About Jeff T. Gorman

Jeff T. Gorman's path to becoming one of the Treasure Coast's most respected trial attorneys is unlike most. Before law school, he studied engineering at Penn State — a discipline that trained him to think analytically, recognize patterns, and stress-test every argument. He graduated in 1996 with dual degrees in Economics and Political Science, then spent three years at a Washington, D.C. law firm where he handled hundreds of federal ERISA litigation cases across the country. That federal litigation experience — before he ever set foot in law school — shaped his command of evidence, procedure, and negotiation.

After earning his J.D. from Catholic University Columbus School of Law in 2001 — where he interned for a U.S. District Court judge and the U.S. Department of Justice Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs Section — Jeff entered the Florida court system from both sides. He served as a public defender in Lee County, where he built a reputation for aggressive client advocacy and earned an early acquittal in a First Degree Attempted Murder with a Firearm case when the evidence appeared overwhelming. He then crossed to the prosecution side, joining the State Attorney's Office for the 19th Judicial Circuit.

As a prosecutor, Jeff handled more felony jury trials to verdict than any other attorney in the district. Murder. DUI Manslaughter. Drug trafficking. Serious violent felonies across St. Lucie, Miami-Dade, Lee, and Monroe Counties. That depth of trial experience — trying cases the state considered unwinnable — gave him an unmatched understanding of how criminal cases are constructed, where they are vulnerable, and how to dismantle them from the defense side.

In 2008, Jeff left the State Attorney's Office to run for State Legislature and simultaneously founded Jeff T. Gorman Law Offices. Since then, he has represented clients in criminal defense, personal injury, and family law — bringing the same relentless preparation to every case. He remains actively engaged in Treasure Coast political and civic organizations and is admitted to both the Florida Bar and the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida.

I called the Law office of Jeff T. Gorman. Tiffany answered, I explained my situation to her. I was paranoid, thinking I lost 17 years in a professional career, because of one mistake. Within four minutes into the conversation, she explained everything to me. I hired them with easy. Less than two weeks, my case everything was DROPPED. Tiffany is fast, straight to the point and she’s not here to play games. She will get the job done!

Simply the Best!!! I was fortunate enough to be represented by Mr. Walsh and Mr. Gorman . They are aggressive and experienced criminal defense attorneys. They have what it takes to win a case, knowledge and determination. That is exactly the outcome i received. They are empathetic and listen to your fears and concerns. I could not thank these two gentleman enough. They are truly an asset to their profession. If you are in a situation whuch you are in need of skilled legal counsel, look no further. You have come to the right place. They also have adequate staff available to speak with you at any time. I could never thank these two men enough

I think they need more paralegals, as they soft the load for the attorney and also answer questions. I had a good experience with Joe, He knows his stuff when it comes to Family law. my ex was claiming fraud ect ect and two hearings later bang it was dismiss. If they had another paralegal, i think they would be even better. Thank you for the help and explaining all the laws and possible outcomes and remember u can not win them all, do not matter who the lawyer name is, keep that in mind when u hired a lawyer. THANK YOU KEEP THE GOOD WORK

My experience with this attorney was extremely disappointing. The initial retainer and fees requested were many times higher than I reasonably expected for the matter involved. I felt blindsided by the size of the deposit and never believed the value provided justified the amount charged. Throughout the process, I became increasingly concerned that billing seemed to take priority over client service and results. As a business owner who regularly works with professionals across many industries, I understand the importance of paying for expertise. However, there is a significant difference between fair compensation and what I experienced here. In my opinion, the constant focus on fees made him seem like a blood-sucking attorney. Based on my experience, I would not hire this attorney again, nor would I recommend him to friends, family, or business associates. Before retaining this firm, I strongly suggest obtaining a detailed written fee agreement, understanding exactly what services ar

BEWARE of Jeff T. Gorman!!! I have to give him 1 star to post a review, but he deserves ZERO! I contacted multiple ex-clients of his with the same unfortunate results. Once he has your money he will not do his job to fight for you! He currently has multiple complaints with the Florida Bar. He and his associate Chris Walsh will tell you everything you want to hear, but once they are paid, they don't care about you or your freedom. These guys are conmen who work for the state. Our system is corrupt and broken and crooked attorneys like these two are part of the problem. If you value your money or your freedom, NO MATTER WHAT THE FAKE 5 STAR REVIEWS READ, DO NOT HIRE Chris Walsh or Jeff T. Gorman!!!

Jeff T Grant firm hired May 2023 with a deposit secured I then could not get on touch with Joseph again until October as I was told he was too busy. This is even after stating I was in what is considered s high conflict divorce and still Joseph failed to be attentive to my case. He failed me as a family lawyer then even with a lawyer I ended up arrested (no word) tried to get help for that arrest from Joseph Grant, who would in turn have the very firm try to charge an addition $4000 as those charges were dropped 7 days later. Mr. Grant never believed in me, never supported me, never tried to help me with actual legal advice. I put my life into Mr. Grants hands and he forgot I existed this is evacuation arrest I would call and email. Mr. Grant was let go of after continuously failing to care more about my case and concern with my son verses winning money from the opposing client. I lost alot, I asked Mr. Grant at least 5 times release me stop showing up.

Where to start, my very best friend lost alot dealing with this law firm and trusting Joseph Grant to represent my friend as she went through a high risk divorce. It took a year for thw consult, Joseph Grant was too busy for calls and leg advice leading to trouble for my friend. Joseph Grant after being fired and informed of the lack of representation then went into attack mode against my friend applying bogus charges, charging for retainer updates. Joseph Grant failed my friends as a hired attorney and only cared about money from the opposing counsel's client verse helping my friend win a very easy case with a eye witness he never reached out to, NEVER CARED ONE BIT ABOUT THE CHILD INVOLVED! MY FRIEND HAD TO DIRECT JOSEPH TO NEGOTIATE TIME SHARING! JOSEPH WAS U PROFESSIONAL, UNETHICAL AND NEGLIGENT! PROOF OF ALL, EVEN STAYING ON MY CASE A MONTH AFTER BEING ASKED AND SIGNED CONSENT TO BE REMOVED, CAUSING ME A CONTEMP OF COURT. BBB REPORT & REPORTING HIM TO THE BAR. THIS IS DISGUSTING
