Mohsen Farshneshani is a U.S. sanctions attorney working with the sanctions nomination initiative team at DAWN. In his legal practice, Mohsen specializes in U.S. economic sanctions administered by OFAC, including compliance, licensing, enforcement, and SDN-List matters.

Throughout his career, he has been critical of the biased nature of U.S. foreign policy. Now, Mohsen works to seek long overdue adjustments to U.S. sanctions policy. His return to advocacy was inspired after recognizing the significant potential of sanctions in advancing accountability in Israel-Palestine.
He holds a Juris Doctor degree from Howard University School of Law, where he focused on international trade.
