as my son explained what had happened. Mr. Goodhines was patient, and made sure we gave him all of the details of our son's case. Jim methodically took us through the steps involved in a criminal case, and he identified that we could challenge the evidence in a hearing called a motion to suppress. Attorney Goodhines explained the process completely, and after a hearing, the judge not only dismissed the charges against my son, she suppressed the evidence recovered from his friend. I would strongly recommend Mr. Goodhines as a lawyer - he is a thoughtful and caring lawyer, something you don't hear people say enough anymore!

Attorney Jim Goodhines is a great lawyer. He handled my domestic violence charge with my wife in a straight forward way based on the facts. My case was dismissed and my wife and I are happy that the episode is behind us. He is professional and experienced. He is the best lawyer I ever met

Attorney Goodhines handled my charges from the Chicopee District Court. He was on top of things from the very beginning of my case. He got me released on bail, met with me and my family, and prepared the best defense I could ask for. We won a motion to suppress evidence and my whole case was thrown out. Jim saved me from jail time and for that I will be forever grateful. He is the best lawyer you could ask for.

I recently had a firearms case with Attorney Goodhines. As a former prosecutor, he was very knowledgeable on the subject. He handled my case effectively and I got the best possible result -my case was dismissed! Jim is a great guy and a great lawyer. I would definitely recommend him to anyone with a serious case.
