Omid Shamim

Born here. Raised here. Fighting for injured Nevadans because this community is home. Omid (pronounced "O-mead," like Lake Mead with an O) was born and raised in Las Vegas, Nevada. He's not someone who moved here to capitalize on a growing legal market — Las Vegas is home, and that shapes everything about how he practices. After earning his undergraduate degrees at the University of Nevada, Reno, Omid returned to Las Vegas and spent nearly nine years in the service industry — the hotels, restaurants, and hospitality businesses that make this city run. He also spent time teaching English in South Korea. Those years working alongside the people who power Las Vegas gave him a perspective most lawyers simply don't have. He knows what it's like to work hard, get hurt on the job, and wonder whether anyone is actually on your side. Insurance companies have armies of lawyers. Omid makes sure injured people have someone equally committed fighting for them.
