kIn 1957, Milton Goldstein and Elmer Price founded a law firm on a handshake and a commitment to professional representation of their clients. Today, lawyers at Goldstein and Price, L.C., still believe the law is a profession and should be practiced that way. 

For over 60 years, from offices overlooking the Mississippi River in St. Louis, we have represented primarily maritime clients creatively and effectively in Missouri, Illinois, Kentucky, Tennessee, Louisiana, Alabama, Wisconsin, and many other states and federal courts.

Although we began as a maritime specialty firm, we have evolved over the years to accommodate the needs of our diverse client base. For example, many companies initially retained our firm to handle maritime cases, but later asked us to litigate other disputes or guide them through business transactions or complex regulatory requirements. Agribusiness firms that originally hired us to represent their barge subsidiaries in maritime claims soon asked if we would defend them in employment discrimination cases. This expansion led to our lawyers representing them in transactions, railroad contracts, and regulatory matters as well. 

We branched out into related areas of practice to meet the needs of clients with thorough, professional representation. The commitment and results provided to our clients are shown through the decades-long client relationships we have with insurers, manufacturers, terminal operators, fleeting companies, harbor service operators, marine construction contractors, and more.
