“Here’s to the fools who dream, crazy as they may seem.” – La La Land


Shamimi believes that great things always start with a dream, and becoming a lawyer was hers. To her, being a good lawyer isn’t just about knowing the law; it’s about believing in something enough to fight for it. She became a lawyer because she dared to dream, and she stays because she’s committed to turning those dreams into bold, lasting impact.
