Attorney James Goad is a great attorney. He took on our case when no one else would, and put a lot of time an effort to help us win the case. He loves challenges and has a great personality to boot! Definitely 100% recommend Mr. Goad to anyone that is looking for great representation! Thanks!

had a great experience with mr goad

Best attorney’s in town! Communication was easy and prompt. They got our case wrapped up in 3 months. Definitely recommend!

One of the Best Attorneys in Cartersville!

MR.Goad was very down to earth and still confident. I felt that I was in good hands. He was easy to work with. I would definitely recommend his service to a friend.

Me and my family are beyond pleased and thankful to all of the staff at this Law office. Regardless to the clients reason of what brings them in, I can attest that you have chosen a great team of professionals, who bring forth legal expertise, outstanding customer service, and above all at reasonable cost.

At no point did I ever feel like I was alone throughout my journey in my divorce case.

Crooked

Beware, very shady.

Mr. Goad has represented me more than once over the past 15 years. I have always been extremely happy with not only the service I received, but also for the personal attention he gives to every case. He listens and tries to help you with every aspect of your legal issue. I couldn't imagine ever using another law firm to represent me.

Attorney Kent Buis is wonderful. Not only did he represent me, but he also took the time to explain the entire process to me, and was very patient in answering my calls. Unlike some attorneys, he made sure to follow up with me several times, and to make sure I understood what was going on. I couldn't have asked for a more experienced, professional, understanding attorney. If you choose attorney Kent Buis to represent you, rest assured you are in the best hands.

Very professional

Best around!!

Very professional, and they let you know what’s going on through various communication channels. I would definitely recommend their services.

This law office was paid $3800 to basically change the legal representation name on my initial plea deal. They actually managed to do less than my public defender and made false promises of fair legal representation in future legal issues. I do not recommend this law office.

All of my words will be not enough to describe this attorney ! HE IS MAYBE NOT JESUS CHRIST, BUT CERTAINLY SECOND AFTER HIM !
He handled my heavy traffic violation, where I was facing big fine and very possibly up to 1 year of jail time with such an ease, only Second after Christ could do ! As a result, I've got to pay the fine only under $250. without any additional consequences, like driving points, auto insurance premiums going up, etc. And all the time he was very professional, polite, empathic and respectful to me and my case.
He instructed me before going before the judge briefly and very clearly, I had no unanswered questions after that and everything went very smoothly, exactly, how He told me it will. During initial consultation, Mr. James, after looking through my papers and listening to me, asked some basic questions, everybody would ask and told me directly and openly, whether he will be able to handle this case and what exactly he could do.
All details were discussed during this initial meeting. He answered all of my questions, I've had at that time, told me his fee, I've found VERY reasonable and contract was signed. Mt James was up to His word all the time and probably even outdid Himself a bit about what He could do, bc on my mind, He did even more, than He told me during initial meeting.
Anyway, if you have any problems of criminal, or traffic (see his profile) - YOU WILL NOT FIND BETTER ATTORNEY, THAN HIM !!!!
Also, I must mention his office staff. Two very pleasant and polite professional ladies, treating you with respect and giving you clear and complete information, you requested and answering all of your pertinent questions, you might have in a polite and clear manner, so you understand it from the first time. If only every attorney and his/her office staff would be like them ! Mr. James and his office ladies are live example, for everybody else in this area of business !
And for skeptics: No, He didn't pay me to write this review, nobody did, I didn't get for writing it even a cent ! I wrote it sincerely from my heart !

Came in today for some legal advice for a friend and he was really helpful and reassuring. Best advice I have recieved from a lawyers office for sure! Go here for sure for ANY legal advice or just needing an attorney!

Had a Great experience so far with the Goad Law Firm.....they seem to be very knowledgable and caring people..... staff is Great and helpful
Always greeted with a smiling face

You have tried the rest now try the best!!
James Goad is one of the best lawyers in Ga he went above and beyond to help
Me win my case I would highly recommend him!! Your money will be well spent!! He takes his job to heart and fights like a heavyweight which he is he will win win win!!!! And the staff in the office is amazing they treat you like family
I highly recommend them!!

I hired goad for my dfacs case. He was not only unprofessional but he in turn was the reason I lost my children by not letting me know in time when we should intervene. He also walked in to court unprepared many time. When the judge would ask him a question multiple times he had no answer. I would never recommend goad on any case. STAY AWAY BEWARE!!!!

Why it has to be so difficult to get a phone consultation is beyond me. filing for divorce is not an easy thing to do,and when the wife has the only vehicle we have working right now, makes it really difficult to speak in person, all we would be doing is talking ,and the consultation is free, so why not allow us to talk on the phone. Instead, they dont wont my business and tell me to call someone else. NO PROBLEM!

Thought the place was overrated and expensive for their services.

I have been using Mr. Goad since 2014 in a very problematic divorce. I had used two previous attorneys and changed to Mr. Goad. Mr. Goad has stood up for me in court when the judge said he would just read the motions and decide but Mr. Goad told the judge we did not want that since we had something to tell the judge. Mr. Goad has worked with me on the fees and I find them to be very reasonable. Mr. Goad has been honest and told me when the other side tried to come and talk with him about me. He actually called me on the phone and said the person was there. Mr. Goad has kept me well informed on upcoming court dates. Mr. Goad has been honest with me and that was the agreement we had in the beginning that the two of us would be honest to each other. Mr. Goad as well as his staff has been very friendly and helpful in any phone matter dealing with my case. Mr. Goad has returned all my calls. I feel that Mr. Goad has been the best attorney for me and I would recommend him.

I just recently got done with an ugly divorce case, that involved 3 children and lasted a little over a year. James Goad was extremely dedicated to my case, a case that was not easy by any means, and i appreciate all the work He and his staff put into it. There is no other lawyer that i would have wanted. The outcome of the case was good. i am very happy to have this part of my life behind me. Thank you Mr. James E Goad.

He didn't do anything for my case for my daughter. I paid him 5,000 or 6,000. My daughter has been incarcerated for almost 2 years and still looking at 1 more. First time offender. Her spouse has a record for armed robbery as accessory and he got a court appointed attorney and is out on parole.

Very dishonest man. Never returned my calls and drug a two week case out for three months, all he understands is this bucket he says u put cash in like a leppracon hiding your gold. Man has memory loss when it comes time to do what he was payed to do. Take my advice and stay away, that's if u want a real Attorney to work for u and not a cheat. Has no pride in his law work, or the oath he had taken. One good thing about his memory is he knows how to count your money and put a tight rope around your kneck.

Gave me some good legal advice during a free consultation today. Didnt end up needing his services but if that doesn't deserve a good review, nothing does

Worst attorney very dishonest would not hired him if you do expect to pay way more than he quotes you and expect to loose he act like he has no clue of what's going on in the court room

James your great ! Even at the very last min you guys helped me .love it !

Great people, very understanding and will work in any way to help you.

Having James work for me on several cases I have gotten to know him and respect him and what he does. He is a hard working attorney who will go above and beyond your expectations. His staff is friendly and he always returns your calls right away. He's fair and straight forward which is what I like. He's going to tell you how it is and what to expect. He gives great advice and cares about his clients.

I have used this firm many times over the past seven years. I had good representation from the attorneys. The staff is courteous and professional.

Mr. Goad has helped me with two auto accidents. I was very happy with the settlements.

I met Mr. Goad several years ago, when I retained his services for a divorce. Mr. Goad actually listened to what I had to say. He was empathetic and gave me excellent advice. I was very happy with the results. Since that time, he has represented me in another divorce case and a financial matter. I have recommended Mr. Goad to several friends who have been equally happy.

Choosing a divorce lawyer was a big decision for me. I needed an attorney that could handle a very difficult divorce with contested child custody. I knew the odds were against me and after speaking to a lot of attorneys I decided that James Goad had the desire, skill, and local knowledge necessary to do the job correctly and since you only have one chance to make that decision I'm thankful I was right. James was always available and responsive and I will always be indebted to him for utilizing his skills to help me attain custody of my son. If you are about to get an attorney in Cartersville you can't do wrong giving James a call.

My experience was absolutely horrible with this law office. I've met several very wonderful lawyers and had started to wonder where all those bad names and connotations that lawyers get come from, well I can tell you where.. this guy. I have a degree and consider myself pretty intelligent, but he got me when I was down and out and boy did it cost me (even though I came to my senses within 48 hrs). I attempted several times to work something out with him and he would act like he fully intended to make it right, but he was just blowing me off each time.
