Bahar Ansari is an attorney, author, founder, and teacher who has built her career on a single idea: that the law should make sense to the people it affects.

​

She came to the United States from Iran as a teenager and got her start as a journalist — winning recognition for her writing — before earning her Juris Doctor and her LL.M.s from UCLA. Today she's the founder of the law firm 2nd.law, the host of the Lawvely podcast, and the author of Lawve Letters.

 

Featured in Forbes and named one of the "Top 6 Women in Law Changing the Legal Industry," she has spent her career making the law clear, human, and accessible — for her clients, and for everyone who's ever faced one of life's big moments without a lawyer to call.
