About Armin J.
Armin J. Jezari built a legal education that blends business, public administration and specialized tax training. He earned a B.A. in Business Administration and Social Science from the University of Texas at Dallas in 1999. He returned to graduate study a decade later, completing an M.P.A. at Texas State University in 2010. He received his J.D. from Texas Southern University Thurgood Marshall School of Law in 2012 and followed that with an LL.M. in Tax Law from the University of Houston Law Center in 2014.
His work history maps a steady progression from public service and communications into law. Early roles included serving as a realtor in 1997 and working as an Army broadcast journalist in the United States Army Reserve in 2000. He spent time in the public sector as a policy analyst and committee clerk for the House of Representatives in 2003 and later as a community development coordinator for the Baha'i International Community in 2007. Those posts gave way to legal work: an assistant public defender position in 2011, a summer bankruptcy associate role in 2012, and two 2013 positions that placed him in both public interest and private practice settings.
In 2013 Jezari worked as a tax lawyer at Texas RioGrande Legal Aid and as an associate at the Law Offices of Michael R. Nevarez. The next year he launched his own firm, Jezari Law, and has practiced under that name since 2014. His admissions include the United States Tax Court, the State of Texas, the Fifth Circuit and the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas.
His training and early case work show an emphasis on tax matters alongside litigation in state and federal forums. The LL.M. in Tax Law informs his approach to disputes that touch federal tax statutes and administrative procedures. But his background also includes criminal defense experience and bankruptcy work, reflecting a practice that crosses several areas where federal and state rules interact.
Colleagues describe him as methodical in his case preparation and practical in courtroom settings. He has combined legal drafting and procedural work with client-facing roles dating back to his time as a realtor and a broadcast journalist. That mix of skills has influenced how he manages both litigation and advisory matters at Jezari Law.
He continues to operate Jezari Law and appears in state and federal courts, including the United States Tax Court. His current practice concentrates on tax controversy and related litigation matters in Texas and federal venues.
