About Kamran
Kamran Behnam studied engineering before turning to law. He earned a Bachelor of Science in civil engineering in December 1990 from the University of La Verne and later returned to the same campus to complete a Juris Doctor, awarded in 1997. The sequence of degrees frames a career that moves between technical detail and legal analysis.
His early training in civil engineering gave him a technical lens he carried into legal studies. At law school he encountered the procedural and analytical disciplines that distinguish legal work from engineering design. Those twin strands — technical precision and legal reasoning — have shaped how he approaches problems and evaluates evidence.
Behnam’s professional life is rooted in practice as a lawyer. Public records list him working in a legal capacity. Over the years he has handled matters that demanded an understanding beyond law alone. Cases and files that touch on construction issues, project plans, specifications, and technical reports tend to require closer scrutiny. His background allows him to read technical documents and question assumptions in a way that nontechnical lawyers sometimes cannot.
He has also advised on contract language where engineering details matter. Bridging the gap between specification and performance is often a matter of translating technical terms into legal obligations. That translation work appears regularly in his day-to-day practice. It involves drafting, negotiating, and analyzing documents where the consequences of a few words can be substantial.
Clients and colleagues have observed that his training leads to methodical fact-finding. He looks for the underlying data that supports technical claims and then situates those findings within applicable law. The approach reduces surprises during litigation or negotiation. It also makes expert reports and testimony easier to evaluate.
Today he continues to work as a lawyer. His practice emphasizes matters that sit at the intersection of legal issues and technical or engineering concerns, drawing on both degrees earned at the University of La Verne.
