A Caring and solid partner with Integrity

I was referred Attorney Farook by her Managing Attorney, William Bratton - what a gift! Attorney Farook was not only responsive and sensitive to my situation. Her professionalism and attention to detail was impressive. I thought I knew exactly what I needed, however this did not deter her from he...lping me to see and understand other options that I had not thought about upfront. When I asked difficult questions, I received honest and direct answers- however she always did her best to meet and even exceed my desires and expectations, while not over promising. As her client i was left with the overriding feeling that she is always working in your best interests and cares. I can only but highly recommend Attorney Farook for anyone looking for someone they can trust and depend on.

Goushia is The BEST!

Goushia is the BEST on so many different levels, both professionally and personally. We retained Goushia on a guardianship case once the judge ordered it to trial. Although the case seemed it was easy enough, it became complex near the end. Our prior counsel, was unable to comprehend the case, and be...gan to act unethically. We sought out another attorney, and many were not willing to take on a guardianship case. Initially speaking with Goushia, I knew I wanted her to represent us. She was very clear in what she has to offer, yet very humble! Yes....HUMBLE! Her accomplishments are awesome coupled with a 60% success rate, and her story is even more amazing. It gets better.....In working with Goushia, she could sense my anxiety and frustration, and knew how to "reel" me back in, keeping me focused on the case. She reviewed our case in a couple weeks, and knew the dynamics and ALL of the players quite well. She never made senseless emails/calls generating bills, and strategically gathered information at one given time. She's transparent, compassionate and well-versed for court. I would hire her 10x's over. I pray that she be blessed in health, wealth and spirit!!

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.
