About Iman Jomha

Iman's journey with Weir Bowen began in 2013 when she joined as a summer student, later transitioning into her articles with the firm in July 2015. With a particular focus on Medical Malpractice, Iman believes in a team approach to legal services and concentrates her practice on legal research and written advocacy at both the trial and appellate levels. Her commitment to excellence extends to her role as a sessional instructor at the University of Alberta Faculty of Law, teaching Medical Malpractice Law alongside Joseph Miller, KC.

Iman finds plaintiff’s work immensely rewarding, knowing that her efforts can positively impact the lives of families. Her belief in the importance of striving for justice and fair compensation for those injured by medical negligence, even in the face of challenges, is a driving force behind her work ethic.

Iman's joyful spirit is evident in her cheerful and positive demeanor, which she brings to every aspect of her work and interactions. Outside of work, she currently spends most of her time chasing after her young daughter but also enjoys gardening, travelling with her husband, camping and reading. Her love for nature and adventure is evident in her pursuits.

INDIGENOUS LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

The lands on which Edmonton sits and the North Saskatchewan River that runs through it have been the sites of natural abundance, ceremony and culture, travel and rest, relationship building, making, and trading for Indigenous peoples since time immemorial. Edmonton is located within Treaty 6 Territory and within the Metis homelands and Metis Nation of Alberta Region 4. We acknowledge this land as the traditional territories of many First Nations such as the Nehiyaw (Cree), Denesuline (Dene), Nakota Sioux (Stoney), Anishinaabe (Saulteaux) and Niitsitapi (Blackfoot).

Weir Bowen acknowledges the many First Nations, Métis and Inuit who have lived in and cared for these lands for generations. We are grateful for the traditional Knowledge Keepers and Elders who are still with us today and those who have gone before us. We make this acknowledgement as an act of reconciliation and gratitude to those whose territory we reside on or are visiting.
