The title says it all. In brief, I was hit by a car while riding a bicycle. Jeff’s prudence, guidance, and confidence guided me toward a favorable resolution.

Jeff has been our "go to" attorney for more than two decades. He is very professional and also a friend who knows our core values and philosophies for best strategy setting for positioning timely, efficient resolutions. Jeff is also very resourceful and developed a process for us utilizing Iowa as jurisdiction for filing litigation, on certain entities, located anywhere in the US, mitigating time, effort and expense. We have been and continue to be very happy with Jeff and plan to continue to use his talents when needed.

Mr. Goodman represented me in a campaign finance disclosure hearing. He was extremely prepared, had me well educated to testify and made a very persuasive argument before the administrative board and hearing officer. I would recommend Jeff as an attorney without reservation!!

Jeff did an excellent job of reviewing the case details and then planned a meeting with the handling adjuster on how to proceed on the matter. The team work beween the two resolved the matter quickly and at the apporpriate settlement amount.

I've known this lawyer for years and called for his services on 2 occasions. Great communication and he thinks outside the box. Very open minded and makes you feel comfortable. This lawyer will give you a better understanding about your situation and will get to work right away. There are a ton of lawyers out there, this one you cant go wrong. I give this one a A++++++ rating.

I engaged Jeff to assist me with litigation over a car accident. Jeff and his staff have left no stone unturned in preparing this case for trial in a highly skilled and professional manner.. This has allowed him to conduct settlement negotiations from a position of strength. He has done a great job of keeping the client fully informed and prepared at all stages of the litigation. I will hire him again in a heartbeat if the need arises.

I have worked on a variety of matters with Mr. Goodman over the years and each matter was handled ethically, competently and with an excellent yet unique combination of zealous advocacy and advancement of the client interest with the professionalism we would hope to preserve and promote in the legal profession. He is a highly qualified and "effective" attorney.

I hired Jeff to handle a very difficult personal injury matter. Jeff's experience, legal acumen, and tireless work ethic proved invaluable. I observed his hearing demeanor: Jeff was well prepared, tough, and direct, while at all times remaining civil. He obtained an excellent result and I recommend him without qualification.

Jeff helped me out with a particularly 'sticky' legal procedure. He took care of the details, advised me correctly each step of the way, and had the next step planned out based on the opposing party's response or actions. I would not hesitate to contact Jeff again should I need his help on another item he specializes in.
