Elmira Yousufi has dedicated her career to making a difference for those who may be mistreated by the criminal justice system. Born in Afghanistan, Elmira and her family emigrated to Pakistan and Iran before eventually coming to the United States when she was four years old. Growing up in a post-9/11 America, Elmira experienced discrimination and prejudice for being an Afghan Muslim. These experiences taught Elmira an invaluable lesson on race and ethnicity and encouraged her to study hard and work to make a difference in her community. Having witnessed her family overcome so much to attain a pathway to United States citizenship, Elmira has dedicated her career to making a difference in the lives of the more vulnerable individuals in our community, those facing criminal charges and the potential loss of their freedom and future.
Elmira graduated cum laude from the University of California, Irvine, and was invited into the prestigious Phi Beta Kappa Honor Society. She graduated from the University of San Diego School of Law with over 250 hours of Pro Bono hours and was selected as one of ten graduating students for membership into the Order of Barristers.
Prior to joining our firm in early 2022, Elmira spent time working at the Public Defender Services for the District of Columbia and completed a clerkship at the San Diego District Attorney’s Office. Elmira’s time at the District Attorney’s Office provided her with hands-on experience evaluating, prosecuting, and negotiating criminal cases. Elmira’s diverse background and life experiences, both inside and outside the courtroom, make her a valuable member of the defense bar and a strong advocate for our clients.

Excellent lawyer
She pointed me towards helpful resources at the beginning of my case, was realistic with possible outcomes and at the end of the process delivered results I was happy with. If anyone I knew needed a lawyer she would be the first person I recommend.

Elmira was recommended to me by a family friend, and from our first phone call I could see why she was so highly recommended.

Excellent service
I had the privilege of working with Elmira and she was the consummate professional. She worked diligently and handled my case effectively and expeditiously. She made a very awkward situation tolerable and I am currently much better off thanks to her.
"Elmira is an incredibly skilled and dependable attorney who consistently exceeds expectations. She brings a high level of care and precision to her work and is someone you can always count on to follow through. What sets her apart is her willingness to put in the extra effort to get things right and support those she works with. I highly recommend her."
"Elmira is undoubtedly one of the most insightful, motivated, critically thinking attorney I've ever had the pleasure to work with. As someone who has been practicing for 10 years, it is so refreshing to see someone with the enthusiasm, skill, and motivation that Elmira has. She has already gotten amazing results for her clients, and she has done so with the utmost professionalism, zeal, and unmatched tenacity. Elmira is incredible at issue spotting, legal research, and advocacy in the courtroom. Anyone represented by her is in very good and capable hands."
"Elmira is genuinely dedicated to helping her clients. Not only does she carefully analyze the law and the facts, but she incorporates, in her advocacy, a great balance of assertiveness and likeability- which make her very effective."
"Elmira has made a name for herself within the San Diego criminal defense community with as many dismissals and defense motions (995s, 1538s, etc.) granted in 2022-2023 than many criminal defense attorney obtain for their clients in their entire careers. I look forward to watching her continue to grow as one of San Diego's most impressive attorneys."
"Elmira is an asset to any criminal case. She has a natural rapport with clients and is well respected by her peers. I highly recommend her."
