Meet one of Clarkson’s partners, Shireen!
As Partner and Shareholder at Clarkson Law Firm, P.C., Shireen leads the firm’s class action litigation team. With over 14 years of experience as a civil litigator in both California state and federal courts, she is a fierce and relentless advocate of consumer rights. Shireen has earned substantial recognition as lead and co-lead counsel in various certified class action cases and other multi-party matters. These have resulted in millions of dollars for consumers seeking redress for financial harm caused by corporate wrongdoers. In addition, Shireen holds an impressive record of representing public entities, private companies, and individuals in general business litigation.
Shireen’s vision is to create a team of lawyers and other dedicated advocates who would promote and protect the interests of the people. Her expertise and strong will were instrumental in helping elevate Clarkson to take charge in a world filled with greed, profits-over-people attitudes, and dishonest practices. As a staunch advocate of consumer rights, Shireen focuses her practice on issues most important to her, such as food mislabeling, cosmetics misbranding, and pharmaceutical litigation.
Shireen believes the class action device is a critical tool to regulate the consumer products industry and preserve the competitive balance. The ability to level the playing field between big business and individuals motivates her daily to do what she does. However, she is also a proud mother of her two year-old daughter, Adamaris. Together, they love visiting the zoo, playing at the beach, and exploring other outdoor activities. |
