Gold Coast Counsel, APC - An Employment Law Firm - San Diego, California

Aaron S.

I was connected with Gold Coast regarding a matter with my employer and Sarah provided incredibly helpful counsel, prompting me with many questions and angles I hadn't considered. Ultimately, she helped me evaluate my options through an easy-to-understand framework, including the pros/cons of each of my options, and a non-pushy recommendation that was clearly in my best interest (rather than Gold Coast's). She really helped clarifying my thinking and gave me stronger confidence in the direction that I decided to take with this matter. I would absolutely reach out to Gold Coast again if I ever had any employment-related issue to discuss.

If you were like me, doubting if your employment situation is worth seeking advice, you ought to make a call to Sarah.

Sarah is phenomenally above all other attorneys I've ever done consultations with. I was connected with Sarah for an employment issue that was overwhelming for me but almost felt like a lost cause.

I never felt taken for granted, like another case file lost in the mix. I've gone through attorneys who would take my money and offer tactless, incorrect advice. She had incredible empathy, was immediately available to chat about my situation like a friend. I never felt on-the-clock explaining my situation with her.

Sarah set the appropriate expectations of what I am EMPOWERED to do. I bolden the word "EMPOWERED" because she's not shoving things down my throat of what i need to exactly do. She's exploring options with me on my case, giving me honest takes of what will happen with certain strategic plays I could execute, and predicting what the opposition would do in response. There's a great level of effort in understanding my case.

After the consultation, I was more equipped and confident that I had a case. Don't wait like I did, give them a call!

Unprofessional and Dismissive – Avoid This Firm

I had an incredibly frustrating experience with Gold Coast Counsel, specifically with their lack of responsiveness and professionalism. After multiple follow-ups regarding my matter, I finally received a response, but instead of acknowledging their poor communication, they labeled me as “disgruntled” for simply expecting basic responsiveness.

This dismissive and unprofessional attitude is unacceptable, especially from a law firm. If they can’t even handle intake communications properly, I can’t imagine how they handle actual cases. I’ve attached a screenshot of their response so others can see exactly how they treat potential clients.

I would strongly advise against working with this firm if you value professionalism, communication, and respect.
