Judge Jeffrey A. Goodstein - Professional Background & Legal Expertise

Biography

The Hon. Jeffrey A. Goodstein is an Acting Justice of the Nassau County Supreme Court in the Tenth Judicial District of New York. He was appointed to the Supreme Court bench in 2012 by the Hon. A. Gail Prudenti, former Chief Administrative Judge of the State of New York. While on the Supreme Court, Justice Goodstein has served as the supervising judge of its Matrimonial Center. He has also served as a judge for the New York State Court of Claims since being appointed to the seat by former Governor Andrew Cuomo in 2012. He was reappointed to the Court of Claims by Governor Cuomo in 2014.

Justice Goodstein received his B.F.A. from Ithaca College in 1989. He went on to earn his J.D. from Touro College Jacob D. Fuchsberg Law Center in 1997.

After graduating from law school, Goodstein briefly practiced as an associate at Rubin, Cooper, and Burns before then becoming an attorney with the Nassau County Department of Social Services in 1998.

His time there was also brief, as he then joined the New York State Unified Court System later that same year. During his twelve-year tenure with the Unified Court System, Goodstein served for two years as a court attorney for the Nassau County Family Court before then becoming a principal law clerk to the Hon. Kenneth A. Davis with the Nassau County Supreme Court in 2000. In 2008, he became the principal law clerk to the Hon. Anthony Marano, the administrative judge for the Nassau County Supreme Court. Then, in 2010, he began a two-year tenure as a court attorney referee for the Nassau County Supreme Court. Goodstein was serving in that capacity at the time of his appointment to the Court of Claims.

He has also served as an adjunct professor at St. John’s University School of Law and a guest lecturer at Hofstra University, Maurice A. Deane School of Law and Touro College Jacob D. Fuchsberg Law Center.

He has been a member of the Board of Directors of the Nassau County Bar Association.
