The path to becoming a personal injury attorney is often paved with personal experience, and Ramez Shamieh’s case is no exception. After his brother was run over by a hit-and-run driver in 2010 and required legal help, Ramez not only obtained justice for his brother, but he also set an intention to treat every single client as if they were his brother.
His firm, Shamieh Law, stands out in the field of personal injury law. It is not just about winning cases, but also about winning with awareness. This unique philosophy, which advocates for compassion alongside advocacy, has shaped Ramez Shamieh into the attorney he is today.
From Sports Aspirations to Litigating in the Courtroom
Shamieh’s early aspirations revolved around soccer. While he earned a scholarship to Southern Methodist University and helped his team set NCAA records during college, the lack of an actual soccer presence in the United States eventually caused him to pursue other ambitions, including law. He went on to study at Tulane University and graduated in 2007.
In 2016, Shamieh opened his firm, Shamieh Law, where he now guides people with confidence and compassion while advocating for clients in Texas, Louisiana, and Arkansas.
“There was never a question I’d own a business and succeed,” Shamieh shares. “I walked to the far window, far away from my first office lease, said a prayer, and told myself, ‘In five years, this will be my office.’ It happened in 18 months.”
Prioritizing Compassion in the Courtroom
At Shamieh Law, they understand that going through the legal process can be stressful, time-consuming, and sometimes even disheartening. This is why they advocate for Winning with Awareness, the firm’s philosophy on conducting its business.
“[Winning with Awareness] means being passionate about getting the best results for our clients but doing it in a way that treats everybody with respect, dignity, and compassion,” Ramez Shamieh says. “This includes treating our own employees, our clients, opposing attorneys, and people in the community the same way we want to be treated while obtaining unbelievable results for our clients.”
This personal attention to detail has helped lead Shamieh Law through some of the most challenging cases they have ever represented, resulting in significant victories for their clients. Life outside the courtroom has also allowed Shamieh to utilize his experiences to help better the lives of his clients. His passions for DJing, Burning Man festivals, breathwork, and motivating young adults have allowed Shamieh to ignite his joy and inspiration to serve.
The Next Phase of Shamieh Law
Ramez Shamieh has recently partnered with attorney Jordan Weinberg to launch immigration services for those seeking to transition into life in the United States. This strategic move will not only grow the Shamieh Law brand but also offer new ways to serve, expanding the firm’s reach and ability to help more people.
While Ramez Shamieh didn’t initially intend to become a lawyer, his brother’s accident and the following circumstances have proven that not all paths are set in stone. Becoming a personal injury attorney is no exception.
