Carrie A. Goldberg      

Attorney & Founder of Victims’ Rights Law Firm C.A. Goldberg, PLLC; Author of "Nobody’s Victim: Fighting Psychos, Stalkers, Pervs, & Trolls"; Sexual Crime Victims Advocate

Carrie A. Goldberg is an American lawyer specializing in sexual assault crimes with her law firm C.A. Goldberg PLLC, where she advocates for victims’ rights. She is the author of "Nobody's Victim: Fighting Psychos, Stalkers, Pervs, and Trolls."

Goldberg has represented five clients who described sexual abuse committed by Harvey Weinstein, the former Democrat Member of Congress Katie Hill after her naked photos were published in the media, and the author Emma Cline after an ex-partner sued for plagiarism. Her legal cases with low-profile individuals—involving revenge porn, intimate partner violence and online abuse—often draw national media attention.

Goldberg is opposed to Section 230 of the U.S. Communications Decency Act (CDA), which exempts websites from being liable for third-party content; her case against Grindr for negligence was rejected for this reason. She has criticized the New York City Department of Education's responses to reports of sexual violence by students and has represented such students.

Goldberg experienced significant sexual violence, which motivated her to start her law firm in 2014. Prior to this, she worked with Holocaust survivors for several years and in property and guardianship law. Her legal career and life experiences are the subject of her book “Nobody's Victim” (2019), which also describes other famous cases of sexual violence by "psychos, stalkers, pervs, and trolls".
