Silmi Law is a strategy-driven law firm with two focused practices: U.S. immigration, served nationwide, and personal injury, served across Maryland. On the immigration side, we help individuals, professionals, entrepreneurs, and families achieve their goals in the United States — with particular depth in the self-petition categories that reward exceptional work, including EB-1A extraordinary ability and the EB-2 National Interest Waiver, alongside O-1, L-1, H-1B, and E-2 visas, family and marriage-based immigration, asylum and humanitarian relief, removal defense, and citizenship. Our clients come from software and hardware engineering, artificial intelligence and data science, cybersecurity, semiconductors, fintech, finance, energy, medicine, biopharma, research, and the arts — and we translate their real achievements into the precise legal arguments USCIS is looking for.

On the personal injury side, we represent people harmed by someone else’s negligence — car, truck, and motorcycle accidents, medical malpractice, slip-and-fall, workplace and construction injuries, and wrongful death — throughout Maryland, on a no-fee-unless-we-win basis. Our Maryland litigation is led by veteran trial partner David Albright.

What ties both practices together is a single conviction: every case deserves a custom strategy, not a cookie-cutter template. Founder and managing attorney Sharif Silmi personally reviews every new inquiry, and our close-knit team — many of us immigrants ourselves — stays genuinely invested from the first conversation to the final result. We serve clients in English, Arabic, and Spanish.
