Shadi Shirazi - Phoenix, AZ

Shadi was born and raised in Toronto, Canada. She earned her Bachelor of Social Work with a minor in Psychology before pursuing her Bachelor of Laws from the University of Birmingham in England. She later moved to the United States to continue her legal education and was drawn to Arizona’s sunny skies, which she has come to call home. Shadi earned her Master of Laws and her Juris Doctor from the University of Arizona, James E. Rogers College of Law, and passed the Arizona Bar Exam while completing her final semester of law school.

Family has always been an important part of Shadi’s life, and she developed an early interest in supporting families and children. Her time in law school further solidified that passion. She focused her coursework on family law whenever possible, and graduated with a Family and Juvenile Law Certificate. Shadi also gained hands-on legal experience in both judicial and private practice settings. She clerked for the Honorable Randi L. Burnett at the Pima County Superior Court before transitioning into private practice as a family law clerk. In tandem, Shadi participated in the Child and Family Law Clinic, where she served as a Certified Limited Practice Student representing minor children in dependency proceedings.

Shadi’s practice is focused on high-conflict family law matters, including contested divorce cases. She is dedicated to providing compassionate and effective legal representation to her clients during some of the most difficult times of their lives.

In her free time, Shadi enjoys spending time with her family and friends, cooking, trying new restaurants, and traveling.
