Mark Steven Gouras

I have used Mark Gouras and his staff for respresentation during my divorce and then again for a family law case. Mark has years of experience regarding family law, which proved to be a positive outcome for my case. We are impressed by his knowledge and honesty about family law. He explained the proc...ess in terms I could understand throughout this difficut time in my life. I would definitely recommend Mark and his staff for any family law cases.

I haired Mark after consulting with four other lawyers. Although I liked the outcomes some of them predicted for my case, I wanted to understand the law and know my rights since I am not from this country. Mark is very honest, knowledgable, up-front and hard working lawyer. He will not hold your hand...s but he will make your options very clear. In mediations and court Mark was always well prepared and organized and I felt I was in good hands. My children and I are very happy with our new life. Thanks to Mark and his excellent assistant Morgan.

I have engaged Mark's services in two custody cases and he has been nothing short of excellent. Most importantly, I have been extremely pleased with the outcomes of both cases. Both were highly contentious and one involved significant jurisdictional complexity. As a father, my primary goal was to obt...ain fair/equal time with my children, and fair child support, both of which had to be fought for, and Mark was a terrific and very effective advocate for this outcome. Other things worth noting about working with Mark and his firm: Mark is willing and very able to work remotely. I didn't even meet Mark in person throughout the entire duration of my first custody case, and he put me at ease that even from afar, he was by my side and fully on my team. Mark is also extremely no-nonsense, and always made me feel that he was looking out for my time - and hence my money - by getting to the point and down to business, and being efficient with my time. He is a very straight-shooter and I was highly confident in his perspective and advice. Mark has extensive experience in this field, and working in the local legal system, and his knowledge and relationships proved to be a significant asset time and again. Finally, Mark has a small but great team of professional, kind, responsive and capable people and I felt extremely well taken care of by them, whether dealing with the front desk, paralegals, or Mark and his partner. Mark and his team get my highest and unqualified recommendation.

Mark clearly understood my concerns and the specific issues of the dissolution of a long-term marriage at retirement age. He and his paralegal, Morgan, were sensitive to the emotional aspects of my decision, while at the same time working for me at a high level of professionalism throughout the enti...re process. While there is clearly "no winner" in a dissolution, I believe my interests were fairly served and my future secured in the best possible manner.
