About Shamim
Biography
I run and operate The Law Practice of Shamim Ebrahimi ("LPSE"), my Houston-based Criminal Defense Firm. Fundamentally, my practice is dedicated to helping make better the lives of individuals facing criminal charges. I use my knowledge and skills to fight to ensure that neither the police nor the prosecution deprive individuals of their legal rights.
My life-goal has been to help people redeem themselves. Looking back on my life, I have been blessed with the opportunity to learn from my mistakes and the mistakes of others. I have also been blessed with meeting some exceptionally great people who have influenced me for the better. However, relatively speaking, not everyone is as fortunate as his or her neighbor, but this does not mean we should turn our backs. Rather, it is my humble opinion that we should do our part help our neighbors. Whether a neighbor is fortunate or less fortunate does not change the fact that that person is nonetheless our neighbor.

Replied last August 06, 2014Despite the circumstances, it was nonetheless a pleasure getting to know you. Just like Mike Tyson needed Constantine "Cus" D'Amato to become a champion, I needed you. Without you, I'm just a guy with a piece of paper arguably worth about $150k. With you, well...I'm a winner. A tip of the hat to you, C.
