Paul has been instrumental in providing us with sensible and sound legal advice in several legal matters. His experience and expertise have proved to be extremely beneficial. His response is timely and advice is accurate. It is our good fortune to have had legal interactions with Paul. Our daughter recently referred a prospective client to Paul. She described her dealings with him in glowing words. She felt the advice he offered her was sound and lifesaving. Paul not only is a respected attorney in the county, he gives freely of his time to help in the community. The fund raising he has personally done for MS is unbelievable.
One of the most genuinely caring people that I have ever met and this was my lawyer. I will always be grateful for everything that Paul Goldhamer did for me. He gave me hope that my situation was not a complete disaster and he fought for me as my lawyer and got me what I deserved. He went above & beyond for me. Paul Goldhamer represents what a good lawyer is he is excellent at what he does and treats his clients with empathy.

I have known Paul Goldhamer for 48 years. He is honest ,fair, and highly competent. He was hired as my lawyer for a real estate closing, will, and an accident. My daughter also used him, and he was extremely fair-minded.
I have known and been a client of attorney Paul Goldhamer since he established his practice in 1975. During my forty-year association with Mr. Goldhamer, he has always gone above and beyond his professional obligations, taking the time and effort to clarify the legal and personal outcomes that could occur. He is always accessible, professional, and prepared, and a caring advocate for his clients. Having been represented by Paul Goldhamer and his firm, my recommendation could not be stronger. He is exceptional.
After the death of my mother, my family and I needed a competent law firm. I contacted my old high school friend, Paul Goldhamer. His law firm has for years been considered one of the best in our area, without question. Paul's law firm not only showed compassion for our situation, but his staff always treated us with the upmost professionalism. We are very fortunate to have retained Paul's help in this matter.
Our client - counselor relationship goes back to 1978. I achieved joint custody of my children at a time when joint custody was unheard of in Rockland County. Paul is the man who turned my life around with his ability to negotiate within the law to arrive at a joint settlement. He was my lawyer then, and he remains my lawyer today. I find him to be forthright, competent and above all committed to serving his client. I will continue to recommend Paul Goldhamer to friends in need of legal advice. If you're looking for an excellent attorney, Paul is the man you want in your corner.

I recently had the opportunity to consult with Mr. Goldhamer on a few matrimonial legal issues. I found him to be open, cooperative, helpful and honest. I also found him to be extremely knowledgeable about matrimonial law. It was a pleasure working with him. I have known Mr. Goldhamer for more than 50 years.
Paul has been our attorney for years. He's handled several matters for us from house closings to will and estate planning matters. He is extremely knowledgeable, responsive, and the person you want as your advocate. From a client's perspective, his physical presence in court is comforting. From the opposition's perspective, I imagine he can be intimidating. That's what I want in a lawyer!
