Richard and his sons made me feel very welcome from my first appointment onward. While I was busy fretting about every little detail of my case, he patiently answered all my questions and helped to put my mind at ease. I chose Richard to be my attorney because he had more than four decades worth of experience as both a prosecutor and defense lawyer, and in the end it was worth it. Richard got the best result for my case, one that exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend Mr. Goolsby to anybody in search of a defense attorney.

I spoke with 10 different lawyers and my case was repeatedly turned down because of its complexity. Mr. Goolsby took my case and put my mind at ease, both him and his son Blake worked on my case for nearly 6 months and made me feel like family. They got me much more than I ever asked for and never stopped making my case feel important. I never had a concern that my needs and interests weren’t being put first. They were both always doing their best to get my case settled and won. I appreciate everything they did for me and the security they’ve provided for me and my son.

In January of 2019 I slipped on some ice at my apartment complex causing an injury that required surgery. I contacted Mr. Goolsby regarding the matter just wanting to be compensated for my out of pocket expenses. Though we weren't talking a large dollar amount, Mr. Goolsby treated me with respect and acted like I was his only client. On top of that I received a more than fair settlement due to Mr. Goolsby's hard work. If you want someone that will work hard for you and treat you with respect, Mr. Goolsby is the one you should see.

Mr. Goolsby has helped my family with Wills and business needs. I found this firm to be professional, knowledgeable, and very detailed. I recommend him for excellent service for legal matters.

Mr. Richard Goolsby was a blessing to our family. We contacted him for representation in a misdemeanor criminal case and he worked diligently to have the case dismissed. Mr. Goolsby was attentive to our concerns and was always available for support anytime we needed to speak with him. Mr. Goolsby’s work ethic extends beyond his service as a lawyer. He became someone that our family could trust and rely upon during our time of trouble. Mr. Goolsby was our advocate. As a result, the criminal case was dismissed and our reputation and honor was restored. He was dedicated to helping our family recover from this incident and we could not have asked for anything more!

Mr. Richard Goolsby Sr. is the best trial lawyer ever. With his son Blake Goolsby at his side he is a force to be reckoned with. I was falsely accused and they never stopped believing in me. He (Mr. Richard Goolsby Sr.) is a Master of his craft. If you need a defense trial lawyer (and a friend to go with it) choose the Goolsby family and you will be in good hands and you won't regret it. The jury returned a verdict of Not Guilty against all odds. He made them see the truth. GOD BLESS him and his Family!

Retained Mr Goolsby for my divorce and after we paid everything it seemed like he forgot about me. Was very unprofessional and his son was unable to answer questions without his father. After three months of an unpleasant relationship I fired him.
