Shabana Yar
Senior Associate
I believe in being honest, transparent and professional, maintaining good relationships with my clients and those in the legal community.
I pursued the legal path as I find the intellectual challenge appealing and I’m motivated by the sense that I can do something through my work to protect people’s rights. I’ve always been drawn to personal injury law, and it gives me great satisfaction to help those having a difficult time following an injury.
I prioritise understanding my client’s needs, taking a proactive approach to identify potential challenges and take necessary steps to prevent or resolve them. I strive to maintain transparency and clarity in my communications, helping clients understand their options and the entire claims process.

A highlight for me is the first time I appeared before the Supreme Court of NSW.
In my own time:
