The Law Office of Omar R. Jishi represents clients in litigation, constitutional disputes, and other contested matters where rights, reputation, livelihood, or liberty are at stake.

Intellectual Property: Patent and Entertainment Litigation

The Office handles intellectual property disputes involving both technical subject matter and creative work. This includes patent litigation, infringement and licensing disputes, and entertainment-related matters involving music, film, digital media, and online content.

Civil Liberties

The Constitution protects some of the most basic things a person can do: speak freely, practice religion, dissent, organize, protest, and resist unlawful government action. These disputes can arise in universities, workplaces, public spaces, and administrative settings, often against institutions with far greater resources. The Law Office represents clients in these matters with the goal of vindicating their rights and securing concrete relief when those rights are burdened, denied, or punished.

Domestic Violence Restraining Orders and Family Law

Domestic violence restraining order proceedings and related family law disputes can affect nearly every part of a person’s life, often on an accelerated timeline. Allegations and court orders may bear directly on safety, custody and visitation, access to the home, employment, firearm rights, and reputation. The Office handles these matters from initial filing through contested hearing and trial, with close attention to the practical consequences of each step. The aim is to protect the client’s position, present the case clearly and credibly, and keep sight of the larger family and legal context.

Criminal Defense

A criminal case can place a person’s liberty, record, employment, and future at risk. The firm represents clients facing criminal allegations, including situations in which expressive activity intersects with criminal enforcement. Representation may begin before filing, continue through negotiation and motion practice, and, where necessary, extend through litigation in court.

Government Challenges and Appeals

Government action is not always lawful, and it is not always final. The Office welcomes matters involving challenges to administrative and regulatory decisions, constitutional challenges to government actions and laws, and appellate proceedings. These matters may involve agency enforcement, disciplinary proceedings, licensing decisions, regulatory action, writ proceedings, and appeals under federal or California law.

Other Representative Matters

The firm also handles selected matters in civil litigation, employment disputes, Proposition 65, and related areas.
