Vigorous Representation Based On Over 55 Years Of Collective Experience
Criminal charges are frightening because of the unknown. You may not know your rights or understand the charges. You may be in the dark about the criminal penalties or how a conviction or guilty plea will affect your future.
At Goldberg Dowell & Associates, we give clients the information and honest assessment necessary to understand where they stand and what their options are. We assert your rights and your defenses at every stage of the criminal justice process, from arraignment and bail through hearings, motions, trial, sentencing and appeals.
Mr.Goldberg represented me and knew exactly what to do. He was straight forward with the whole process. I felt confident he would represent me well, and that’s what he did. I felt comfortable talking to him as he guided me through the case. He promised to help with my expungement process, and he kept that promise years later. Now I can proudly say my expungement was granted thanks to Michael Goldberg. I am truly grateful and wish him continuous success. I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for an expert attorney who will represent them the right way.
