Rashida I Sims

I provide legal representation for veterans seeking to file bankruptcy and obtain VA disability benefits. Belle Legal, PLLC, is a modern, mission-based law firm dedicated to empowering clients and advocating for their best outcomes. With over a decade of legal experience, I bring my heart and strategic mind to every client I serve.

I am a proud Brooklyn, NY native and HBCU graduate. I took a non-traditional path from social services to attorney. Starting as a mental health provider instilled a deep commitment to providing intensive support and advocating for those in need. Becoming an attorney has allowed me to provide impactful legal solutions to those I serve.
