About:
While my practice is fundamentally a Family Law practice, my reputation is in "Palimony", the rights of unmarried people living together. I believe I handle more Palimony cases than any attorney. I have been practicing for 38 years and was trained for eight years by Marvin Mitchelson, the attorney attributed with having created that body of law and known as "The Father of Palimony". I assist those "kicked to the curb" by persons of wealth and power. Many Family Law matters often accompany a Palimony case, such as Divorce, Child Custody, Domestic Violence Restraining Orders, Spousal or Child Support and more. See my web site. I can help you.

"I think Cary Goldstein is an excellent attorney. He genuinely cares about the people he helps, and has the skills to back it up with positive results. He is very experienced and knowledgeable and took the time to answer my all questions and doesn’t mind explaining things when requested. I trusted him with my issues and he delivered excellent, professional and caring service. I highly recommend him."

"My divorce was very complicated because I was Mmarried to a Supior Court Judge Mr Goldstein drove more than 100 MI to my city to get my divorce done and I must say I was pleasantly surprised. Not only did Mr Goldstein get my divorce finished but it was kept out of the news and he was very discreet and honest. Thank you Mr Goldstein, even though I paid you (which was refunded in the settlement), I feel like I owe you one.Thank you again!! If it were ethical, I'd buy you a drink."

"I was referred to Cary by Steven Mindel to review my palimony case for viability. My legal situation is very complicated nearly 5 years later & 4 lawsuits between my ex & myself, so I knew it wouldn’t be “quick” or “easy” getting Cary caught up enough to decipher the situation, but I very clearly understand now why he is a difficult man to get a hold of, & why his hourly rate is as high as it is - because Cary is worth it. I walked in not expecting to get as much time, respect, information, support & truth as he kindly provided me with. I arrived with a sheet of paper that drew/listed out, each of the lawsuits: the case number, judge, date filed & complaints, organized chronologically. Cary spent about an hour with myself & a trusted family friend deciphering the overall situation & the best strategy moving forward. He told us what he knew about judges & other lawyers & their demeanours, he used his own past cases as examples to help us understand how he would arrive at his opinions. Ultimately, he told us the truth. It wasn’t necessarily enjoyable to hear (that basically everything I’ve already lost is lost forever & most likely will just get worse) & he agreed that none of this is by any means fair… but it was realistic & honest, & I can’t imagine a greater gift from an attorney. Altogether, Cary said it was not in my best interest to move forward on this case - that Cary could take my money at an hourly rate, but he didn’t feel the emotional & financial expenses were worth it. When I told him that I didn’t care if I spent every last dollar paying him just to drag my ex through some of the horrors my ex has dragged me through time & again, Cary calmly brought me back down to grown-up Earth: “That isn’t a good way of looking at it.” He reminded me that I’m still young enough to let this go & enjoy my life, & after a few tears, I felt lighter & good about letting this case (& everything else I’ve lost in these terrible 5 years)... go. Cary is patient, clear, kind, extremely knowledgeable, well-connected in the Los Angeles County court system, professional, realistic, & unexpectedly he also has a dry, lovely sense of humour in stolen moments. I would have felt proud & grateful to have him representing me. In my experience & interactions with him, I truly found Cary Goldstein to be a good man & a brilliant lawyer."

"This law firm saved my life. They are one of the best in Los Angeles. They know what they're doing. Attorney Cary Goldstein is very experienced and also committed to helping women, so if you're a female, expect to be treated with respect. Cary's female associates, attorneys Lauren and Sarah work with Cary as a team, so you feel safe and protected going through the divorce process. I did my research before I hired him, so I knew that Cary Goldstein is also the top attorney in the country for Palimony cases. Unlike most palimony attorneys, Cary also has years of experience with Palimony cases. I was lucky enough to find Cary Goldstein as my attorney."
