Founding partners Danny Tarkanian and Samira Knight of Tarkanian & Knight Law Group, LLC did not meet practicing law but their paths crossed while Knight was the political director for then, U.S. Senate candidate, Tarkanian. From there they began to build a strong business relationship. Their firm primarily focuses on family law, criminal defense, business transaction, sports and entertainment and personal injury. Tarkanian and Knight have created an environment that strives to make each client feel like part of the T & K family.

Around that same time, Tarkanian’s family moved to Nevada. Knight is a graduate of Bonanza High School and Danny of Bishop Gorman and both attended UNLV for undergrad. Both left Las Vegas to attend law school. Tarkanian attended University of San Diego, graduating Magnam Cum laude, and Knight attended Cooley Law School, graduating in two years Cum Laude. The two are also involved in the community. Knight volunteers each week to teach a course on personal growth and positive thinking at the Shade Tree. She is the founder of the Las Vegas Iranian Chamber of Commerce, as well as active pro bono case load.
