Attorney Darryl Goldberg is exceptional. Truly one of the best Defense Attorneys in America toady. Words will never capture the exceptional abilities of Attorney Darryl Goldberg - but I will try…. If there is an Attorney Superhero, Darryl Goldberg is one. Darryl Goldberg is one of the best Defense Attorneys in America today. I am one of his successful cases. The DOJ Fraud Section in Washington DC prosecuted me in California. My prospects were grim. Other defendants in my case had previously received sentences of up to 8 years in federal prison from the Judge that sentenced Elizabeth Holmes. If only they had Darryl Goldberg, their outcomes would have been vastly different. I was facing 20 years in a Federal Prison. I was fortunate to have Darryl Goldberg as my Attorney. Darryl Goldberg prevailed for me. He won. I received NO jail time. I am ecstatic, euphoric, I pinch myself daily to make sure I am not just dreaming. It was a high-profile case, one of the largest cases in American history prosecuted by one of the heads of a DOJ criminal “Strike Force” with a massive budget. My case was complicated. Darryl Goldberg worked tirelessly for me. He focused his intellect, knowledge of the law and experience on my defense. His work far exceeded any amount of money I could ever spend. I was up against a prosecution with unlimited funds. Only sheer talent prevails in a situation like this - Darryl Goldberg has that talent. In my first meeting with Darryl Goldberg, I felt hopeful. We were on a conference call with a former Assistant United States Attorney who recommended Darryl Goldberg take on my case. He previously prosecuted one of Darryl’s former clients and was very familiar with his work. I learned that Darryl Goldberg’s expertise in defense (even in the most complicated cases) has prevailed on behalf of his clients. He interviewed me thoroughly; he understood me in ways that I did not understand myself. He brought in experts as necessary and debated with the prosecution in a way that I received the best outcome possible. The outcome was beyond my hope and imagination. His submission to the court was exceptional, fifty pages of case law, citations, examples, legal arguments and ethical reasons why the Court should sentence me no prison time, even though the sentencing guidelines called for years and years in prison. The tone and quality of Darryl Goldberg’s voice, his physical demeanor and style in court demand respect. Darryl Goldberg’s final arguments to the Court presented points of law and case examples. He uniquely explained congressional leanings, popular beliefs and trends in legal thinking to help the Judge understand the Defense’s position. The Judge found Darryl Goldberg’s arguments compelling. Darryl Goldberg’s unquestionable integrity, credibility, and respect - earned through his work and established as a reputation – gives him a unique advantage in legal negotiations, as well as in court. The DOJ prosecutor, head of the strike force prosecuting me, told me that I had "an excellent attorney." Darryl Goldberg is highly recommended. View More

A Grateful Review of Darryl Goldberg's Exceptional Advocacy I'm at a loss for words on where to begin—some maneuver through checkers, others strategize in chess, but Darryl operates on a level beyond elite chess. A remarkable 15 moves ahead in his profession, he stands as one of the nation's top lawyers and litigators. My family and I cannot express enough gratitude for what he's done. During an intensely stressful time, I crossed paths with Darryl Goldberg—a truly heaven-sent lawyer. He not only believes in second chances but fights passionately, championing even the seemingly insignificant in the grand legal arena. Darryl commands respect and confidence among lawyers, a veritable dragon in his field. If you're seeking a lawyer for sympathy and pep talks, look elsewhere. If you want results, he's your go-to. Darryl, the Harvey Specter of Chicago, turned what could have been five years in federal prison and a hefty fine into a mere six months of probation—all thanks to him. Moreover, he goes the extra mile, answering calls on the same day, even on weekends. He diligently prepares you for court. What sets him apart is his genuine care for clients beyond monetary concerns. A testament to his character is his practice of underpromising and overdelivering—a rare trait in the legal world. Working with him for almost two years, I've witnessed firsthand the sincerity and dedication that define him. I couldn't have gotten a better result under my circumstances. View More

A favorable outcome Darryl was a dream to work with. He was fast, communicative, easy to work with, and got the job done quickly and effectively with the most favorable outcome possible. I'd highly recommend Darryl and his team to anyone looking for representation.

Excellent results! Darryl and his associate Jeff represented me in a highly complex federal case involving multiple agencies and a confidential informant spanning nearly 4 years. They were able to secure a non custodial sentence when I was facing a max of 20 years in federal prison. They were extremely professional and the defense was worth every penny! Highly recommend!!!

Outstanding Lawyer(Mr.Goldberg) I would highly recommend Mr. Goldberg to anyone needing assistance. Mr. Goldberg gave me his undivided attention not to mention listen to everything I was telling him concerning my case. I love the way he paid attention to details as well. I can honestly say he’s the best criminal defense lawyer in the Chicago area.
