Michael L. Goldberg
A trial attorney who fights for truck accident victims
“In a trial, there are two Truths. The Truth of whatever happened to my client. And the Truth as decided by 12 jurors with their verdict. My job as a lawyer is to make sure both those Truths are the same.”
Michael L. Goldberg is a partner in the law firm of Fried Goldberg LLC who represents victims suffering catastrophic personal injuries or wrongful death throughout the Southeast, primarily in the area of trucking and commercial vehicle accidents.
Michael was born in Augusta, Georgia and played for the Division I Basketball Team at Mercer University in Macon, Georgia, where he graduated with a B.S. in Political Science in 1994. He earned his Juris Doctor from the University of Georgia in 1997.
As an attorney, he has been lead counsel for the plaintiff on 15 cases with verdicts in excess of a million dollars. He is admitted to practice law in Georgia, South Carolina, Alabama and Tennessee.
