Just the best. Checks every box and then checks more you didn’t know you needed checked. I consulted with about 6-7 attorneys for a divorce case. Was confused about the process and and very emotional. Enter our heroines, MJ and her assistant Joy. Professional and experienced. Reasonable and realistic. I’d hire her again for any area of her practice without a moment’s hesitation. She and Joy are the best. You need look no further. I initially looked further and it was a waste of time. She’s the one. Write it down, take a picture, she’s the best, period. She knows what she’s doing and she does it with quiet competence and class. She is someone I will remember my whole life and be thankful for. Retain her today and put your mind at ease. Believe in her experience and align your goals with her advice and you will not be disappointed. Thank you MJ and Joy.

MJ helped me with a real pickle of a situation with my children. Their Mom had been exposing them to extremely harsh conditions in many ways and they were being subjected to several different forms of abuse. It was an odd case with jurisdictional issues. After my initial consult with MJ, she did not hesitate! She was very professional and direct which let me know quickly that she knows her stuff! She was also relentless in her fight for my children and knew just the pressure points to push to get the reaction from the opposition that she was going for. Her rates are very fair and you definitely get what you pay for!!! I hope I never have to go back to family court again after this, but if i do, I know I want MJ Goodwin in MY corner!!!

We hired Mrs. Goodwin for an adoption case, she was amazing. She's very quick to respond and was very helpful with whatever questions we had for her. She got our case in motion as soon as we hired her. I would recommend MJ Goodwin to anyone. She's very professional and thorough. My husband and I were very pleased with Mrs. Goodwin and staff.

I hired MJ Goodwin for a dangerous divorce situation and she handled my case to the upmost satisfaction. Although she is not a shoulder to cry on, she made me feel safe and happy and gave me a new life. She has so many contacts and is scary in court! She is definitely someone you want to have on your side. I absolutely recommend!
