About
My goal is to represent personal and institutional clients to produce the most favorable outcome which meets their goals in an ethical, efficient, and cost effective manner. I have practiced a wide variety of civil law, litigation, trial work, in Idaho for 35 years, and in Wyoming for 25 years. I welcome the opportunity to serve new clients with their legal needs. My problem solving approach seeks to quickly identify and get to the heart of a dispute or issue and seek a reasonable and fair outcome advantageous and acceptable to the client, not to prolong,aggravate, or increase difficulty or expense.

John evaluated, recommended and implemented an excellent strategy to assist in the collection of monies from a debtor that moved to four different states in six months. Success! He listened carefully, then acted in my best interest. I thoroughly recommend.
John was very professional in representing my Southern California based Auto insurance company against a frivolous law suit from an accident I caused. I could not be more pleased with his research, persistence, dedication to see this through and most of all his constant communication along the way. The settlement that was reached and agreed upon by all parties was more than fair.
John assisted our family with settling an estate dispute. He was a straight shooter regarding the merits and potential outcomes of the case. He was good at keeping us up to date on it's progress as well as maintaining a good working relationship with the opposing legal counsel. We had the outcome we desired and would absolutely seek out John for assistance should another legal matter occur
My husband and I needed to update our will drawn up we began our travels out of country. This firm came highly recommended by our CPA. So happy we chose them! John Goodell replied immediately to our request and was very efficient in getting all the necessary information needed prior to meeting and finalizing the will. I was amazed how smoothly it all went. Thank you, John!
John successfully helped our family negotiate difficult estate issues without resorting to litigation. I'm very pleased with the outcome.
I have found John to be an honest attorney of high character and integrity. I hired him to handle a civil suit, and he was extremely thorough and yet efficient with his time in responding to the numerous motions filed by my opponents in their attempts to delay, discourage and intimidate me. Through it all, John was a tireless advocate for justice. In court he was calm, steady, and measured in his remarks, and the judge ruled in my favor on the case. John also helped me feel more comfortable going through the very tense and troubling process of litigation.
John set up our living wills, advanced directives and POA's for my mother and I in 2016. Seamless and informative. He even came to our house to set up the paperwork. My Mother passed away in march of 2018, and when I contacted him he was very compassionate and thorough. I have subsequently sought out his advise and knowledge of the estate details. I recommend John highly.
John helped us set up our estate plan. He is very professional and has an impressive knowledge of probate and estate planning. He was easy to talk to and spent a great amount of time explaining legalities and answering our questions. His fees are reasonable and the documents he prepared for us were completed in a timely fashion. We recommend John Goodell to anyone looking for this type of service.
John thoroughly researched and explained case studies that a novice like myself could understand. He is honest and straight forward. He gave us all potential outcomes and never once promised "Blue Skies". However, our case could not have had a better outcome. There is no doubt that his experience contributed greatly to the results. I highly recommend John for your legal needs.
We use Mr. Goodell to defend cases filed against the State of Idaho. I have used John on cases involving general liability, police excessive force claims and 1983 Civil Rights cases. He is extremely intelligent, interacts well with our state agencies and always strives to achieve the best financial result for the state. I give John the highest recommendation.
