About Our Firm

The Law Offices of Albert Goodwin, PLLC is a boutique divorce and family law firm serving New York City and the surrounding suburbs. Since our founding in 2008, we have dedicated ourselves to helping individuals and families navigate divorce, custody, support, and matrimonial matters with confidence and dignity.

Direct Attorney Representation

When you hire our firm, you work directly with lead attorney Albert Goodwin. Unlike larger firms where your case may be passed between associates and paralegals, Attorney Goodwin personally handles every case from start to finish. This means you receive the focused attention and experienced counsel your matter deserves.

Our Practice Areas

Our firm concentrates on divorce and related family law matters, allowing us to provide a depth of knowledge that general practice firms cannot match. Our areas of focus include:

• Uncontested Divorce – Streamlined divorces where both spouses agree on the major terms.
• Contested Divorce – Full-service representation through preliminary conferences, discovery, motions, settlement, and trial.
• Child Custody & Visitation – Securing and defending legal and physical custody arrangements in Supreme Court and Family Court.
• Child Support – Calculating support under the Child Support Standards Act, add-ons, deviations, and modifications.
• Spousal Maintenance – Temporary and post-divorce maintenance under New York's statutory formulas.
• Equitable Distribution – Division of real estate, retirement accounts, businesses, and marital debts.
• Legal Separation – Formal separation agreements as an alternative to immediate divorce.
• Prenuptial & Postnuptial Agreements – Drafting, reviewing, and challenging marital agreements.

Serving the New York City Metropolitan Area

We represent clients throughout New York County (Manhattan), Kings County (Brooklyn), Queens County, Bronx County, and Richmond County (Staten Island), as well as Nassau, Suffolk, and Westchester counties. Whatever borough or county your matter is venued in, we know the local Supreme Court matrimonial part and Family Court practices.

Our Philosophy

We believe that every client deserves direct access to their attorney, honest case assessments, and tailored legal strategies. Divorce and custody matters are deeply personal, and we treat each case with the sensitivity and discretion it requires. Our philosophy is straightforward: provide knowledgeable counsel, keep our clients informed at every stage, and fight for the best possible outcome for them and their children.
