Delina Yasmeh
JD · LL.M. Taxation · California Attorney
Delina Yasmeh is the founder and principal attorney of Delina Yasmeh Law, a boutique legal practice delivering high-level legal and tax counsel to founders, operators, and entrepreneurs across industries and jurisdictions.
She holds a Juris Doctor (JD), a Master of Laws in Taxation (LL.M.), the most advanced academic credential in U.S. tax law, and a degree in accounting. This multidisciplinary background allows her to advise with precision across legal, tax, and financial dimensions simultaneously.
Most attorneys know law. Most accountants know tax. Delina knows both, and understands how they intersect in ways that change the outcome for clients who are building real businesses.
“Lawyers don't know tax. Accountants don't know law. My clients shouldn't have to pay for that gap.”

Delina Yasmeh Law
She founded Delina Yasmeh Law to offer a rare combination of legal, tax, financial, and litigation expertise under one roof. The practice is built around a simple premise: most businesses are paying for fragmentation, separate attorneys, CPAs, and advisors who don't talk to each other.
Her clients are founders, operators, and entrepreneurs who want one attorney who understands all of it, entity structure, tax strategy, contracts, and the decisions that compound over time.
