Excellent lawyer.

Our experience talking to her on the phone terrible.

It made me think of that Christopher Walken joke. "What do you call a 1000 lawyers buried up to their necks in sand? Not enough sand.

MJ just handled my Divorce. I was refered by a friend and she was Great! She kept me grounded and explained the law to me despite my emotional state. She and her staff were very professional. "Relax I got this" was her advice to me and she wasn't kidding.Thanks for everything!

If you need a dependable and honest lawyer, you need MJ Goodwin on your side. She tells it like it is and she gets it done. She knows what she's doing and really understands the law. She was very quick to respond to my e-mails, no matter what time of day. She has many clients but she still made me feel like I was her only one. Also, Joy is very friendly and helpful. I truly appreciate them both!

I couldn't have asked for a better attorney for my custody and child support case. There is no easy way to go through something that stressful, but having someone that is honest, firm and knowledgeable definitely lessens the blow. She finds reason in unreasonable situations (and unreasonable people) and often put my mind at ease even with just an email. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking help with custody, child support, visitation, or anything really. I finally feel like I have my life back thanks to MJ and Joy.

While looking for a lawyer in the Anderson area, I noticed MJ's favorable review. It turns out that the reviews were true. I appreciate everything that she has done for me. MJ and Joy were quick to respond and tried to get things done quickly as possible. If I have to go to another lawyer in the future, I would definitely consider MJ.

Divorce has .... high drama, high stress, seemingly no end, ugliness, fears and tears .... and all the while I thought my case would have been an easy one. Anyone wanting a knowledgeable attorney with ability to calm the stormy seas of divorce, ability to offer reason in unreasonable conditions, and temper the high stresses, with honesty, integrity and firmness, MUST hire MJ. She wasn’t just an attorney, she understood, she softened the pain, the hurt and the whole experience. She is firmly rooted on solid honest ground and will provide excellent counsel when all your Hell is breaking loose. She is what you need for a divorce attorney. Sorry for anyone going thru divorce. MJ softened the blow for me while giving me sound advice and service. Thank you MJ.

The best in town. Great prices and understand your interest. Very respectful and good at her job. I highly recommend her to anyone that needs advice or assistance right away. She help me in my situation and she will do the same for you!!!

Excellent attorney! Really cares about her clients. We came to her in November and she had our adoption completed by December! Much faster than I expected and very affordable as well. Definitely recommend.

Atty.MJ Goodwin helped us with the family court ( parental rights and adoption case). She’s very professional and treat her clients with respect, very down to earth. She listens and talks to you. I hope I will not have any family legal issues in the future but if I do, I know who I would call to. Thank you MJ.

MJ has been my attorney for 7 years. She always does a great job with every situation that has presented itself. Divorce is a messy business. MJ took care of everything for me. She is very easy to work with and always just an email away.

Goodwin -Law- Firm helped me in a matter and truly went above and beyond in the situation. I was represented better than I could have ever imagined. The Goodwin Law Firm and staff are extremely knowledgeable, professional and prompt. I would recommend and referred Goodwin Law Firm to friends and family.
Best regards - Betty M. Huggins

MJ did a great job. Thank you for all your hard work.

I would HIGHLY recommend MJ to anyone .I was getting a divorce after 47 years of marriage. MJ was so amazing in helping me to understand everything that was going on. I could get in touch with her any time of the day if I had a question. She really cares about her clients and she always goes that extra mile for you. She is such an amazing lawyer. Like I said I would highly recommend MJ without hesitation!!

I would highly recommend Mj Goodwin. She was very fast and sweet.

This woman helped change my life! My parents had an awful divorce, I met her as a15 year old child, she listened to me, believed me, and never made me feel less than. She encouraged me to push myself and break the cycle in my family.
20 years later I know this woman had a part in my success. I often stop in and see her just for a hug!

If I could give negative stars as an option I would. This attorney/GAL did a horrible job as my child’s gardian. In a 16 month span she met my child for 15 mins within just a few days of our final hearing. I also requested her to meet my child with me and come to my home, and that wasn’t even done until the judge made her do it and give a “factual” report. The previous report she gave in court was completely one sided and by law she is not to give opinions. All her report basically was, was her opinion. She made things worse by lying, changing people’s words around, and was completely unethical and unprofessional. I would not suggest anyone use this women for ANYTHING! I wouldn’t even let her represent or be a GAL for a dog. Would not, would not, would not recommend..............

I needed to have legal guardianship of our grandson registered with the court here in SC, as we had just moved in from NH. I found Goodwin Law's website and gave her a call. Attorney Goodwin was pleasant and knowledgeable about my concerns and in a short time had everything completed and filed. In the future, I will not hesitate to use her firm again.

It was really great working with MJ. I would recommend her to anyone!

I became separated on August 1st and found MJ around August 14th desperate for an attorney to help me negotiate a deal to save my career and the well being of my children. I knew the first time on my phone consultation I had one of the best divorce attorneys in Anderson County. She guided me through a negotiation with my wife. We had a verbal agreement in under a week and a signed financial agreement in two weeks. We wanted a quick settlement to avoid huge legal bills and preserve our future. Today is September 5th and the judge approved our agreement. It is so much easier to move on when this process doesn't drag out over a long period of time. We are now moving forward. Thank you so much MJ!

She's a very nice lawyer. She helped us in getting custody of our great niece.

MJ handled my family matter with frankness and fairness beyond my greatest expectations. She patiently answered my questions, and offered services that best suited what I needed regardless of her bottom line. I appreciated her candidness and respect her for her integrity.

MJ is a great lawyer. She handled my divorce and custody and everything could not have went better. If you have any questions, you can e-mail her and she WILL get back to you quickly.

Great attorney! Very professional! Got job done quickly and with no hassle. Highly recommend.

I highly recommend Mrs. Goodwin for anyone looking for an amazing, professional, and knowledgeable attorney! She was very prompt in answering any questions I had and made my divorce process very smooth. Also Joy at the front desk was very nice and reassuring! Definitely plan on working with them if anything else comes up in the future!

Highly recommend MJ. She is there for you when you need her. Very professional, thorough and knowledgeable. She cares about her clients and goes the extra mile.

I really enjoyed working with MJ and Joy! Joy is so polite and helpful and MJ is organized, extremely knowledgeable and very friendly. I will definitely use their services in the future!

I’ve known and worked with Ms. Goodwin for well over a decade. As a forensic psychiatrist, I’ve had the opportunity to interface with hundreds of attorneys and Ms. Goodwin is, without question, one of the finest. She works zealously for her clients and is particularly attuned to the needs of children involved in her cases. She is both compassionate and highly effective. I give her my highest recommendation.

Mrs. Goodwin has always made me feel like a valued client. Always helpful in answering my legal questions..

Very easy to work with and prompt too answer questions. Had full knowledge of the system, how it worked and was very good at keeping expectations in check during a turbulent time. Would recommend her to anyone.

Would highly recommend MJ to anyone. She was amazing in helping me to understand everything going on and no matter what time of the day I could always get in touch with her. Very professional and helpful

I am beyond thankful for MJ! She was amazing during my long year of seperation then final divorce/child custody! She was amazing at answering any questions i had! Also Joy (front desk) was also amazing and very reassuring! Highly recommend MJ for any divorce or child custody needs!

I would recommend this law firm. Ms.Goodwin was wonderful.

MJ Goodwin is a great lawyer!!! Very professional, personable and efficient!!! I would recommend her to anyone !

I first came to see Ms Goodwin in December 1996 while I was still serving in the US Army.
I was looking for a lawyer to service some probate for my wife’s property. I chose the correct lawyer for the job. Ms Goodwin has been our attorney for the past 24 years and she has covered all of our family law needs since. I will recommend your law firm to anyone.

Sincere thanks and support for the past 24 years

i absolutely love mj. i have used her twice once for my divorce and again for a tpr/adoption. she most definitely knows what she is doing and is one of the best in my book

My most sincere thanks and gratitude for the support, planning and execution of those plans as it relates to my case and the positive outcome. I would recommend your firm to everyone. Also my sincere appreciation and gratitude to your assistant, Joy , whose professionalism, knowledge and compassion was instrumental in moving this case forward in a timely and efficient manner. Thank you and may God continue to bless you as you are a blessing to so many!

Never even called me back

Very helpful to me in my divorce! Highly recommend!

MJ took care of a QDRO for me after my divorce. She is very efficient and everything was handled in a timely matter. If I had a question about anything I could email her and she was very quick to respond. She is also working on a different case for my husband and I and she is the best! I highly recommend MJ !

MJ is very honest and upfront with you. She is very interactive and keeps you up to date.

MJ was very easy to work with. She always was quick to respond to my questions and concerns.

We contacted MJ when we needed to finalize our adoption. She was so great to work with and let us know exactly what we needed to do. Everything went great and so quickly! She's personable, calm, and easy to communicate with. We loved getting to work with her to complete our adoption!

Going through the hardest time in my life MJ was with me every step of the way. She is honest with you and tells you the best things to do. She diffently knows her work. I want to thank you for all you did and kept me informed of everything. I would recommend you for anyone looking for a good attorney.

Walking a journey of difficult circumstances, I would not have wanted any other lawyer walking the journey with me. MJ always provided sound advice in times of distress or uncertainty. She always responded to emails or calls within a timely manner. I chose MJ after asking friends and coworkers who would they trust in their case. MJ proved to be trustworthy, fair, honest, and respected my judgment along this journey.

MJ Goodwin just finished up a very difficult divorce for me. She did a wonderful job with my case and I would recommend her services to anyone in my situation.

MJ Goodwin is one of the most honest & trust worthy people that I know. She has handled multiple legal issues for our family throughout the years & I would not hesitate to recommend her services.

Mrs. Goodwin is very professional and honest. I am very satisfied and pleased with the difficult tasks she has assisted me with! I would recommend her to all! Outstanding!

The best lawyer you could ever want to have. Kept me in check through the roughest of times and helped push through the most outrageous of circumstances. Helped in every way step by step 100/10

Wish I could leave 0 stars did not represent my child as such we paid for don't ever use her I would recommend using another lawyer

Very thorough, fast, and responsive.

Very professional! Consistently reliable!

Great experience. Super easy and fast. No complaints whatsoever.

best family law attorney in the upstate. if you looking for the best then you need to go see MJ.

MJ represented me in my divorce. She was very responsive to e-mail, professional, and prompt. It was a terrible process made much easier by her expertise. Joy was so friendly and helpful, too!

Ms Goodwin is professional and caring. She gets to the point with helpful advise and honest answers. She is very quick to respond. She was a blessing to have by my side.

Im sorry I put that on your post . I was just trying to get help. Court is in a couple weeks can you help me,. Thanks sorry again

Ms. Goodwin recently represented me in a legal matter. She is very professional and is quick to respond to client concerns. She will provide clear and sincere council. I would highly recommend to prospective clients to call upon and retain her services if you want an attorney that is ready to listen and guide you through your legal matters.

I can’t t be more pleased with the transparency and ease to access communication and documentation though her client electronic portal app. Ms.Goodwin is very prompt in returning calls and inquiries. My case was handled with ease speed and accuracy. This is a person who understands family law and related legal matters. She was very prepared for court and I appreciate this, as this eliminated any loss time from not having all the materials prior to session. Well done. Kudos Jh

MJ was the perfect lawyer for me. Perfect mix of understanding, knowledge, and dedication to her job. She knows what she is doing and does it well. If you need someone who will take care of business, she's the one you can count on. Her advice was on point and her confidence is contagious. Thank you MJ!

MJ Goodwin is amazing, from the first contact with Joy her Legal Assistant and throughout the entire process of my separation, mediation and final divorce agreement she was professional, caring and extremely responsive. MJ navigated me through some rough waters, skillfully and tactically, plus she is a great negotiator. Divorce is brutal for all involved, it really was wonderful working with Joy and MJ, they made a really tough time much better and the final agreement was very fair and I am thrilled!

Miss MJ and Joy was a pleasure to work with, I would recommend them highly.

MJ represented me during my divorce. She was very helpful explaining the details and what I could expect. Contacting her via e-mails was very helpful and she returned them in a timely manner. I would recommend her for any legal advice you may need. And bonus, she is like a block away from Anderson S.C courthouse . She advised me of any matter that may or may not benefit me in future that I may wish to pursue concerning my divorce.

I highly recommend MJ Goodwin as a divorce attorney. I was an emotional wreck during most of my divorce and she brought me back to earth, and handled my outbursts and doubts with sane, concrete and constructive advice. In the end I was totally satisfied with the outcome of a very contentious divorce and I thank her for her patience and constant guidance.

Todd, has been with my husband and I for nearly (almost) about 2 years now. He is the best attorney we could ask for not only on what we started out on, but two different cases later. Joy, is just as helpful and they have became like family to us. There is never a time where he doesn't just listen my husband or I and is very accepting considering this case is primarily with my husband and the best interest of his children. I nor my husband couldn't ask for a better attorney or assistant, Joy to him.

I would highly recommend this Law Firm! Todd handled my difficult case with dedication and focused on my children, as well as my best interests! i was kept on the loop every step of the way and felt like he was fully vested for a positive outcome! They are truly professional!!

YES I am SO thankful to MJ Goodwin. She did the best at being My attorney and finalizing My divorce. I am very satisfied and grateful. She is an extremely wonderful woman.

MJ Always answers in a timely manner, even on weekends. She gives excellent legal advice and counsel, and went above and beyond to make sure I got my desired outcome.

MJ Goodwin was a good lawyer. She was able to really give us the help and advice we needed to get the best out come for our family. She is very informative and knowledgeable about the court system. She gave us the comfort we needed through every step. I would recommend her to anyone needing family legal help.

MJ, as far as I am concerned, is not just the best attorney in the UpState of South Carolina but one of the finest people I have had the privilege of knowing. She made what I would accurately describe as the worst experience in my life, divorce, be as manageable as it could possibly be. She was very professional, knowledgeable, persistent, consistent and resilient throughout the process. She kept expectations at the appropriate levels all the time and worked very hard to achieve those expectations. She is a definite plus in the South Carolina Legal System and I highly recommend her to anyone seeking relief from the court system in a case involving separation or divorce. --gil

Mrs Goodwin was very professional and direct. She Worked hard on my divorce and child custody cases. She answered any and all questions I had and kept me sane when I thought things was not going like I thought they should!! She was worth every dime. I would recommend her too anyone and I have several times to other people.

Great experience with MJ Goodwin. Would highly recommend her.

Passionate about her job enough to excuse the flattery and rather is direct with her clients, proficient in her skills and public appearance. Great job MJ

MJ helped me through my divorce after 25 years of marriage. I unfortunately discovered I not only was being divorced by my spouse for another woman, but that I would have to pay based on law for the privilege. MJ was kind enough to explain what I could and couldn't do, how much time it would take, and how to keep my costs down. I really appreciate her transparency and frankness. It helped everything else go a little smoother when I was not at my emotional best.

There are not enough words in the English language to express how thankful I am for MJ Goodwin. She was able to keep me grounded through one of the worst seasons of my life... never setting the expectation higher than what she could deliver. Mrs. Goodwin shed a comical light on situations without lessening their severity… often reminding me that I was stronger than I thought and that no matter what the opposition brought, we would get through this. Sure enough, we did.
Throughout my difficult divorce she was able to keep the children and their needs as the main priority. I am probably most thankful for this. Despite many upsets and personal attacks she was able to maintain composure and lead things in the direction she saw would benefit the children.
I never once felt like ‘simply a client’. The entire office staff made me feel like a priority, like a real person whose opinions and needs mattered. I highly recommend MJ Goodwin as an attorney. She is one the most authentic, honest, and kind people you will ever cross paths with and you will not regret your choice should you choose her.

MJ is kind, compassionate, and honest. She knows the law and is a true professional in the family court. She helped me through the most difficult time in my life, guiding me with strength, knowledge, and a genuine desire to see me get the best outcome possible! I would highly recommend her without hesitation.

Ms. Goodwin and staff are outstanding, kind, and fast! I highly recommend them!

Want real results? Mj Goodwin is a tough, knowledgeable, no nonsense attorney . I now have full custody of my 3 boys thanks to her. She has always given me superb legal advice, and genuinely cares about the families she fights for. I recommend her to everyone!

I had been through two different lawyers in the last 3 years in a child custody situation. I was ready to give up when I found MJ Goodwin in Anderson. She was very attentive and understanding to my situation and went out of her way to make sure I understood the legal process we were going through. She was always available to answer any questions I had along the way and saw things through to the end. Together we were able to get the best outcome for my family. I would recommend Goodwin and Pruette for any of your legal needs.

M J only interest is MONEY.

Very friendly, patient, and helpful.

Absolutely HORRIBLE. Has done nothing to put any effort into my case since day one. He does NOTHING he says he will do and is impossible to reach and is extremely slack in returning calls and/or emails. I would NEVER recommend him waste of time and money. Just to clarify this review is about Todd pruette

Mrs. Goodwin represented me in Family Court recently. She not only did a great job of representing me and guiding me through this process, she and everyone there showed me that they genuinely cared. I highly recommend them!

MJ Goodwin and Todd Pruette are the best! I had a nasty custody battle and MJ represented me professionally and with passion. I would highly recommend these two to anyone that needs an attorney.

I have used MJ for multiple legal services. My experience has always been superb! MJ and her staff have been great to work with. I would highly recommend her firm to anyone needing quality legal services.

Wonderful Service! Very affordable and they really cared about my situation! Staff and attorney's very friendly! Made my adoption even more special than it already was!
