Sami Nouri

I am the founder of Nouri Law, a California law firm based in El Cajon. My practice focuses on personal injury, employment, civil rights, and select civil litigation matters.

I represent individuals, workers, and families facing serious legal problems, including injury claims, wrongful death cases, wage and hour disputes, workplace discrimination and retaliation, police misconduct, excessive force, and unlawful detention.

Before entering private practice, I served as both a Deputy District Attorney and a Deputy Public Defender, gaining substantial courtroom and litigation experience from both sides of the criminal justice system. That experience continues to shape how I approach civil cases today: prepare thoroughly, assess cases from multiple perspectives, communicate clearly, and be ready to litigate when necessary.

My goal is to give clients direct attorney involvement, practical guidance, and strong advocacy throughout the legal process. I serve clients throughout San Diego County, Imperial County, and across California.
