About The Firm

(Last Updated: Wedesday, August 3, 2022)

Goodman & Baxter is a leading online reputation and crisis management firm. The company is comprised of a dedicated team of experienced journalists, attorneys, search engine optimization specialists, online marketing and digital branding experts, and public relations gurus.

Our company endeavors to assist clients ‑‑ both individuals and businesses ‑‑ with a broad range of needs when it comes to their footprint on the World Wide Web. Through our long‑standing relationships with the publishers of some of the world's largest databases of criminal justice records, we are able to offer lightning‑fast and cost‑effective solutions to those whose reputations are being damaged by negative online content.

Whereas removal of negative online content is the cornerstone of the firm's work, we offer and have delivered a full‑range of solutions for anyone looking to either improve or increase their exposure on the World Wide Web (or both).

The firm is non‑judgmental. We know that everyone makes mistakes. We are here to ensure that the mistakes our clients have made in the past do not affect their future opportunities for either personal or professional advancement. As unfair as it may seem, especially when an arrest report appears online and our client was completely exonorated on the charges, people will hold negative online information against you. And, unfortunately, many people accept as true the things they read online, even when the information is demonstrably false.

Goodman & Baxter has helped countless clients who hired us because negative online content resulted in the denial of jobs from prospective employers, apartments from prospective landlords, dates from prospective suitors, and positions on boards of directors with philantropic organizations. We cannot change the past and undo the fact that damaging online content already cost you an opportunity. However, we can work hard on your behalf to have the content removed so that it never will be seen by others.

When it comes to removing negative online content, Goodman & Baxter never keeps a client's payment if the task with which we are charged is not completed in accordance with the terms to which we have agreed. Further, we offer a lifetime guarantee that the content in question never will resurface in the same publication from which we negotiated on your behalf to have it removed.

We are not a law firm and nothing on our website should be construed as legal advice.

The partners at Goodman & Baxter founded the firm on a steadfast committment to the principle that every person in our office deserves to be treated with the highest level of both dignity and respect. We are proud of our tradition of cultivating and maintaining a work environment in which the uniqueness and diversity of each individual is recognized, valued, and celebrated. Goodman & Baxter believes that we can create important advantages for our clients from the differences brought to the fore by the individuals who make up our firm and by building upon the common goals and values we collectively share.

Our purpose is to serve our clients ethically, honestly, and effectively. That is why our stated principles reflect much more than merely the values shared within the firm ‑‑ they also reflect the expectations of our clients.

When you hire Goodman & Baxter, we know you are placing an enormous amount of trust in us. We therefore strive at all times to work diligently to protect and preserve that trust by being fully accountable for our actions.
