Salim Punjani
Salim defends clients accused of state and federal offenses and represents debtors navigating Chapter 7, 11, and 13 proceedings. He approaches every matter with the same question: what outcome actually protects this person's life going forward?
“
What outcome actually protects this person's life going forward? That's the only question that decides a plea, a trial, or a filing.
Professional Principles
- 01Early motions win cases — suppress first, argue second.
- 02A plea is a sentence plus a record; negotiate both.
- 03Immigration-aware defense for every non-citizen client.
- 04Bankruptcy is a tool, not a verdict — model both chapters before filing.
Personal Principles
- 01Honesty with the client, always — the hard conversation is the caring one.
- 02Work the problem, not the panic.
- 03Outcomes over headlines.
- 04The client's life after the case is the case.
