About Mohammad Ali
Mohammad Ali Parvand studied law at Southwestern University School of Law and earned his J.D. there. He moved from the classroom to the courthouse and built a practice that places him in both state and federal arenas. His legal education provided a foundation in courtroom procedure and legal research that he has drawn on throughout his career.
He is admitted to practice in California and before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. Those admissions allow him to represent clients in a broad range of matters that reach beyond a single courthouse. Over the years he has appeared before trial judges and appellate panels, handling filings, oral arguments and procedural advocacy in multiple forums.
Parvand operates the Law Office of Ali Parvand. The office serves as the base for his litigation and appellate activities. He handles client intake, drafts briefs and manages case strategy from initial filing through resolution. Working from a smaller office allows him to control case preparation and maintain direct contact with clients.
Colleagues describe his approach as methodical. He prepares written submissions carefully and follows procedural deadlines closely. He values clarity in pleadings and in the courtroom. That approach guides his interactions with opposing counsel and with judges. He balances written advocacy with oral presentation depending on what a case requires.
Outside of court filings and hearings, he focuses on procedural matters that can determine how a case progresses. That includes appeals, motions practice and case management at each stage. He pays attention to the record and to the standards that appellate panels apply when reviewing lower-court decisions. Those considerations shape how he frames arguments and preserves issues for appeal.
Clients who work with him can expect a direct line to the person handling their matter. He maintains oversight of each file from start to finish. In 2026 he continues to practice through the Law Office of Ali Parvand and represents clients in proceedings before California state courts and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.
