I contacted Goldberg & Jones regarding modification/termination of a spousal support order. I met with Michael Hess. Michael was very profesional and easy to speak with. He was also up front and honest about the time frame involved as well as the cost, should it go to court.
Michael always kept me informed of any issues as well as the status of my case throughout. The end result was total termination of all spousal support. (High fives all around!) Thank you again Michael…Outstanding job!

Even after my case was closed he still took the time to reach out and ask how I was doing. If you need help with a custody case I would definitely recommend Michael Hess as an attorney.
