A founding partner in Wahid Vizcaino LLP, Khurrum has fought tirelessly to protect civil liberties from unwarranted government encroachment and to educate the public about the importance of safeguarding our constitutional protections, especially in times that try our nation's conscience. Khurrum has been a leader in educating the public about the details of the domestic and foreign policy that infringes on the rights of the individual. He has commented on policies that have damaged America's ability to combat terrorism under the guise of national security. He has appeared as a guest commentator on CNN, MSNBC, Fox News, National Public Radio, and various other television and radio shows across the nation. Khurrum has defended individuals charged with allegedly committing or conspiring to commit acts of terrorism, including three medical students falsely accused of terrorism in Florida on the anniversary of the tragic events of 9/11 and many individuals charged with conspiring to commit acts of domestic terrorism. In all of these cases, Khurrum has sought to vindicate the constitutional rights of his clients. Khurrum has testified on civil rights issues several times before various government organizations, including twice before the United States Commission on Civil Rights. He frequently is invited to speak at conferences, community meetings, and professional forums. He has handled hundreds of violent felony, misdemeanor, and juvenile cases, including murder, money laundering, armed robbery, sex crimes, drug trafficking, and DUI. Khurrum is admitted to practice law in Florida, New York, and various Federal Courts. He is also a member of professional organizations such as the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, the Florida Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, the Florida Muslim Bar Association and the National Association of Muslim Lawyers.
