We used Michael about 5 years ago for a custody case. He was aggressive when he needed to be, and gave some of the best advice we could’ve asked for. Since then, he’s been willing to answer questions for us, guide us in issues we’ve had since the order was put into place, and so much more. I highly recommend using him & trusting that when he says, “let’s wait,” wait... and when he says, “let’s do it,” do it. He definitely has your best interest in mind!

I hired Michael Goodman some time ago to represent me in an insurance situation. While the case took a little longer than we would have liked I felt Michael had my best interest in mind at all times, and he pushed hard when it counted. He pressed the other side and ultimately got the outcome we were looking for. He was fair on his pricing as well and I felt the value of his services is simply fantastic. Highly recommend him!

Thank you Mr. Goodman and Alma! They were willing to work with me and assured me of the best possible outcome, this was the first time I have had to go through a divorce and was scared to no end. I really believe they care about their clients beyond the business relationship. Great people, I highly recommend.

Michael Goodman is exceptional! I would describe him as a man of “steel and velvet” because he was tough as nails when he needed to be and soft hearted and caring when I needed it most. In the end, my marriage survived and is stronger than ever. Michael shared many resources and knew exactly how to advise me through my toughest moments. I will be forever thankful for his brilliant guidance.

Cameron and his staff were a reliable rock of objective reason and support during an uncertain and confusing time for my family. Cameron is professional and knowledgeable and works hard to understand one's needs and desires before recommending a course of action. His strong character and experience is evident in his sound professional advice, work ethic, and admirable reputation among his clients, peers, and community leaders. I highly recommend the Law Offices of J. Cameron Cowan.

An awesome attorney and a really good guy. When I first went to see Cameron about my divorce case, my hope was to get a fair divorce and to get shared custody. Cameron did much better than that! He got me custody of my son and I was able to keep my house. It was more than I ever thought was possible and his rates are very reasonable. Cameron is the kind of lawyer that you hope to find. His honesty and values are the kind that sets him apart from most. He will tell it like it is and be in your corner. Thank You, Cameron
