Compassionate Advocate. Strategic Litigator. Miami Grown.
Janet Gorguis is a dedicated and tenacious attorney proudly serving the people of Florida in the areas of family law, personal injury, and civil litigation. Raised in the heart of Miami-Dade, Janet’s commitment to her community is deep-rooted and personal. From an early age, she was immersed in the world of injury claims and legal services through her family’s business, igniting
a lifelong passion for justice and advocacy.
After graduating from St. Brendan High School, Janet went on to earn dual Bachelor of Science degrees in Psychology and Criminal Justice from Florida International University. This unique academic blend laid the foundation for her client-centered, psychologically intuitive approach to litigation—balancing legal precision with emotional intelligence.
Janet earned her Juris Doctor from Florida Coastal School of Law in 2013, where she participated in the Family Law Clinic and developed a deep affinity for helping families navigate some of life’s most difficult transitions. Her early legal experiences gave her insight not only into the courtroom but into the complex emotions and high stakes involved in every case.
She is a proud member of The Florida Bar and is licensed to practice before the Florida Supreme Court. Since admission, Janet has spent her career fighting for the rights of clients who have been injured, wronged, or find themselves in the midst of emotionally charged family disputes.
She is known for her strategic advocacy, transparent communication, and unwavering loyalty to her clients.
Whether she is negotiating a favorable personal injury settlement, crafting a timesharing plan in a high-conflict custody case, or litigating a divorce involving complex assets, Janet brings integrity, clarity, and relentless focus to every matter she handles.
When she’s not in the courtroom or at mediation, Janet is active in her daughter’s school community, leads parent initiatives, and enjoys balancing her fast-paced legal work with the joy of raising her family in the city that raised her.
