Jules Conrad Goldstone (1900–1980) was an entertainment attorney who took part in the early Hollywood antitrust suits.

Born to a Jewish family,[1] Goldstone was a native of Schenectady, NY. He attended the University of Michigan Law School. Goldstone was an early Hollywood agent, representing Elizabeth Taylor,[2] director Clarence Brown, and James Thurber, among others.

With his brothers, Charles and Nat Goldstone, he founded one of the earliest boutique Hollywood talent agencies (later the Goldstone & Tobias Agency).

Goldstone was the father of the film and television director James Goldstone.
