Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience.

I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service.

He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.

At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed.

Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town.

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me.

I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time. After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

After discussing everything, Mr. Goldman told me the best strategy to avoid going to jail. He also told me about all the experience he had dealing with cases like mine. Between his calming manner and years of experience, My Goldman immediately put my mind at ease. True to his word, I avoided doing any jail time. Because I didn’t have to do any jail time, I also avoided losing my job. I owe Mr. Goldman a LOT. He’s a lawyer who will put your mind at ease and who gets results. I highly recommend the Law Office of Steven Goldman to anyone who needs a criminal defense lawyer and has too much on the line to settle for second best.

I'm an active duty military member with 19 years in the Service. Just before the end of last year, I was arrested at JFK airport while trying to check a firearm and three empty magazines on my way back to Indiana. Even though I have a Gun Permit from out of state, not having one issued by NYC constitutes a criminal charge where I'm faced with a possible jail term of 3.5 to 7 years. In what seems like a blink of an eye, I was facing a felony conviction, a bleak future in my Naval career and retirement benefits I worked so hard for are in jeopardy. Not to mention my uncertain / limited prospects in the civilian sector as a felon. I was desparate and beyond myself after my initial arraignment, considering I just spent well over 12 hours in jail. After a quick internet seach, I came across Steven H. Goldman. Just after the first meeting, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Members of his legal support team are very professional and top-notch. His confident, calm and reassuring demeanor gave us the peace of mind we desperately needed. Steve and his team worked diligently with the DA on my behalf and gave me regular updates. In less than three weeks, his efforts yielded excellent results. The DA offered ACD (Adjudication in Contemplation of Dismissal) for my case. This typically involves a 6-month waiting period before the case is closed/sealed. When the time came for my Desk Appearance, the DA offered ACD where it will be closed/sealed after 1 DAY. I couldn't ask for a better result. Now, we're getting ready to put this nightmare behind us, I'll be able to complete my military service honorably, and live the rest if our lives in peace. If you find yourself or anybody you love in a desperate legal bind, STEVEN H. GOLDMAN is THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY to have in your corner. Without question, he will fight tooth and nail to preserve your rights and future, he's the BEST criminal defense attorney in town. Hiring him as my legal counsel was the BEST decision I ever made during this ordeal and I will remain eternally grateful to him and his team. THANK YOU Steve Goldman!!

I am a foreign national that visits New York about 5-8 times per year to see my wife. I do not possess a NYC drivers licence and I got ticketed for two offenses which I promptly paid. When I visited NYC recently I was pulled over by the cops for using my cell phone. Upon checking my documents and my foreign drivers licence the officers returned and told me my licence was suspended due to none payment of assessment fees. To my surprise and horror I was handcuffed and taken to the precinct where I was held and fingerprinted for nearly six hours. I was charged with operating a vehicle without a licence which was a misdemeanor and release with a DAT to appear in criminal court. I was scared and did not want to take any chances so I started searching for a criminal attorney with the required experience. After a few consultations I came across Mr Goldman after reading some reviews. I made contact via email and I got a prompt response. After one phone conversation I told my wife that I was not worried anymore as Mr Goldman was thorough with his explanation of my case and he said don't worry too much we can handle this. I met Mr. Goldman in person and we spoke and I hired him to represent me. The week of the court date I was informed that Mr Goldman would not be available so he would send me someone to stand in for him, I must say I was a bit disappointed but the representative was equally professional as Mr Goldman and he made me feel at ease. The DA offered me a reduced charge and I felt good but was informed by the attorney he had to speak to Mr Goldman before he could accept so the matter was put off for a later date. When I spoke to Mr Goldman he explained to me that due to my immigration status and traveling back and forth he was not ready to accept that lesser charge so I should give him some time to speak further with the DA. He kept me informed even though it was not good news. On the morning of the hearing we spoke and he said he would be late because he still wanted to speak to DAs office more. When Mr Goldman arrived he said good news. He got the case dismissed and I walked away as if nothing had happened. I thank Mr Goldman for going above and beyond on this case. He was more concerned about the repercussions I could face further on. This for me is exceptional and shows a firm that cares about the client fully. Thank you sir and may God continue to bless you as you do the best you can. I recommend the law offices of Steven Goldman a 110%.

Very grateful to Mr. Steven Goldman. I was arrested for DWI. I was worried that if I was convicted of driving drunk and intoxicated that would leave a criminal record and lose my work permit (DACA) without being able to renew it. I decided to hire Mr. Goldman's services and asked him to help me reduce the DWI charge to driving while ability impaired. The day of the court Sr. Goldman gave me great news, he talked to the prosecutor and convinced him to only I accused me of a traffic violation. I have no criminal record thanks to him. He is a very prepared and honest lawyer and dedicated to his work. I really recommend him, every dollar i spend was worth it. THANKS MR. STEVEN GOLDMAN.

I was arrested for my 3rd DWI within 10 years, and hired Steven Goldman to represent me. The DA wanted no less than a year in jail. Steve spoke with the DA and the DA Supervisor on several occasions, and they wouldn’t budge. Over a years’ time, Steve was able to negotiate from 1 year at Rikers Island to a 3 month intermittent sentence which was 12 consecutive weekends from Saturday at 9am to Sunday at 5pm. A very small sacrifice for having my life during the week. Thanks to Steve’s negotiations and tenacity, I was able to keep my job of 19 years without anyone knowing my business. I have only 3 more weekends to go and I’m very thankful for all the hours, compassion and expertise that Steve has shown. I would HIGHLY recommend him and his staff for any criminal case.

You always think that getting arrested is something that only happens to other people. But it isn’t. It can happen to you, just like it happened to me. One night we invited another couple to our house to watch the Super Bowl together. We ate dinner and watched the game. And of course we drank. Too much. The evening was a lot of fun. At some point I passed-out. When I woke-up I was in my bed. I didn’t remember getting into the bed, but that’s where I was. I looked over and my friend’s girlfriend was lying next to me. I didn’t remember her getting into the bed either, and I was more than a little surprised to see her there. After some awkward conversation she got up and left. Some weeks later the police called and asked me to come to the precinct. I asked why, and they said that I was being accused of trying to rape the woman who was at my house the night of the Super Bowl. I couldn’t believe my ears. It didn’t seem possible. The officer assured me there was no mistake and said I needed to turn myself in. That began the nightmare that would last the next 14 months. I hired Steven Goldman. He made sure that bail was set at an amount that I could afford to pay so I didn’t have to sit in jail. He also kept me calm. That was not easy, especially because I was being charged with attempted rape – a felony! – and the DA wanted me to plead guilty to a crime that would have made me a registered sex offender. I knew I was innocent, and there’s was simply no way I would ever do that. Thankfully I didn’t have to. I was able to resolve the case without pleading guilty to a crime. Thanks to Mr. Goldman, I’m not a registered sex offender for a crime I didn’t commit. I really believe that if I had used another lawyer the outcome would have been very different. Because of Steven Goldman, the nightmare that was these criminal charges is now behind me.

One day while shopping at a department store near where I live in the Bronx, I was arrested and charged with petit larceny. I had never been arrested before and was terrified at the possibility that I might go to jail. Worse, in less than a month I was scheduled to realize my dream and be sworn in as a US citizen, a dream that could now come crashing down as a result of this arrest. I was frightened and had no idea what to do, so I called Steven Goldman. He answered all my questions and immediately put my mind at ease. After discussing the case in depth, he explained how we could resolve the case without jail and without affecting my ability to become a US citizen. He did exactly as he promised. Thanks to him I can happily say I am now a US citizen. From the bottom of my heart I would like to thank Mr. Goldman. I also want to thank his wonderful office manager, Karina, who was very supportive whenever I came to their office, and who literally held my hand while I nervously sat in court waiting for my case to be called. Without them I would not be where I am today.

Steven Goldman has actually saved me from a situation which could have been very dangerous to my career, and my life as a whole. I was going to be wrongly implicated in a rape case which would have messed up my whole life. I first contacted Steven on a Sunday night at around 11:00 PM, after I was contacted by an NYPD Detective. Steven was very prompt in his response even that late in the night. We set up an appointment immediately for the next day, Monday afternoon. I went to see him at his Columbus Circle office in Manhattan and explained everything as it happened. He listened to it very patiently, diligently noting down all the details. Then he spoke to both my accuser and the detective, and de-escalated the matter quickly. Were not for Steven Goldman, I am sure I would have been in handcuffs by now.

I was convinced that I was going to go to jail or get a felony for selling drugs to an undercover cop. Mr. Goldman managed to negotiate it down to a misdemeanor. I don't know what I would have done without him. He was extraordinarily competent and professional but also really nice and relatable. I know he actually truly cared about helping me. He went out of his way to use every resource he had and made sure I didn't ruin my life over such a dumb decision. Basically, the way that I sold the controlled substances to the undercover was extremely sketchy and most people told me that there was no way around a felony. Mr. Goldman was very honest with me throughout the process. In order to avoid jail time or a felony, I thought I might have to enter an intensive year-long drug rehab program. I cried every day thinking about that reality. It would have required many hours a day, every day, in rehab for a year with addicts when I'm not one at all. I didn't know how I would have time for work, how to tell my loved ones, how taxing it would be for my soul. Mr. Goldman managed to work out a deal with the DA by working some magic only a grade A lawyer could achieve. I ended up just getting a misdemeanor and having to do community service. I owe him everything and am enormously grateful. You should absolutely hire Mr. Goldman if you are in a bind. I really think that if I had hired another lawyer, I wouldn't have been so lucky. He knows what he is doing and is an exceptional lawyer!

I wasn’t planning to hire a criminal defense lawyer, but then I’m guessing most people don’t plan on it. Something unexpected happens in your life and suddenly you need a criminal defense lawyer. Anyway, that’s how it happened for me. I had a good job in the food service industry. One day my ex-girlfriend showed-up unexpectedly and started to fight with me. I defended myself. She called the police, and since I’m a man, I was the one that got arrested. Suddenly I found myself in jail. Worse, the DA was asking for 60 days jail! I needed a good lawyer – fast! I hired the Law Offices of Steven Goldman. I explained to him that I’d lose my job if I had to do any jail time.
