Mental Health Defense
The Goodman Law Office team has extensive experience in developing mental health defenses, including those related to post-traumatic stress disorder, torture and trauma. Leonard C. Goodman has won two separate acquittals using the rarely successful insanity defense on behalf of clients suffering from the effects of these experiences. We have also secured reduced sentences, diversion, and dismissal after facilitating help for our clients, including therapy and drug rehab.
