His workload includes personal injury cases related to motor vehicle accidents, premises liability, nursing home neglect and sexual abuse.

He also remains active in the legal community and maintains several memberships in law organizations, such as the Chester County Bar Association and the Pennsylvania Association for Justice.
Mr. Goldberg has been licensed to practice in Pennsylvania since 2012. Since then, he has won several multimillion-dollar settlements and verdicts for his clients.
