Mr. Gould was immediately accessible and understood and advised on my situation expertly. Felt very comfortable he was experienced, skilled and had my best interests at heart. He was kind to follow up with an email emphasing and further outlining important points. I consider myself very fortunate to had the benefit of Mr. Gould's professional services!

Evan did an excellent job of representing me and helping me throughout my EDD hearing. His experience and knowledge of unemployment laws and policies were evident from the beginning. His input for what to prepare and send to the judge was excellent and I believe instrumental in my winning the decision. He also prepared me for what to expect at the hearing. A+ all the way. Highly recommended

I called Evan Gould with questions regarding my unemployment case. He was very informative and helped me work through what I needed to do and say in regards to my case even though he had no obligation to as no money was exchanged. He even went the extra step and emailed me more info to help me. Thanks for the exemplary assistance!

Highly Recommended Attorney. Mr. Gould assisted in ensuring a comprehensive review and validating client experience. He is a pleasure to speak with and was absolutely professional when sharing guidance regarding employment documentation. If you are ever unsure and need some legal consultation, contact Evan Gould at The Gould Firm!

A company offered me a new job and sent an offer letter. Some phrases there caught my attention and I asked Evan for possible legal ramifications. Evan explained them and pointed out hidden pitfalls that I completely missed. The company wrote me a completely new contract addressing all my concerns. Thank you Evan!

A experience lawyer who treated me with respect and walked me through the legal consultation. He totally changed my perception of lawyers I dealt with in the pass.

My experience with Mr. Gould was a positive one. He is very knowledgeable and helped me to navigate through some tough decisions. I wound up with a positive outcome after leaving a position with my previous employer. Mr. Gould was an excellent intermediary, and alleviated a lot of stress for me. He's also very honest and fair. After working with Mr. Gould I realized that attorneys don't get enough appreciation from people. He saved me from a lot of wasted time and aggravation, and helped to make a negative experience much more positive!

I have used Evan Gould multiple times over the last 12+ years . Evan has always done a great job and has never let me down. He stays in contact with me and is a fair and diligent Attorney . I would highly recommend Mr. Gould if you need an Attorney who works with integrity and a straight forward approach.

I’m not all together satisfied with how my case concluded. But, I believe Mr. Gould did everything that was possible. I was immediately comfortable with Mr. Gould. His desire to help me was apparent, from our initial meeting. It’s only because of circumstances beyond his control, that the case ended the way it did. I am quite pleased with the efforts of Mr. Gould. If ever I need legal assistance again, Mr. Evan Gould will be the first call I make. I wholeheartedly trust his advice. Thanks again, Evan. You made an uncomfortable situation easier to navigate.

I was let go by my company after many years of service. I was offered a severance package, but to get it I would have to sign away every conceivable right I might have in the future against the company for any reason. Now in my early sixties and facing a challenge at finding equivalent pay in another position, I wondered if I had any cause of action against the company, or whether I might be able to negotiate for an improved severance package. I called several law offices with specialties in employment law, discrimination, and related topics. Some wanted to just sit down with me and review my documents on the fly with no preparation. Mr. Gould's assistant told me Mr. Gould would not only review the materials I had ahead of time, but would perform research on the company before sitting down with me to discuss my options. On top of that, his rate was competitive. On that basis I committed to hiring Mr. Gould. When I spoke to Mr. Gould, he asked a number of relevant questions to make sure he had a clear understanding of my situation. We discussed whether I had cause for an action against the company and whether I should negotiate for a better severance package. On Mr. Gould's advice I prepared a letter to the company, and Mr. Gould reviewed it for me. The company responded with an improved offer, but not what I had hoped for. Once again I sought Mr. Gould's counsel, and once again went back to the company with a counter proposal. In the end I had a package that was worth significantly more than the original offer. Having Mr. Gould on my side gave me the confidence to negotiate. For me, hiring him was the right thing to do, and I recommend him without reservation to anyone in a similar situation.

I am so glad I hired Evan Gould! He was the first person I called after I was let go from my previous company, in the summer of 2019. I found Evan after a brief Google search for an “employment lawyer in San Diego”. Evan represents to me what the ideal lawyer should be: extremely knowledgeable of the law, but soft-spoken and personable instead of pushy or arrogant. His approach was just perfect, as it balanced an optimism of the possibilities, with a realism of how hard we should negotiate with my former employer. I couldn’t have asked for a better outcome, in terms of my termination. And I made a friend for life in the process too! For his legal expertise and especially for his human side, I wholeheartedly recommend Evan Gould.
