Origin

From EEOC Trial Attorney to Solo Practice

Meenoo Chahbazi is a graduate of the University of California, Berkeley and Harvard Law School, and began her employment-law career as a Trial Attorney for the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, litigating on the Commission’s behalf to obtain relief for victims of workplace discrimination, per her Justia attorney profile. She subsequently worked as an associate at Sanford, Wittels & Heisler, a firm handling class-action, employment-discrimination, wage-and-hour, and whistleblower litigation, and served as a judicial law clerk for both the U.S. Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims and the Alaska Supreme Court before practicing as Of Counsel and Partner at Robaina & Kresin PLLC — the same core partnership behind Yen Pilch Robaina & Kresin, another firm in this category — ahead of founding her own practice.

Practice

A Litigator’s Background Applied to Individual Employees

Chahbazi represents employees in sexual and racial harassment, disability discrimination, denial of reasonable accommodations, unlawful retaliation, and wage-and-benefits denial matters, and is currently focusing part of her practice on class-action litigation specifically, per her own biography. Her combination of federal agency litigation experience (at the EEOC), private class-action firm experience, and appellate clerkships is a denser litigation background than several solo practitioners in this category can claim.

Track Record

No Published Case-Result List

Awesome Attorneys did not identify a published, itemized settlement or verdict list for this firm. As with other employment practices in this category, confidential settlements are common in this area of law, which likely explains the absence of a public results page. Awesome Attorneys is not estimating or inferring case outcomes here.

Client Voice

Detailed, Specific, and Positive

Awesome Attorneys reviewed testimonials published on FindLaw. One client described Chahbazi’s “unwavering support and diligent study” of the case and specifically praised her as “compassionate and caring,” “exceedingly intelligent,” and “hardworking,” writing that a five-star rating “would be an understatement.” Another client, describing more than fifteen years of experience working with multiple attorneys across various complaints, wrote that Chahbazi was “the best of the five” attorneys she had worked with and was “in an entirely different league.” Awesome Attorneys did not identify negative reviews for this firm as of the research date.

Community

Not Independently Documented

Awesome Attorneys did not identify specific, publicly documented community involvement, sponsorships, or pro bono programs for this firm as of the research date.

Recognition

A Federal Litigation Pedigree, Without Peer-Review Ratings Identified

Chahbazi’s credentials — a Harvard Law degree, EEOC trial-attorney experience, appellate clerkships, and multi-state bar admission — are independently verifiable through her Justia attorney profile and represent a genuinely strong litigation background. Awesome Attorneys did not identify a Super Lawyers, Best Lawyers, or Martindale-Hubbell AV Preeminent rating for this attorney as of the research date; her strongest documented credentials are institutional (EEOC, federal clerkships) rather than commercial peer-review ratings.

Arizona Legal Backdrop

Where Federal Agency Experience Matters Most

Many of the claims Chahbazi handles — Title VII harassment and discrimination, whistleblower retaliation — are filed first with the EEOC or Arizona’s Civil Rights Division before a lawsuit can proceed, a procedural requirement known as exhausting administrative remedies. An attorney with direct EEOC trial experience, as Chahbazi has, per her own biography, has direct familiarity with how that agency evaluates and processes charges from the inside — a genuine, specific advantage for claims that must pass through the EEOC first. This is general information, not legal advice.

Awesome Attorneys Assessment

An Unusually Deep Litigation Background for a Solo Practice

Chahbazi Law stands out in this category less for firm size and more for the individual depth of its founder’s background: EEOC trial-attorney experience, a national class-action firm pedigree, two appellate clerkships, and specific, detailed, strongly positive client testimonials. The honest gap, consistent with several other firms in this category, is the absence of independently identified peer-review recognition and published case results — readers should weigh Chahbazi’s institutional credentials, which are independently verifiable, against that documentation gap. For employees with EEOC-track discrimination, harassment, or whistleblower claims specifically, this firm’s background is directly relevant and worth an initial consultation.
