Zach Goncalves Bio Photo Transparent

Zach was born and raised in Toronto.

He is proud to be a plaintiff-side personal injury lawyer. He prides himself in thoroughly preparing his cases so that his clients can stand-up against large insurance companies and corporations. Following Zach’s undergrad at York University, he enrolled in law school at the University of Windsor. Zach graduated from Windsor Law in June 2016 and was called to the Ontario Bar in June 2017.

As a law student, Zach developed a particular interest in the practice of civil litigation. He was an active member of Windsor Law’s Community Legal Aid Clinic, where he worked as a Caseworker and Group Leader, providing various legal services to disadvantaged individuals in the Windsor-Essex area. Following law school, Zach articled and practiced for close to five years at a large Toronto-based personal injury firm. During that time, Zachary successfully negotiated and recovered millions of dollars in fair compensation for countess accident victims.

Zach joined Auger Hollingsworth in March of 2021 and remains committed to helping accident victims across Ontario. Outside of work, Zach enjoys sports (particularly soccer), travel, reading, and spending quality time with family and friends. Zach is proud of his Portuguese heritage and is eager to help Portuguese speakers with their accident claims.
