I am Golnoush Goharzad, the owner and founder of Goharzad Law, where I specialize in personal injury and employment law for plaintiffs. My journey into the world of law began from a deeply personal placeas an immigrant who left Iran for the United States during a time of war and political struggle. I learned very early how injustice can deeply shape any nation and how pervasive inequalities and systemic issues not only disrupt individual lives but also erode trust in institutions and hinder a nations progress. This early exposure to the struggles for justice instilled in me a profound determination to advocate for those who are silenced and overlooked, ensuring that each of my clients receives compassionate and fair treatment. I firmly believe that good lawyers are born, not made. There are intrinsic characteristicsempathy, resilience, curiosity and a steadfast commitment to justicethat define the core of truly effective advocates. These qualities have guided my career and shaped my approach to law. After graduating from USC Law in 2007, I embarked on a career now spanning over 15 years, where Ive developed a reputation for heartfelt and effective advocacy. With over a decade of experience on the other side, working in insurance and corporate defense, I have gained valuable insights into the strategies and tactics used by opponents in legal disputes. In my practice, I uphold principles of diligence, empathy, and unwavering dedication to justice. My approach is marked by meticulous attention to detail and an empathetic understanding of my clients needs and challenges. As a lawyer, I strive to be more than just a legal representative; I am a steadfast ally, committed to navigating the complexities of the legal system to ensure that justice is not merely a concept, but a lived experience for each of my clients. In each case, I strive not only to win, but to empower my clients, helping them reclaim what is rightfully theirsjustice and dignity.
