What Clients Say

No parent's intention is to separate from their partner and make the grueling decision to split their family - especially not in the traumatic and dangerous manner in which I found myself. The day following my separation involving a false allegation, an unregistered fire arm, and total isolation from my children I was quickly scouring the internet and asking for referrals to a reliable and honest lawyer. By word of mouth, I was referred to the Goforth Family Law and Mediation firm where I was blessed to meet Mr. Joel Bailey. Immediately, I trusted this man could handle such a trialing case and he assured me of what he could do and the possible outcomes. Mr. Bailey worked diligently on my case, gathering every form of evidence and fact he could, calling me every step of the way with reassurance and updates. He completely set my mind at ease during the most uncertain time of my life. He was working overtime to get my ex partner and I to come to a mutual agreement while also defending me against false allegations and fighting to ensure my truth was proven in court. His confidence and strong sense of justice was easily transferable to me and left me feeling completely calm and well represented in the courtroom. In the end, Mr. Joel Bailey got me exactly the outcome I was seeking and reunited me with my children. He got my court dates advanced by 2 whole months and have my ex partner and I on cooperative terms. Thank you to Mr. Bailey for all your hard work and helping me overcome the most challenging period of my life - you truly changed my life. To anybody seeking a high value, honest, professional, determined, and empathetic lawyer, this is the man you want representing you in that courtroom.

He basically saved my life. My future is still ahead of me because of Joel. He listened and did not judge. He never made promises he couldn’t keep and his decisions regarding my case were always well thought out. I can’t imagine where I’d be if I hadn’t called and then hired Joel. He is awesome!!

Joel Bailey was a great help to me when I had no idea of what to do. He relieved my mind of stress and worry and took the reins effortlessly by appearing in court on my behalf- I didn't even have to be present. I felt confident in his ability to defend me and his expertise helped me and my family when we had so much to worry about. A huge thank you and all my appreciation 

"I am deeply grateful that I had Law Firm to help me untangle the issues surrounding my case. Their clear and direct advice made all the difference."

Unfortunately, I've made mistakes in my life that I am not proud of, but I found Joel Bailey and he's helped me get my life back together.  Tough and honest, he kept me on track and helped me when I needed it the most.  Thank you sir.

As a personal injury attorney, I send all my family matters to Joel Bailey since he has been practicing law in San Diego County and the Vista Courthouse for over 25 years. Joel will take care of you, as he has for many of my clients. I've witnessed Mr. Bailey in trial, and he's a strong advocate for his clients and his trial experience has repeatedly proved effective. Highly recommended.
