Ethical. Aggressive. Trusted.
There are a lot of lawyers out there to choose from. Goodman Acker is a better choice every time. Many law firms advertise their personal touch and care for their clients but when they take your case, you find yourself shuffled from one lawyer to another. Goodman Acker’s philosophy is different. You will work with one legal team from start to finish: one attorney, one paralegal, and one assistant. You will have direct phone numbers to reach your team. They will get to know you and your family, and you won’t feel like a number.
Barry J. Goodman is more than just a Detroit personal injury attorney; he’s a dedicated advocate committed to ensuring equal access to justice. With a career spanning decades, Goodman has tirelessly fought to keep courthouse doors open for victims seeking recompense. Inspired by his father’s own struggle for justice after a work-related accident, Goodman’s passion for law was ignited from a young age.
Graduating with honors from Stetson University College of Law in 1977, Goodman blazed a career path driven by a profound sense of purpose. He sharpened his skills in Florida before rooting in Michigan, where he co-founded his own practice alongside like-minded attorney Gerald H. Acker in 1993.
Throughout his illustrious career, Goodman has been instrumental in securing substantial settlements for his clients. Notably, in 2001, he achieved a landmark $14.5-million arbitration award for a client injured by a faulty manhole cover—an outcome emblematic of his dedication to justice.
Beyond the courtroom, Goodman has been deeply involved in politics, supporting candidates who champion civil justice reform. His contributions extend to various Democratic campaigns, including those of Governor Granholm, Senator Debbie Stabenow, Congressman Gary Peters, and President Joe Biden, among others. He’s also been an active delegate to multiple Democratic National Conventions and currently holds a position on the Resolutions Committee of the Democratic National Committee as the Vice-Chair of the Midwest Caucus.
