Uri Shoham (Hebrew: אורי שהם; August 3, 1948) is a judge on the Supreme Court of Israel. His term began in 2012. He previously served as a district court judge in Tel-Aviv and a Judge Advocate General. His appointment to the court was viewed as a victory for Mizrahi Jews, as the court had previously been filled largely with people of Ashkenazi descent.

Shoham was born in Iraq on 3 August 1948 and moved to Israel with his family in 1951. From 1966-2001 he served in the Israeli Defense Forces, eventually reaching the rank of brigadier-general while serving in the military court of appeals.
In 2009, while serving as a district judge in Tel-Aviv, he imposed several long sentences on members of organized crime groups. Shoham was threatened by the crime groups, and he was given increased security by the police.
