Elnaz Mirza

Senior Attorney

Elnaz Mirza, embarked on her journey into the realm of law with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Sociology from San Diego State University. Her thirst for legal knowledge led her to attain her Juris Doctor from Western State College of Law. While Elnaz is relatively new to the intricate domain of Workers’ Compensation law, her enthusiasm and commitment to learning define her approach.

Before delving into the complexities of Workers’ Compensation law, Elnaz garnered diverse legal experience across several domains. Her previous practice encompassed an array of legal areas, including Family Law, Immigration (with a specilization in Asylum cases), and intellectual Property Law. This diverse background endows her with a comprehensive perspective and a rich skill set, which she eagerly applies to her current focus in Workers’ Compensation.

In her pursuit of personal fulfillment and professional growth, Elnaz finds solace in staying active outside the legal realm. She channels her energy into volunteering in her hometown of San Diego and exercising. An avid devotee of family, friends, and her beloved Yorkie, Charlie, she cherishes moments spent with them, often indulging in leisurely visits to the dog beach. She lives by the ancient Zoroastrian ethos - upholding the principles of “good thoughts, good words, good deeds.” This foundational philosophy permeates her approach to both professional endeavors and personal interactions, guiding her to navigate the complexities of law with integrity and compassion.
