Let’s Be Honest
The hiring process is a leap of faith. No matter what this web page says about how great we are, you shouldn’t take our word for it – especially in the legal industry. We hope to earn your trust by educating you about who we are and what we value.
Hybrid Remote Flexibility

The Pod System
Hemmat Law generally practices in litigation pods of 1:1 – one paralegal for every attorney. Gone are the days of sharing a single overworked assistant with your fellows. You and your paralegal are encouraged to cultivate a collaborative (rather than managerial) dynamic.rnrnIf you already have a paralegal you love working with, we are always happy to hire them simultaneously.

Get credit for every communication you send or receive – instantly, and hands-free. Meet your targets just by staying on top of your inbox.

Hemmat Law Gives Back:
Stories from the streets
We are Hemmat Law. We make our living defending the lives, freedoms, and futures of many of our community’s most vulnerable citizens. But despite that care, we cannot help everyone. Some crises are of natures we cannot stop, prevent, or reverse. So, we find other ways to give back and support the people of the PNW.
The Podcast
Gossip Without Prejudice investigates the law: how it shapes, influences, and often fails our society. We also discuss existing and emerging current events, teach you how to be a better member of the legal community, and arm you with the tools you need to keep your head on straight. We promise plenty of insight, humor, and maybe a guest or two.
Family Law
At Hemmat Law, we believe that knowing how to access legal help to find justice should not be hard. We also believe that knowledge is power, and to help arm the public with the information they need, Hemmat Law (and our sister company Hemmat Interactive Inc) collaborated to undertake the largest-ever survey of Family Law Firms in the United States.
