Incredible Service from Michael Goodson and Virga Law Firm
I was in the worst place when I needed a good family lawyer. Virga Law Firm, where Michael practices, popped up in my google search when I was desperately browsing for options and leaving a law firm that wasn't doing good for me. Michael is sharp, well-educated beyond law, funny, and extremely attentive to details and the process. He makes you feel safe and secure, which is priceless when all the drama of divorce is happening. He helped me get a great deal which is another priceless element of the experience. Michael is confident, chill, and just all around balanced and professional.

Couldn’t be happier
Couldn’t have found a better lawyer for my case, Mr Goodson made it seem very easy I’m glad that I chose him. He is often busy but always had a plan and it worked very well. If you chose him have faith in him he knows what he is doing.

Michael Goodson is awesome!
Michael Goodson helped me with a civil issue in 2017. I find myself needing his services again, and have rehired him. He is a wonderful guy, very formal in the courtroom but will explain things concisely. I would recommend Mike to anyone needing civil law or family services!

Outstanding lawyer, exceptional skills, caring nature, beyond expectations
Michael Goodson has been my lawyer for almost 2 years. Our final ruling is pending so I do not actually know how things will turn out for my child custody case yet. However, I must say, that I’m extremely happy about how Michael handled my case throughout this divorce case and during deposition, trail and every day interactions. I really believe he’s the best you can find. He truly cares about his client but he also is, with no doubts, extremely highly skilled and competent. He’s a well rounded professional figure and his 360 years degree professional background really comes to light. He just didn’t provide the most realistic, professional and sensible advice he also shined during challenging times, without breaking a sweat and providing the outmost support beyond expectations. I really feel good about the fact that no matter how my case will end, he did his very best and then some to represent me in the most competent, caring, knowledgeable way he possible could. He supported me through it all, even when sometimes my opinion did not match his. Guess what? He was ALWAYS right and he was really ALWAYS looking out for my child best interest and mine. I have not enough good things to say about Mr. Goodson. I hired him after a really good search about lawyers in the area, having heard that he was the best. He is. I picked him because his professional experience with different topics, from music performance to criminal cases made him, in my eyes, the most well rounded lawyer in the area and I was not wrong. Wether or not my case end up the way I do hope and wish, I feel like he did everything he could and then some, with excellent, superior skills, that far exceeded my expectations. If you are debating about hiring a lawyer, look no forward. He’s the guy. I’m grateful that we crossed paths no matter what the ruling will be. Thank you Michael you are a true ethical talented lawyer, hard to find nowadays! Extra bonus. Should you go to trial, he can handle it extremely well and his expertise, experience, caring nature and good advice will also help you to feel like you are well represented, calm and positive about his true outstanding efforts, no matter what.

Made a horrible situation into the best outcome!

He was a straight shooter and listened to my wants. He responded back to my messages promptly and I never felt rushed when speaking with him in meetings and phone conversations. Obviously I don’t want to have reason to retain him in the future, but if so I’d come back. I recommend not only himself but his team for any future potential clients.

Michael Ray Goodson is a former assistant state attorney and now practices family law. He has always been well prepared and professional in his manner in my contacts with him. He is also active in the local Kiwanis Club and I have had the opportunity to see him in and out of court. His positive manner and civility in court and in the community is commendable and refreshing in the practice of law in Florida.
