Client Testimonials
I was in a crazy car accident back in 22, was not sure who I would have to handle my case. I wanted someone who was experienced and was not just money hungry. I did a ton of research and decided to go with Goodwin and Scieszka in November. Since the first day, they have been dotting all I’s and crossing all T’d in my case. Making sure I get EVERYTHING I am entitled [to]. They are patient, understanding but a fire ball when need be on the behalf of their client. It’s very reassuring to know you have someone actually fighting on your behalf. They are more than just my Attorney, they are my family. Goodwin and Scieszka for the WIN!!
Dog bite lawyers aren’t anti-dog, we’re pro-responsible pet ownership. Recently a client who was unfortunately the victim of a dog bite very generously donated a portion of her settlement to the Humane Society of Macomb to help their mission of saving animals and placing them with responsible pet owners. Our clients inspire us in many ways, and this client using a negative situation to give back to the community is one great example!
We have known you and your group for about four years now and we will always remember the difference God has used you to make in our lives. We don’t just want to say thank you, rather we are saying with our whole hearts thank you and God bless you, add more wisdom and knowledge to your expertise. Congratulations on your top position among [peers] as always.
Just want to make sure that you, Scott and your entire staff know how thankful I am for giving me another chance. We went the best way possible. It enabled me, as I’m sure so many others, the ability to try to get better and not succumb to the situation.
I have renewed hope. Someone else may have had me throw the towel in and wait for the reward.
You have been top notch all the way through our case! Your performance as we went through trial was exemplary! We knew we were in good hands. Thank you for all you did for our family!
We the entire members of the Ogbuaku family here-by thank you for the help you and your knowledgeable team have selflessly rendered to us since our accident on July 10, 2015. You and your team were the only team who could understand us when no one did…It has been a journey of your legal team’s selfless service to us, an experience of a lifetime.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you.

I am writing to express my extreme gratitude for being chosen again to receive the Goodwin & Scieszka Innovation Scholarship. I am so thankful for your support. I have had access to a lot more opportunities and resources as a student at the University of Portland. I am pursuing a double major of Political Science and Spanish with law school on the horizon. And I am getting the chance to study abroad as a requirement for my Spanish major. I leave for Granada, Spain in August where I will be participating in a language immersion program. The foundation I have built at University of Portland will help me to apply to a reputable law school.

In light of the ever-increasing cost of college, this gracious gift will undoubtedly cement my place at Lipscomb University, which I will be attending in a matter of weeks.

“In regards to personal injury attorneys, Mr. Goodwin is the finest. His tenacity, intellect, and compassion are what make him an exceptional attorney. When he first took on my case, he assured me that I had nothing to worry about other than getting well. He kept me well informed throughout the entire legal process, explained things very thoroughly, and was always available whenever I had a question or concern. Not once did I feel like I was just another case to Mr. Goodwin. I know that he genuinely cares about my well-being. He worked tirelessly until the case settled. If it weren’t for Mr. Goodwin, I would not have gotten the justice I deserved. I would recommend him to anyone seeking a personal injury attorney because he puts the client’s needs and future first. If you’re seeking an attorney that will deliver winning results, Mr. Goodwin is the attorney you want standing by your side.”

“This is a small note but it is filled with much gratitude for the opportunity to attend your 18th annual WMUZ law day. I had wanted to thank you personally but I needed to leave promptly after meeting with the very kind attorney. That is truly a wonderful service that you have provided for so many of us; may you and all those attorneys who offended their assistance, be blessed!”

Thank you from the bottom of my heart and may all your good come back to you!”

“My husband and I cannot thank you enough for your “pro-bono” generosity. Your kindness to a complete stranger humbles me. Please accept this gift as a very small token of our appreciation”

“My name is Chris Dancer. You recently wrote a letter for me to help excuse me from jury duty. I am writing you this thank-you note to say I am very grateful to you for taking the time from your busy day to help me. It’s not often you find someone like you these days. The letter worked and I’m excused until next year. You’ve help to take a huge burden off my shoulders. I can now relax and enjoy my son for the first time. Thank you SO much for helping me.”
Chris Dancer
“I wanted to take time to “thank you” for all you did for me during my recent lawsuit against Mr. Sherman. I don’t think in a situation where someone was injured, you ever can be reimbursed for the “pain and suffering” you are caused. I personally would like to have seen Mr. Sherman not allowed back on the road to injure someone again, or worse maybe even kill someone. But I guess that is now in the Lord’s hands. No one wants their independence taken away from them, but when your track record starts shooing you are having more accidents and are beginning to cause injury in those accidents, maybe it is time to start reevaluating your ability to drive safely and decide on another mode of transportation. Being at the Mediation, I could see I never would have gotten for myself the amount finally agreed upon, without the help of a lawyer. Sure, it would have been nice to receive more considering what I have been through thus far and have to go through yet in the future. But I feel I received what the Lord intended me to receive at this time, so I have no complaints. I have to admit, it is a real “legal jungle” out there… I hope I never have to endure it again. But if I do, please know I would definitely give you a call! Thank you again Scott, and may God bless you in your service to those in need of legal council, to your family, and most of all with good health now and in the future.”

“We just wanted to thank you again for all the help you’ve been in helping us deal with the matter we discussed over the phone involving that university in Iowa. Your demeanor is very polite, professional, warm and friendly, and put me at ease right away. I especially appreciate how you avoid a lot of leave language that is over the heads of the general public. Your advice on appropriate procedure and the directory of Iowa attorneys you sent were extremely helpful. If we or any of our family or friends need any legal assistance in the areas in which your firm specializes, we will remember you. Thanks again.”
Juliete Parker
“I just wanted to take the time to thank your entire staff for the fantastic free legal seminar they presented recently, to listeners of WMUZ Radio Station. Your staff was not only extremely knowledgeable, but were sincere, feeling, concerned, friendly and human. I can’t express how appreciative I am for the help your staff gave me. I left your office feelings great. Please let each member of your staff know that they are tops. I’ll never use any other legal first other than yours again.”
Mark A. Resch
“Just a note to let you know how much my wife Mary and I appreciated your service in regards to seeking compensation from damages related to my car accident. First, initially after the accident, you arranged for me to receive tort and other money related to initial expenses. This came in handy since I had to miss work for three weeks. You did this for no compensation knowing that my claim may have not ended in an award. Your knowledge of current events related to the Michigan Court System came into play in a very timely way. The filing of my suit was done at the right moment and led to our very fair settlement. We value you as a knowledgeable friend in the practice of the law and wish you and your firm success in your future endeavors. Please continue to support the Bob Dutko program on WMUZ, we are listeners and this is how we came to know about you.”
Rob & Mary Mullins
“Thanks for representing us & getting the settlement. Now we can get the rest of the creditors off our back! We appreciate the work you have done on our behalf and will recommend you to anyone who is in need of legal assistance.”
Rob & Amy Levos
“Just wanted to send you a card to let you know of the appreciation that I have for you and your staff in the personal care you showed me in regards to my case. You have been very honest, trusting and informative which, I hold with great respect and adoration. If anyone that I ever come into contact with needs an attorney, you will be the only one that I will refer. I also appreciate your belief in God and his will being the effect and actuality of all things which brings me to the verse, Mark 9:23 Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth. Again, I’m thankful that through WMUZ 103.5 FM that God lead and direct me to you. i can only give him the Honor and Glory for bringing me through this ordeal. On the issue of State Farm Insurance Company please let me know what your decision is on if we should pursue them for five months of lost wages and benefits that I feel i’m entitle too. But this I will leave this decision up to you. please feel free to call me at ***-***-**** in regards to your decision”
