Omid H. Nasab is a “top-tier litigator and trial lawyer” who has achieved outstanding results for his clients on a broad variety of complex litigation, including breach of contract, mass torts and business torts, bankruptcy and securities matters. Described as “stunningly sharp, strategic [and] effective,” clients note that they “would never want to make a significant strategic call without knowing [his] opinion.” (Chambers USA)
Mr. Nasab has earned repeated recognition by Chambers USA and The Legal 500 US for his work in general commercial litigation. He has been named a “Litigation Star” by Benchmark Litigation and consistently selected for inclusion in Lawdragon’s list of “500 Leading Global Litigators.” Mr. Nasab has previously been recognized as a Law360 “Rising Star” for Bankruptcy.

After graduating, he served as a law clerk to Hon. Bruce W. Kauffman of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania and to Hon. Deborah L. Cook of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit.
