Maryam’s practice focuses on commercial litigation.
Before attending law school, Maryam taught middle school for three years in the Houston Independent School District. Her ability to empathize, listen, and serve were transferred into her work throughout law school while serving on the Houston Law Review. The same traits translated effortlessly into her role as a law clerk at both the Texas Supreme Court and the Southern District of Texas. All these experiences have taught her that each client has unique needs, and a true advocate understands the nuances of every situation.First Name Maryam Last Name GhaffarTitle AssociateOffice HoustonDirect Dial 713.951.6208Fax 713.951.3720Email mghaffar@beckredden.comEducation a:1:{i:0;s:3:”236″;}Education Text J.D., University of Houston Law Center, summa cum laude, 2020
