Often referred to as a shining goddess by the attorneys at the firm. Her role is two fold, first, she is the firm’s paralegal and day-to-day point of contact, guiding clients and their families through every stage of the criminal process. Second, she ensures that the attorneys at the firm have everything they need to do the best work for our clients.
Quick Facts:
Courtney Poss is the paralegal at Ghanouni Teen & Young Adult Defense Firm. She supports all of the firm’s attorneys and is based in the firm’s Woodstock, Georgia office. She has been with the firm for five years and works closely with clients and their families throughout the criminal defense process. Day to day, she prepares legal documents, manages case files and deadlines, coordinates with courts and attorneys, communicates with clients, and keeps each case organized and moving forward while making sure clients stay informed every step of the way.
When I was younger, I saw several close family members and friends go through the criminal justice system. Watching what they experienced gave me a different perspective than most people. I saw how overwhelming the process could be, not just for the person facing charges, but for their entire family. Those experiences are what first drew me to criminal defense.
Working at a firm that focuses on teens and young adults is especially meaningful to me because I have a daughter who has faced behavioral challenges. That experience has taught me that every situation has more to the story than what appears on the surface. It has also shown me how important it is for young people to have adults who will listen, guide them, and believe in their ability to grow.
The part of my work I am most proud of is the compassion and thoroughness we bring to every case. I want every client and every family to know they have someone who will answer their questions, keep them informed, and treat them with respect during one of the most difficult times in their lives.
One belief that guides me every day is that everyone deserves a chance. People can learn from their mistakes, change, and move forward with their lives. My goal is to help clients feel supported throughout the legal process and to make sure they know they are more than the charges they are facing.
The team counts on me to help keep cases moving and to be a consistent point of contact for clients and their families. I communicate with clients regularly, answer questions, provide updates, and help explain what is happening throughout the criminal justice process. I understand that when someone contacts our office, they may be scared, confused, or overwhelmed, especially when a loved one is facing criminal charges. I take the time to listen and make sure families feel heard and informed.
One of the most meaningful parts of my role is being able to provide comfort and reassurance to families during difficult situations. Sometimes the most important thing I can do is take the time to answer a question, explain the next step, or simply let someone know that they are not alone in the process. I know that clear communication can make an overwhelming situation feel a little more manageable.
I work at a steady pace and keep cases organized by staying aware of deadlines, upcoming court dates, necessary documents, and communication that needs to be followed up on. I also work closely with the attorneys to make sure they have the information and support they need to prepare for each case. My goal is to keep the process moving behind the scenes while making sure clients and families receive the communication and reassurance they need along the way.
