I was born and raised in Kinston, North Carolina.  Shortly after graduating from High School, I enlisted for a 6 year stint in the US Navy where I served as a Firecontrolman.  During that time, I did two Mediterranean Deployments, one North Atlantic Deployment, and several short operations in the Caribbean.. After the Navy, I returned to NC where I began working in the Research Triangle Park at night and attending classes at NCSU in the morning where I eventually obtained an undergraduate degree in Economics.. Immediately upon graduating from NCSU, I was accepted to and began law school at NCCU.  Since graduation, I have spent my time defending those who have been unfortunate enough to come into contact with law enforcement while allegedly committing a bad act.. I also offer help to those who are in need of a simple estate plan or perhaps having some issues with their marriage.

Before attending law school, Simon spent some time at Guilford Technical Community College in the Paralegal Program.  During that time I interned at the Superior Court Judge’s Chambers where I assisted Judge Eagles and Judge Davis in various administrative tasks and the occasional MAR review.. While attending law school, I was a volunteer teacher for the Street Law Program (teaching public school students about the legal system and current issues), Volunteer Income Tax Assistant (providing tax filing assistance to low income families), Latin American Coalition Volunteer (providing immigration assistance) and founding member and Secretary of the Arab-American Law Society.  He also interned for two semesters with the Mecklenburg County Public Defender representing indigent client with various misdemeanor charges.
