Proactive. Strategic. Respected. For over 16 years, attorney Sheida Shoalehvar has delivered high-level criminal defense across California with one goal: protecting her clients’ freedom, reputation, and future. Her approach is built on early, decisive action, often resolving cases before charges are filed.
Ms. Shoalehvar gained valuable legal insight working within the Los Angeles District Attorney’s Office, where she learned how prosecutors evaluate and build criminal cases. This experience gives her a unique edge, spotting weaknesses early, building strong defenses fast, and using key relationships with law enforcement and prosecutors to her clients’ advantage.
She has successfully defended hundreds of individuals facing charges such as DUI, narcotics offenses, domestic violence, theft, and serious felonies. Every case is handled personally, never passed to case managers or paralegals. With an in-house private investigator and access to expert consultants, her team can act immediately when your freedom is at stake.
Ms. Shoalehvar earned her JD from the Southern California Institute of Law. She is admitted to practice in all California State Courts, the U.S. District Court (Central District of California), and the U.S. Court of Appeals. She is an active member of the California State Bar, NACDL, CACJ, CCBA, and other respected legal associations.
Her office offers multilingual support, including Spanish and other languages, ensuring clients receive clear, informed guidance and dedicated defense.
