DERBY, McGUINNESS & GOLDSMITH LLP

I have personally known as well as having been represented by Mr. Goldsmith for many years. The passion for justice, fairness and access is lived every day by Mr. Goldsmith. This transfers to his representation of person's with disability and those who have been unjustly discriminated against in the courtroom. Mr. Goldsmith's character and dedication to the practice of law is of the highest caliber. Best of all, Mr. Goldsmith's heart is invested in his clients.

I have known Steve Derby for over 25 years, since we shared office space in Walnut Creek.  I am a civil appeals attorney.   We would discuss our cases with each other and hold moot courts for our cases on a number of occasions.  Steve has, as long as I've known him, vigorously, effectively, and in the most ethical manner, fought for the rights of those injured by the fault of others, or who were discriminated against due to their disability.  I know Steve's family and I know the issue of disability is personal and close to his heart.  Years ago I referred my daughter to Steve for a personal injury matter and would not hesitate to recommend someone now who has encountered wrongful barriers based on their disability.

I've enjoyed the services of Atty Anthony Goldsmith for nearly a decade. Not only does he provide insightful courses of action in which to take, he's fully aware of all existing laws in the area of one's need. He's, no doubt, one of the best Civil Rights and Disability Rights attorneys in the state of California, if not the nation. Of the thousands of professionals I've met in a handful of careers that I've had, my only wish is that they all would have had his competence, his skill level, and his positive moral compass. I would recommend his legal services to anyone who has been 'wronged' in any situation.
