Firm Information

In 2001, Goldberg Segalla was founded as a modern, refreshing alternative to the typical law firm. Today, we are proud to serve as national trial counsel for Fortune 100 companies, and have an ongoing history of success.

Every day at Goldberg Segalla, we are guided by our mission to be a Best Practices firm. We pride ourselves on following client guidelines and exceeding client expectations. Our focus is on quality over quantity – which is why we do not have a minimum billing requirement for our attorneys, alleviating the pressures that many other firms put on their attorneys to maximize billing. As recognition of this practice, our firm was one of the first in the nation to be invited into the Council for Ethical Billing, now known as the Council on Litigation Management. We have also invested in Best Practices in numerous other ways, including implementing systems that reward the team over the individual, thereby helping us achieve our goal of exceptional client service.
