About

Navid Farzan, Esq.

Utah-licensed attorney since 2019. Trial lawyer, bilingual advocate, and former managing attorney. Native Persian speaker.

Background

Navid Farzan was admitted to the Utah State Bar in May 2019, after earning his Juris Doctor from the J. Reuben Clark Law School at Brigham Young University in 2018 and his Bachelor of Arts in Political Science from the University of California, Davis in 2014.

Before he was a lawyer, Navid was a political prisoner in Iran. That experience gave him an early and unforgettable understanding of what is at stake when ordinary people walk into a courtroom — and a deep, durable commitment to representing them well.

He has since spent his legal career in the courts of Utah: representing hundreds of clients in family law and criminal defense matters, and serving most recently as managing attorney at a Utah firm before founding Farzan Law, PLLC.
