Farah is a dedicated plaintiff attorney whose practice is grounded in compassion, integrity, and relentless advocacy. She believes that effective representation begins with genuine care — and those who know her describe her as reliable, empathetic, and an exceptional listener. These qualities shape every client interaction and every case she handles.

As an immigrant who came to the United States in 2001, Farah understands resilience, perseverance, and the importance of opportunity. Her personal journey informs her approach to the law: she views the justice system not simply as a profession, but as a platform to protect individuals who may otherwise feel unheard or overpowered. She is fluent in Arabic and understands Aramaic, allowing her to effectively serve clients from diverse backgrounds and ensure they feel seen, understood, and empowered.

In law school Farah distinguished herself as both a leader and an advocate. She was actively involved in Moot Court, served as President of the Mock Trial Board, and led the Chaldean American Law Students Association. These experiences sharpened her litigation skills and reinforced her commitment to disciplined, strategic advocacy. She continues to give back to her alma mater by mentoring and returning as a judge for moot court competitions.

Farah is a member of the Negligence Law Section, remaining engaged with ongoing developments in plaintiff advocacy and trial practice to better serve her clients.
Her commitment to service extends beyond the courtroom. She volunteers annually with the Ronald McDonald House of Detroit, supporting the Belle Isle race that raises critical funds for families facing medical hardship.

At the heart of her life is family. Outside of her legal practice, she dedicates her time to her husband, parents, sisters, and nephews. Family is her foundation — and it fuels her dedication to protecting the rights and futures of the families she represents.
With every case, Farah combines preparation, skill, and compassion to advocate for those who have been wronged. She stands firmly beside her clients, ensuring their voices are heard and their rights are protected.
