also known as Mark Gorski, Moose
Born in Utica, NY, one of 4 sons, the only Gorski to go to law school, I graduated in 1981 from Antioch School of Law in Washington, DC, moved to Tennessee to begin my legal career, and moved here to Oregon in 1987, and have been here ever since.
My chilren are grown, my wife Lynda and I have 4 Australian Shepherds, and we love to boat and be on the water as much as possible. I love beer, which helps being a duii lawyer, and music ( I'm somewhat of a stereophile ). I have had law partners, clerks, assistants and secretaries, but for the past several years I have found that being a one man operation, while exhausting, and hard work, is the best way for me to practice law. I answer my own phone, and do everything there is to do on a client's case. You hire me, you get just me. ( My wife does all the behind the scenes work on the business end of this shop, thankfully!)
I love what I do and I have worked many years and very hard to develop skills as a courtroom lawyer in traffic and criminal cases in Oregon state courts. I believe my best asset as an attorney is that I am a people person who cares very much about my clients, and I think that shows in what a lawyer does - to a judge, to a DA, and to a jury. There are many lawyers, there are very few skilled courtroom lawyers. I am a courtroom lawyer and I'm very proud of that. Thanks for reading!

Spectacular Attorney
Got a significant speeding ticket a couple years ago. Should have been an automatic license suspension with heavy fines. Mark is great! Clear and easy to communicate with through text, call, and email. Walked me through the whole case. I did everything he recommended! He worked a deal with the office...

Glad I found Mark!
I was unsure anything could be done about a ticket that included three separate charges for speed racing, reckless driving, and speeding but Mark assured me he would do his best to represent me and fight these charges. In the end he was able to negotiate a deal to drop the first two charges if I atte...

5 star lawyer
9 hours ago I hired Mark before and it was hard to tell how he did because ticket was a dismissal due to the officer not showing up to court. Got two more tickets, pretty nasty one's and decided to hire Mark again. I'm here to tell you I most definitely got my money's worth. Whether or not you will ...

Waste of money
I recieved 2 moving violations. The ticket allowed me to go to traffic school for one but the other would put the points on my license that would jeopardize my employment. I called Mark and explained my situation. I told him I'm not trying to beat the charges, i just wanted him to plead with the cour...
"Mr. Gorski is not afraid to ruffle a few feathers and won't back away from a good fight. He's the type of lawyer you want in your corner."
"Mark Gorski is not just a trial lawyer. He is a trial warrior. A gladiator. He is fearless, passionate, and always prepared to defend his clients in the courtroom."
"I endorse Mark Gorski wholeheartedly. I know and respect Mark as a friend, colleague and mentor and am one of the few who have worked on cases with him as a defense attorney and against him as a prosecutor. He is the gold standard. If you are looking for an attorney in your corner that is knowledgeable, thorough and aggressive, Mark is your man. Don't go it alone, get Mark on the case."
"Mark Gorski is, in my opinion, the best DUII trial lawyer in the State of Oregon. I have seen him win cases that I thought were unwindable. He is a relentless advocate for his clients, well respected by the judges, feared by the cops, and juries trust him when he speaks. Professional & personable."
"I have known Mr Gorski for more than a dozen years. I know him to be an attorney who works hard for his clients. Mr Gorski is dedicated to finding the strategy that will succeed. I do not hesitate to refer clients to Mr Gorski when the occasion arises."
"Peter Carini endorses Mr. Goski. Mark Goski is well known throughout legal circles in Multnomah County as an expert in DUII defense. I would not hesitate in having him represent me if I ever was busted for a DUI in Portland."
