About Faran

Faran has been a dedicated figure in the legal profession since his admission as a solicitor in December 1996, marking over 25 years of extensive experience. As the visionary behind Gouldson Legal, founded in late 1998, Faran has consistently championed an innovative, client-focused approach to law. His firm was established with the aim of providing personalised litigation services, tailored to meet the unique needs of each client. Faran's commitment to his clients is matched by his dedication to fostering a dynamic and supportive team environment. Outside of his professional pursuits, Faran balances his time with family life, often found chauffeuring his two teenage daughters or enjoying leisurely days by the beach surfing and soaking up the Australian sun. Faran's personality and zest for life also extend to his home with his two beloved Groodles, Harriet and Hugo, who have become endearing mascots for the firm. Known for their playful antics, they add a touch of warmth and humour to the firm’s image, reflecting Faran's belief in the importance of a balanced, fulfilling life both in and out of the office.
