Wazhma Mojaddidi MOJADDIDI LAW CORPORATION PRACTICE AREA : Family Law
I WANTED TO BECOME A LAWYER : Since I was 10 years old because my father told me it was the right career path for a child who relentlessly argued like I did. I CHOSE MY AREA OF PRACTICE : Because I am able to empathetically advocate for people during a difficult time in their lives regarding issues that affect their family structure, their finances and their personal safety. MY ADVICE TO LAWYERS IN HIGH-PROFILE CASES SUCH AS JOHNNY DEPP AND AMBER HEARD : Is to ignore the cameras and do your job. THE BIGGEST MISCONCEPTION LAWYERS FACE : Is that we are in it only for the money. I am passionate about my work and chose this career because I care about people and their rights. THE THING I’M MOST PROUD OF PROFESSIONALLY IS : The reputation I have built in my legal community as a strong advocate. I RELIEVE STRESS BY: Staying busy. The less I have on my plate, the more time I have to stress. IF I HIT THE LOTTERY TOMORROW : I would keep working as much as I do now. This busy bee is not motivated by money.
