November 11, 2025

Goranson Bain Ausley (GBA), a prominent Texas family law firm, has been named the #2 Top Workplace in the “Top Small Companies” category by The Dallas Morning News for 2025. This marks the firm’s seventh appearance on the prestigious list, recognizing organizations that demonstrate exceptional culture, employee engagement, and leadership.

Goranson Bain Ausley was also honored with the publication’s special award for Best Formal Training, highlighting the firm’s commitment to professional development and mentorship at every level.


“Every new associate is assigned a mentor who not only supports them in their daily work but helps them define and achieve their long-term goals. We invest deeply in the associates who join our firm—offering structured guidance, training, and growth opportunities—because we believe in supporting young lawyers to become the best possible family lawyers and future leaders in our profession.”

Elizabeth Ferris | Chief Marketing Officer, Goranson Bain Ausley


The firm’s mentoring program connects attorneys across generations, pairing new associates with seasoned practitioners who share insights from years, sometimes decades of family law experience. These relationships are supported by monthly mentor meetings, best-in-class training checklists, and a collaborative environment designed to promote growth, excellence, and client service.

Beyond training, Goranson Bain Ausley’s culture is grounded in trust, collegiality, integrity, and hard work. The firm encourages participation in charitable initiatives, including recent support for the Children’s Advocacy Center of Collin County, and fosters connection through team building and firmwide celebrations such as its annual picnic and community events.

“Family law can be challenging work,” Ferris added. “That’s why it’s so important to create a culture where people know they’re supported, valued, and surrounded by colleagues who have their back. That sense of trust and belonging allows our team to show up as their best selves—for one another and for our clients.”

With offices across Texas, Goranson Bain Ausley continues to set the standard for excellence in family law by combining skill, compassion, and collaboration in every aspect of its practice.
