True Trial Lawyers
Gjording Fouser’s greatest asset is the extensive trial experience of our team. Collectively, we have been lead counsel in more than 320 civil jury trials. Our team tries cases throughout the State of Idaho and we are familiar with judges, opposing counsel and juries throughout the State. We are often retained by clients to serve as trial counsel shortly before a trial commences because of our reputation that, if requested by our clients, we will without hesitation go to trial. Our agility and the trial experience of our attorneys and staff enable us to efficiently and effectively get up to speed.

Team-Based Litigation Approach
Gjording Fouser has a team-based litigation approach for our clients. While at most law firms this simply means placing several attorneys on a case and double or triple billing for the same hour, at Gjording Fouser the team approach means that we assemble client teams that consist of our attorneys that have the best skill set to handle our clients’ needs. This approach ensures that each client will have the best person analyzing records, performing discovery tasks, researching and retaining experts, drafting motions, planning issue-based focus groups, and taking witnesses at trial. Our client teams hold bi-weekly internal roundtable discussions, at no charge to the client, where we develop a fresh and innovative strategy for each case and we believe these meetings ensure consistent, high quality and cost-effective service is provided to each and every one of our clients.
SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
What a great community we live in! It is full of individuals and organizations that are selflessly committed to making a difference. We feel very fortunate to be able to volunteer with and support so many different organizations – whether they are trying to keep abused children out of danger and in safe homes, helping young girls gain self-confidence and great health through running, making it possible for musicians at every level to create and play incredible music, educating others about the risks of heart disease and stroke or helping grant wishes for critically ill children.
GF Social Responsibility in Action
The new school year is just around the corner and the GF team is looking forward to shopping until we drop while we buy clothes for school-aged children who are staying at the Boise Rescue Mission’s women & children’s center. We are proud to help the Boise Rescue Mission Ministries achieve their goal of making sure children are “properly equipped so they can start the school year feeling ready and proud.
Technology @ Gf
We 100% agree with the idea that the right technology improves efficiency, collaboration, and security. Which is why we invest in the best. We do love a good legal pad but we made the switch to reMarkable notetaking tablets because they integrate with our document management system and now we can truly call ourselves a paperless office; we have the ediscovery software, Everlaw; internal collaboration tool, Todoist; Grammarly that triple checks every email and document we prepare; commercial grade acoustic fencing to provide optimal privacy in our conference rooms; security tools galore – KnowBe4 that keeps us up to date on cyber security concerns and regularly tests our phishing and vishing skills, multi-factor authentication, and Keeper password manager; oh and our colorful Bose earbuds that provide the best sound quality in this “new” virtual environment.
