Haytham Faraj

Lead Trial Attorney

In the legal industry, the bait-and-switch is common. You refer a complex case to a named partner based on their reputation, only to have it handed off to a junior associate to learn on your client’s dime. Not here. When you partner with Faraj Law, your client gets Haytham Faraj. He prepares the strategy. He takes the depositions. He tries the case.
