As a student attorney, Kashif worked on numerous criminal and capital defense cases for indigent clients that needed court-appointed defense attorneys. Kashif’s passion for justice and helping others led him to take part in the Civil Practice Clinic at the University of Houston Law Center. He zealously gave a voice to indigent and low-income clients, assisting with a variety of civil cases including bankruptcy, collection, landlord-tenant, divorce, domestic violence, administrative appeals, adoption, will drafting, guardianships, name changes, and probate.
Prior to joining John K. Zaid & Associates, Kashif worked for Thomas J. Henry Injury Attorneys. He gained valuable legal experience and the necessary skills while working on automobile accidents, company vehicle accidents, premises liability, trucking accidents, and workplace accidents. Kashif is now dedicated and passionately eager to advocate for those clients whose lives have been scarred by severe injury.
