Attorney Omer Gurion completed his undergraduate degree at Arizona State University, graduating magna cum laude in 2007. He was subsequently admitted to the Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law at Arizona State University in 2008 and graduated early in December of 2010 with his Juris Doctor. In 2011, Mr. Gurion was admitted to practice law before all of the state courts of Arizona, and before the U.S. District Court for the District Court of Arizona in 2017.
Following law school, Mr. Gurion began practicing criminal defense, beginning in a small, rural jurisdiction in western Arizona. After a year of practicing there, Mr. Gurion moved with his family to Maricopa County. Mr. Gurion has handled nearly every sort of case that a person can be charged with in Arizona, from misdemeanor DUIs and domestic violence cases, to drug sales, molestation, and murder, along with everything in between.
In 2019, Mr. Gurion was certified as a criminal law specialist by the State Bar of Arizona Board of Legal Specialization. That certification, as the State Bar of Arizona describes, “is a mark of excellence and a distinguished accomplishment. Board-Certified Specialists are lawyers who have substantial experience, the respect of their peers, and demonstrated special knowledge, skills and proficiency in their area of law.”
Mr. Gurion knows that being charged with a criminal offense is among the most stressful of situations a person can find themselves in and has broad-ranging effects on individuals’ lives. Mr. Gurion is dedicated to ensuring that every stone is turned in finding defenses for his clients, and in ensuring that their constitutional rights are respected at every point along the way.
Mr. Gurion is dedicated to advocating strongly for his clients. When you meet with the Gurion Legal team, they will conduct an evaluation of your case and begin formulating a defense that will work for you. They will then explain the best course forward and present you with options on how to proceed. Always, Mr. Gurion will offer an honest and fair assessment of your case and will communicate regularly so that you will know what is going on in their case.
When Mr. Gurion is not trying cases or representing his clients he enjoys spending time with his two sons, five dogs, and being outside as much as possible.

Mr. Gurion has a magical quality in the courtroom. His outstanding number of "not guilty" verdicts are due to his innate ability to read a jury and present a case. What Mr. Gurion has, his amazingly spot-on instincts, cannot be taught. He is gifted and brilliant in the courtroom. I fully endorse him.

Omer is one of the most intelligent attorneys I have ever met. He knows the law, the components that make up the law and how to attack the law. Omer has a tremendous amount of experience in handling high end felonies and misdemeanor DUI's. It is rare to find an attorney who fights for his clients as aggressive and tenacious as Omer. I highly recommend Omer to anyone who needs a defense attorney. His successful results speak for itself.
