Stuart Goldberg, Lindsay Lohan
Stuart Goldberg, the attorney who, during the weekend, we heard was going to take on Lindsay Lohan’s case, has decided against it.
Goldberg says his reason is that he doesn’t feel that Lindsay Lohan is aware of the consequences that she faces, nor does she want to be.
Over the weekend Stuart Goldberg met with Lohan for six hours in her apartment, accompanied by Lohan’s mother, Dina, and sister, Ali. He discussed Lindsay’s case with her, answered questions and asked a few of his own. Afterward he decided against representing her.
Goldberg told People magazine: “My impression of Lindsay is that she’s a fragile lost child – a sleeping beauty with her head in the sand. I found her not fully forewarned of the consequence of her actions. I’m concerned that she’s not disciplined or tethered enough to the reality of adult consequences. She doesn’t seem to have the awareness of what’s going to befall her.”
He said he insisted that Lindsay have “100 percent loyalty” and that he has a “zero tolerance for dishonesty.” But that despite their discussions, and Lindsay’s past, the family still did not “understand the urgency and gravity of the situation.”
Goldberg says that during the meeting Ali Lohan asked “astute” questions and that Lindsay took notes writing diagonally across a piece of paper, similar to how she did while in court last week.
Goldberg adds that he worries that Lindsay is “in a dangerous state.” He says that he does feel that she is legitimately suffering within. “She started sobbing quietly. She was genuinely in pain,” he said.
He advised Lohan to move out of Los Angeles, telling her the obvious, that it is a “toxic environment for her,” but she wanted no part of it. In fact, he said that “she was like Teflon to that comment. It just slid right off her. She seemed to have some inner deep sadness that that was her fate.”
Stuart Goldberg says his main concern is that the legal system cannot help her with her deep rooted problems. “My real worry for her is not just the jail time, but my fear is that she’s overly susceptible to a probation system that’s set up for her to fail.”
Kudos to Stuart Goldberg. He sounds genuinely concerned for her well being, and as many of us can see, he also knows that Lindsay has never had any real consequences for anything in her life. Or guidance for that matter. She has absolutely no coping skills and has been living in a world where she calls all the shots. It’s been that way since she was a child. No one has ever disciplined her, told her no or taught her right from wrong. Goldberg also knows that the courts cannot do all this for her, and that jail and rehab cannot even begin to heal the wounded child within.
It is so easy to rag on Lindsay, call her a spoiled brat and laugh at her situation. But it’s just so sad. I agree with Goldberg when he says she is a fragile child. It’s true. She is still that little girl lost.

She is a fragile child…I hope she takes this stand to receive treatment so that she can move on in life now.
Obviously a publicity stunt. He is working for her. Trying to drum up sympathy to get her out of jail time. I agree with what he said, but if he is so concerned he would have kept her as a client. But because he didn’t he can say whatever he wants about her. Did her old attorney say a word about her after she dumped the coke queen? No, because it would have been all negative. Its a sham. A lindsey losham.
There is nothing fragile about this manipulative skank. Except maybe her nasty hair.
she is NOT a child…she just behaves like one.
Jail time is just what she needs and it’s time she face up to the hard knocks of life.
More manipulation. There are lots of people in the system who are “fragile”. They grew up in crap situations with crackheads for mothers and god knows who fathers. Nobody feels sorry for them when they get locked up.
If she is that fragile, she belongs in a hospital and after she is back on planet earth…then you can toss her in jail to serve her sentence. Maybe then she will learn to behave.
