Goldberg from general practitioners who rarely see the inside of a courtroom.

Reach the office at 1 661-294-9123, with hours from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm daily.
Before law, Seth Goldberg served as a Lieutenant Colonel in the California National Guard, commanded an Armor battalion in Iraq for a year, and graduated from the U.S. Army War College. He is on the promotion list for full Colonel. That background is not decorative context: it reflects someone accustomed to high-stakes decisions, structured planning, and operating under pressure. Those qualities carry directly into complex litigation.
