Exceptional Attorney

Having worked with 5 other attorneys I feel quite qualified to provide a thorough review. Ms. Farook is an absolute professional and practices with confidence and impeccable ethics. She was incredibly prompt, thorough, and knowledgeable about all elements of my case. Not once did I have to repeat inf...ormation and she came prepared for every meeting as well as every appearance in court. She took an immense amount of stress out of a very stressful situation. I could not give her a higher recommendation.

Outstanding

I retained Ms farook last minute and since I've had very bad prior experiences with attorneys I was skeptical. But Ms Farook is outstanding, attentive, thorough, kind and honest. My case is far from over and a few more court appearances may be necessary, but at least I know I can rely on her 110% a...nd be by my side during a stressful time. She doesn't tell you what you want to hear, she tells you what is rational and realistic. Bravo Ms Farook and thank you!

Very professional, first rate, outstanding.

What really stands out for me about Ms Farook is how knowledgeable and professional she is but at the same time very understanding about what her clients are going through. She is very, very thorough. I was struck about how passionate she is about getting a very fair result in a timely manner and how... she wants her clients protected from post litigation. The Final Judgement she wrote for my case was iron clad. This protected both parties, not just myself. Ms Farook, once again, thank you.

Quick response

I was in desperate need of an attorney when I walked into Mrs Farooks office as I had to remove my existing counsel on short notice, Goushia wasted no time and got up to speed quickly on my case, all the way through she had the answers when I asked questions, she always called or emailed me back ASAP..., she is very professional and made me feel like I was her only client, in court she carries herself very well, and knows her way around, I always felt like I had the better lawyer when I looked around the courtroom, I hope I never need her service again but I would and will recommend Goushia to anyone in need, my case ended up in my favor due to Goushia expertise in the art of negotiations. Thank you.

A great attorney

I never needed an attorney before so I was a little nervous and confused about what I really needed. A very good friend recommended Goushia Farook and I am so glad he did and I called her. She made me feel very comfortable and always made sure I understood everything and really took her time to expl...ain everything to me. I feel so grateful to have had Goushia Farook represent me, she was very efficient ,dedicated, professional and had a great personality. I am really thankful to Goushia for all the work and time she put into my case. I truly believe Goushia always had my best interest at heart. I very highly recommend her.
